Sometimes it is really scary to share our growth and insights. And it can set off a chain reaction of worry about being too together (But I'm not done yet!) or not hearing him say loudly enough, "exactly - that is exactly how I feel too." Because then we wonder if this is all really just one sided.
And I imagine that there is some panic about reconnecting on a Monday, with a suddenly short session and staying in your head (from what you wrote) most of the time. All those feelings came roaring out later. All the disappointment and longing and probably wanting something from him that you didn't even know at the time you wanted and needed. I'm betting that the need to run is partly due to the intensity of the hurt and the surprise of it. Ug - I hate sessions that go that way.
I'd ask for a do over - a mulligan. Did you call and let him know you were upset?
I hope you feel better tomorrow.
