Adam the Adult
I see less of him these days. He was everpresent in my 20s and 30’s. He got the job done. He made sure I got to work and persevered despite the odds often against him. He bought and helped pay a house and car off. Kind of heroic but he ignored Ruminator Ron and Analystical Alan so much so they ceased to exist. He denied there was any chaos in the room. He often said “Man up Jack” He was more interested in appearances but also pragmatic: the bills always paid on time.
He needs to come back so I can find and keep a job. But on different terms. he needs to lighten up and not be so tough on the other members. he needs to have a more democratic approach, instead of a macho “my way or the highway” approach.
