That's exactly it. Courage. You said the perfect word. This is where I continue to falter. I will build it up and it takes a millisecond for him to say one word or do one thing and I find myself cowering with my tail between my legs trying to make it better (for him). Courage....I have none. Never have when it came to other people.
