HOW DID THE MAN CAVE FORUM GET STARTED?

In January 2010 your three co-hosts were part of a tour group that was visiting Egypt. We knew each other but only casually. The first day of the trip was a very traumatic day for one of us - a long term relationship was falling apart. The pain was obvious and he asked to have dinner with his two fellow tourists. At dinner he unloaded about what was troubling him. The two companions listened. He then asked, "What do you think?" Well, what happened next was magical. Instead of affirmations of his hurt feelings, they asked very pointed questions to find out the truth and his feelings.

These conversations continued each night at dinner for many nights to come. The topics shifted to everything under the sun. Friendship and trust blossomed.

About four or five days into the vacation the ladies in the tour group noticed the three men going off each night to talk. One evening as we walked toward the restaurant to join in our nightly bonding time - one of the ladies shouted to us, "Have fun in The Man Cave."

After a few more days we found many more people joining us each night. We talked about anything and everything. Everyone that joined the discussion group enjoyed the safety of the group and how any topic could be discussed without judgment or the need to solve a problem. We assisted each other to find each person's own answers.
