hi fairywings,
I'm sorry that your T didn't seem to get your pain, and I'm sorry that your hubby wasn't doing a good job of listening.About your T -- since you've been with him a relatively short while, is it possible that he's just trying to help, but may be pushing too hard too soon? I'm sure he only wants you to feel better and lay down the guilt and suffering that you don't deserve to be carrying. Maybe he's wondering if you have any secret ideas or hopes or thoughts on ways you could make the pain go away? Sometimes people have ideas but are afraid to talk about them.
I suppose it's not bad to start talking about it. Even if you can't put it behind you NOW, maybe you can think about a future where that DOES happen, and what that future would look like for you. Would you be happier, more carefree, etc. Maybe that would slowly over time help you get there, just to think about the goal?
Is it possible to move on without forgiving? (I don't know...I'm just asking.)
I hope things get clearer as you go on. Take care.
JenStar
