Yep, you nailed it lotus. I want to know "why" I am like this (I always ask "why", about everything, hence my user name). But i wonder if I wouldn't be better off trying to just accept that I am and just go forward from here. Instead of rooting around in my past with my T to bring up possible causes/origins. But the wanting to know "why" is so ingrained into me, I may be my own worst enemy in that sense.
