I think it's kind of a wait and see kind of thing. It's one thing to know and understand it all, and another thing to experience one. My gf has learned as much as she can on the subject and still finds it rather hard to deal with me when I get one. He seems to be doing the right thing by becoming educated on the subject and I do wish you the best of luck when the time comes, hopefully it doesn't come until you two establish a stronger relationship.
