> Do I just need to take a leap? But it doesn't seem like he is ready for that....He is SOOOOO relaxed that the room could collapse and he would still be mellow. Argh.Hi,
I think the others have given great responses. I agree with what's been said so far. Something struck me, though. You said you weren't sure if he was ready for you to "take a leap". I'm not sure what you mean by that. What are you looking for in him for him to seem "ready"? And/or could it be that not seeming "ready" is really part of your own feelings and fears and not his state? This might also be an area to talk about with him that might help get the ball rolling...Good luck! Therapy is hard work, and I admire anyone who puts themselves out there like that.
