What they say, what we hear

Posted by shortelise on August 12, 2004, at 13:15:53

I read many of us write "my T said ... blah blah".
Often when I say to my T, "last week you said ... blah blah" he tells me, no he didn't say that. And he tells me what he did say, and yes, I recognize it. I twisted what he said, heard it through my own perverse filters, through the twists of my psyche.
Sometimes when I start to obsess about what he has said, I have the good sense to ask him what he actually said. He has learned to take copious notes with me because I do this so often!
What do others think about this? Do you do it, too?
