Thanks for not using the "G" word! Or is it words?
I don't know... My feelings about my therapist have always been very mixed, and I think I've always been relatively critical of his weaknesses, so I doubt that I ever saw him as perfect.
And I'm not always that graceful in my disappointment. :)
I suppose the difference might be... I don't know... I love him more now as a person and not just as my therapist/mommy? So that the weaknesses don't bring as much anger as they used to, and more affectionate caring?
I guess I do miss the old days. I didn't think he was perfect but I did have a greater belief in his magic. Although I still manage to hold on to that.
But... I still wish he'd try to stretch to meet my needs. Isn't that his job?
Ah well. If he's not willing, he wouldn't be all that good at it anyway. And he's clear that he's not that willing.
