Hi Dawn, so good to hear from you. obviously we were posting at the same time. I've wondered about the performance anxiety issue, just never knew it to be an issue for him. Of course, we've never been in this kind of a "pickle" before.
You and Debra are right, I believe, that I need to let him know I am willing to listen to whatever is upsetting him if he wants to share it....and you're absolutely right that I need to steel myself to deal with what he may need to say. I guess it could be taken as uncaring that I don't offer to hear what he might want to share. I've worried that it would seem intrusive or pursuing, but I guess the important thing would be to let him know it's up to him, and to be willing but not pushy. Boy these are tricky sitchs, arent they?
