Even though I am married, I can still relate to your situation of not fathoming I could be a blip on anyone's radar screen let alone an important part of his/her life. Like Dinah said, you can sit me down all day along and explain why I am not burdensome, unlovable, etc. and point to events in my life that caused that irrational thinking, and I will understand, but it will have absolutely no impact on how I see myself. OK, this isn't helpful for your situation, but I just wanted you to know that I understand.
What does your therapist think about this, or have you shared it?
I also know, hearkening back to your earlier discussion about energy therapy, that one of the goals of energy therapy is to reverse those long-held beliefs that you *know* are wrong but can't feel in your soul. Could your therapist use energy therapy techniques on this particular core belief?
