Just take a big breathe and say, "Look it, I've been coming in here for _ weeks, months, years and you've never once made a nice comment about me. All of the sudden I show you a picture of my brother's floozy girlfriend and you say she's really good looking. I found that insulting! What do you have to say for yourself?"

Oh hun... I don't know if I'm proud or shocked. My directness or "mouth" as I call it does tend to get me into trouble, but never with my therapist. I tend to think I use my "balls" as a cowardly way of avoiding what I really need
to be talking about though. But, if someone upsets me, I don't let it slide. You shouldn't either. Stick up for yourself. Especially when it comes to your therapist. Don't let him get away with that. I'm proud of you for making an effort of bringing it up. That takes courage!
