hehe... I like that, one lost, 10 found!

Actually memreh is reminding me of my friend Bud... He really tried to act in a way to conceal part of what he was really like, even though in other ways he stubbornly clung to being what he felt comfortable being. Anyhow, his real qualities were there in the beginning, but now it is coming out more so because he feels more comfortable being himself. And now I'm thinking oh he is a dud, do I want to hang with him this much? But on the other hand he has been a great friend. One thing bud has done is refused to force himself to be someone he isn't in a lot of ways. So it sounds to me like your guy put on a bit of an act and he just can't keep it up. Anyhow just a couple of bobs worth..............~~

ps... as far as I'm concerned relationships are confusing!
