Awwwww, I didn't mean to make you cry.
My dad (in the biological sense) made liberal use of a belt as discipline - for just about anything. I learned not to cry, because the crying gave him some kind of perverse pleasure. As I grew up it became one of my main defenses. That and the permanent happy face.
It is NOT manipulative to test. It's a valuable, learned, survival instinct. In fact, I have problems with people that pour their hearts out to anyone that will listen. Or at least I don't believe that they are really *problems*.
Have you sent hem (email) any of the stuff off of wingofmadness.com? I couldn't for the life of me explain what depression *felt* like, but there is a page that describes it perfectly. I sent it to hubby and it made a difference. He get's it now.
I sent him http://www.wingofmadness.com/articles/whatis.htm and, even better http://www.wingofmadness.com/blog/feel/index.php There are others that also explain what it feels like.
Remember - men are fixers. If something is broken they want to make it better.
