I actually DO know one--ONE--human being who is stunned by own awesome x decent human being. But he didn't grow up SBOA, he sort of converted to it when he went from being the nice, shy, mildly geeky boy in high school to going on a mission for his church (where he shed the shy) and then attending a college where nice, religious boys are The Be All And End All of goals for 75% of the female students. It was an inflation to the ego, to say the very least.

He has the instincts and kindness of his childhood, and once he is married and out of his very unique circumstances I am sure he will stop being SBOA. I am willing to put up with him in the meantime.
