Heck, I'm just glad you responded. I was so interested in confirmation that for the first time on this forum, I considered PM-ing you and asking you if you wouldn't mind returning to this thread. I didn't obviously, purely out of respect and a desire not to cross a boundary. Thanks for coming back.

Absolutely supportive. At first glance, the idea that I care what others think of me seems pretty far-fetched, but of course that doesn't mean that it is. I know that I am capable of 'not making waves' by going along, but usually that is only when I am completely uninvested in the relationship and simply looking for the interaction to be over.
I'm going to reflect on it nevertheless and see if there is something there. My wife and I will discuss it today. She's incredibly perceptive and knows me better than anyone, so her input will be interesting.
