Yeah, I think being a grown man whose hormones no longer rage it's a reasonable reaction especially as advice to give someone else besides yourself. To me it was just a reminder of being young, dumb and a little too eager. I think most boys/young men have had that one they yearned for that stomped on their heart like a roach without even realizing it.

"In America, we learn from our setbacks as well as our successes and although the lessons of failure are hard, they're often the most important on the road to progress. We've learned in these past few months that we are frail and fallible, but we have also learned that we have the courage to face our faults and the strength to correct our errors. Because we don't hide our mistakes, we are not condemned to repeat them. Because we are an open society we have room to grow. We can count on their courage to pull us through the hard places." Ronald Reagan, from his remarks on the Rogers Commission (Challenger disaster review board)
“He who dares not offend cannot be honest.”
