ShortE,
I've never told him I thought he was perhaps a little gleeful to have freed up his schedule by not seeing me so often. I would never bring that up as I'm sure he would never admit it even if it were true. But, in the back of my mind, I think he must be thinking this.
And I haven't felt rushed at all. It was a mutual decision to go down to twice a month. And for me, I've been doing well with that. I don't miss the once a week therapy so much as I miss seeing him once a week.
I know I need to give myself more credit, that I am indeed a likeable and pleasant person and he probably thinks so too. Well, at least he says he does. HE says I am a remarkable, intelligent, funny, and creative person. When we were role playing last week, talking to an empty seat pretending it was my father, he told my "father" that I was an extraordinary person and that he has really missed out on having a wonderful daughter.
However, a large part of me knows that is his job to say those things.
