Yes there are a lot of similarities and, get this, I even thought that Chrome looked like him minus 7 inches or so! And I vaguely resemble Chrome's wife. Weird, eh.
H has horrible self esteem, one of the things that he rather easily admits.
As far as men accessing their feelings, you think so? I find that H definitely *has* emotions but they are nowhere near as frequent or intense as my own. Only as it concerns religion do I see any real passion from him. (and by passion I mean intense emotion, obviously)
Or.....how's this. He's emotional but not verbal about it. He feels but has a hard time putting it into words. Nor is he all that inclined to try. He'd rather go DO something. That's what I meant about typical.
I do take the people-pleaser-but-not-necessarily-my-wife stuff as a compliment. He does try to please me, for sure, but he stops short of anything that might require him to step out of his comfort zone. Well, that's not entirely true. He stops short of making OutsideComfortZone behavior a regular part of his life. He doles it out occasionally and hopes that will suffice.
