> Now what good is that? He called while I was getting ready to see him to tell me that he realized that he had forgotten to call me yesterday. That he started to call me several times, but forgot or got distracted then it slipped his mind.
>
> Wow. I feel better. Love to be forgotten and mind slipped.*UGH!!! Manoman, my oldT said same type things! It would SO piss me off. DUUUUUUUUUUHHHHH, do they NOT have a clue how that must come across????? Like twice my T said when I say to her 'we never go for a walk, you said we might walk...', she wrote or phoned and said 'oh I WAS going to phone you but my kids came over for a visit and talked and talked...' OH...OK so your kids who you see at least several times a week made you completely dump me, wh you not seen in THREE weeks....OOOOOOOOOOO K....I feel valued....
Sigh.
Guess the T's are only human....
> I also realized why I'm more annoyed with him than usual. Last session he made a joke about my mother driving me to slit my throat. I sorta don't find that funny.* I hope you tell him that, he should know that comment was in poor taste.
> Plus, I think I'm sick. Cold or allergies. That probably is influencing my views too. :(
*ya, stress can make you more susceptable to illness, and illness makes things more stressful....arrrgggh.
You'll get thru this.
Tough row to hoe. (I was a farmer)
Take care,
Be kind but FIRM in explaining to T what you want/need from him, and ask him point blank, is he willing to step up to the plate for you cuz this is a REALLY hard time for you, and FORGETTING to call just does NOT cut it.
Take care,
M
(PS...as for my fate, thats what makes it seem inevitable....cuz oddly, it does not seem a bad fate to me...if it is my choice to do so...)
