Yup, I have a theory on him now, where before I just. didn't. get it. Now I think he's caving to perceived expectations, which aren't the same as mine, since he's an immigrant and there are substantial portions of his family who never learned English and rely on him. Not sure they understand some of his recent decisions and he's now in this quandry trying to reconcile stuff.
Whatever. I don't really want to be yanked around either, but it's still new, trying to redefine boundaries. Plus, I don't know whether I'm going to challenge him on it yet, so to some degree I'm complicite.
I've started reading Standing. It's really elegant so far. I forgot how much I liked this pairing...
