In reply to my former T :( :( :( LONG, posted by Dory on November 12, 2007, at 14:56:32
(((((Dory)))) I know you are hurting about this and I am so sorry this happened. I do agree with the others though. BOth of my therapists have told me that I would have extend the greeting first. Maybe he did notice you a long time befoe you saw him, and since you didn't say anything, maybe he thought you wanted privatecy. Even my old T said that he won't say hi to a client, unless they say something first. He is protecting your privatecy on this. I don't think it has anything to do with you personally. In most cases they need to be safe then be sorry if they messed up. I think it would be a different situation if you actually said hi to him and then he ignored you, then that would be rejecting you. But in this case, I think he was just protecting your private life. My family doctor is the same way.
