so sorry kk for missing the conference call and not chewing him out for you. next week conference me in. :)
but good on you for telling him how you felt about bringing up issues you weren't comfortable discussing.
i don't think he purposefully tried to hurt you, kk. please excuse the stereotyping, but you know how men are. :D i think he was trying to respect your boundaries but his good intentions went awry. just a simple foot-in-mouth syndrome maybe? you said he was not experienced at doing group, i think it's a symptom of inexperience rather than malice.
it doesn't matter what other people think about you leaving group (babblers or bubba). what matters is what you think. what were you trying to accomplish by joining the group? do you think you are going to accomplish your goals? it's tough.
