Figuring out what makes Flat tick is part of letting him continue to rail about things like this and the danger of sesame seeds and I have erased most of the other topics from my mind.
Carry on - no harm, no foul.
Thanks, that's nice of you to say
The main thing is though, I didn't want to put him on the spot. So for instance I know a lot of people with Aspergers that are perfectly happy to talk about it, so I guess I was just kind of putting out the feelers to see if that or similar was the case here too, but since it doesn't seem to be the case, the last thing I want to do going forward is speculate about someone's mental state... that's not my place. Just as I wouldn't feel comfortable with others trying to psychoanalyse me without me being a willing participant in the conversation.
People do armchair psychologising on Internet forums all the time. If I didn't want to hear a lot of psychologizing, I wouldn't be here.
