I dont have the pushy problem, both of us are so cautious around each other 
its awkward alot of the time.  I wish we lived closer so the communication 
that we do wouldnt cost so much.  I never know what to tell him, and he says 
the questions he has he doesnt ask cuz he doesnt want to be pushy!!  I guess 
there is no mistaken that we are related.  Its hard too he has 4 sons by 2 
marriages and one of the sons who i speak to often doesnt really get along 
with my b-dad and i feel sometimes like my brother wants me to choose sides, 
i did tell him (gently) that i wouldnt do that.  I dont think he got the 
message, i get the feeling that i joined up with a family that is in a small 
family feud and it makes me nervous.  i will keep you posted thanks for 
listening. janelle
