Humor As A Defense Mechanism -- Why?

(just don't marry one...)

My son would agree w/you on that one.

Hee, hee - Mary, he's too young for me - or I'm too old for him - or something!

From what you have said, he has a professional attitude. Some....don't! (I'm sure you have heard some stories from him... )

Oh, of course. He knows that all comics have their angst, which is what makes some of them so funny. But he's on the road so much that every woman he's ever dated has started out saying that it wouldn't bother her but it always has. Understandable. My ex-husband traveled a lot in his line of work and it definitely contributed to the demise of our marriage.
