I thought maybe I was being hypercritical. But, at least I've never noticed him picking anything. *wink* That would be rather gross. I might be tempted to say something, but not to my therapist. But, I doubt mine would do it. He's (almost) perfect in the manner department. He always gets water before the session and even though I always stop off for coffee he always asks if I'd like some water. He burped once, but I didn't hear it. I was busy talking but he excused himself anyway. I stopped midsentence to ask why he said excuse me. I almost wish I hadn't. My therapist doesn't burp! Nope, I must have heard wrong :)
And he compliments me on simple things, which I like. I have a pair of red boots. And when I wear them, he always says he likes them. And my clothes. He always mentions something about my clothes. I like that too. Or if I get my hair colored or fixed. He mentions that. He should stick to the compliments that I appreciate and stray from the ones I don't. But, he always pokes fun at the fact that I wear tall shoes (because I'm 5'10). I always tell him it's because it makes me as tall as him, therefore I don't feel inferior to him if we are the same height. I'm only half joking.
