Thanks for stopping by. Sorry that you're in the same OM boat as me (as well as a bazillion others here). Sounds like you OM's bad side isn't as obvious as most. Don't worry, it will come out when the proper pressure is applied by DBing.
I considered my W's OM a friend before he crossed the line. So I can see why W has picked him. He's got all kinds of flaws but unfortunately he's a good validater and their interests are exactly the same. I sucked at listening and validating and he excelled at it. Over the last year W has seen OM's flaws and that's why I think if I DBed in the right way over the past few months that we'd be much closer to actually working on the M. Would'a could'a should'a.
