I only had an intro to psychology class at MSU, and that was 25 years ago. But gut instinct tells me something is wrong here. It may well be a defense mechanism, and perhaps at some point he will crack and go into some kind of crisis. Kind of the way I did. I was the eternal pessimist, but I always thought "at some point, they will break me" and it finally happened.

Grass wire, it's nice of you to look out for him. I have a thought. There must be psychology forums out there online, there are forums for everything. Maybe you could find one, register, and ask the question there? Just a thought.
