Hi Everyone,

Firstly, I'd like to say think you again for all the responses that I've gotten. They have been invaluable to me.

Secondly, I have another question about Brian's recent behavoir change. He called me to say that he has a second job now and that he won't be able to see or talk to me as much. I congratulated him. This new Brian that I have been talking to seems like a totally different person. What can cause this? Is it possible that he wuold develop a new personality?

Thank you.
 
tservo,

In principle I would say it's unlikely he is developing a new personality. A much better possibility is that he just wants to set different boundaries about who he wants to see and under what circumstances. This may be just a temporary situation, depending on what he has in mind by doing that.

Much love,
Larry
 
I agree with Larry; he may just be learning to state and enforce boundaries. Also, I have seen that sometimes as people turn a corner in their healing, they no longer feel as comfortable around the friends they had before. Maybe they feel like their role in that relationship is tied too closely to the person they used to be, or have mixed feelings about some of their prior behaviors.
 
Thanks for the replies. I would be so sad if I didn't get to hear from him again. I'd like to see him as he heals.
