> Whenever I worry out loud about boring my T, he says "this is not about me." I love that...Really?! Or are you being sarchastic? I hate it when he says anything like that. Because for me, sometimes it *is* about how he feels. And when he says it's not, it's like he's decided to ignore half of what's going on in the room.
I understand that they're supposed to be there to help you and not to gratify their own needs. But if I'm worrying aloud about being boring, I'd feel a heck of a lot better if he said he wasn't bored than if he said I shouldn't worry about him. The latter makes me think I hit the nail on the head. And that it's "not appropriate" to talk about that, so he won't admit it. Sigh.
