HPB,

I couldn't figure out why your message below was so ... umm.... curt. I had to have my W explain it to me since I sometimes lack in social graces.

I apologize for my antisocial behavior.

No, I don't have it all figured out. I need lots of help. So how would you feel about letting me do a do-over?...

I'm pretty excited that in addition to help from this forum, I'll be able to get help from Dr. Harley! happy about that.

So thanks for your help and your interest. I'll keep working on my attitude and surrendering my life to God. Any help or advice you can give me is much appreciated.

Well... Yes.

I guess I was trying to say that:

I had a habit of gawking. Then when I stopped gawking, I was still scanning - hoping for something to gawk at..even if I never found anything to gawk at, my eyes were on the hunt.

So now I'm not gawking or scanning, but I'm targeting "safe" objects up and away from all people - so now I don't even see people when I'm in a crowded room.

But this info would only help someone who is trying to quit gawking and scanning. To those who don't gawk or scan, it just looks like my trying to put lipstick on a pig.

So bottom line: I've stopped.

do over accepted....

You made the best statement possible, right here;

"I had to have my W explain it to me"

It means you took the time to talk with her and asked one of the wisest people in your life for some help with understanding. Bravo!

This is the core of Psalm 3:5-6

Meeting my wife's EN's is my "thank you" that refuses to be silenced.
