Thanks you guys!
Now I have two Larry mantras:
"Expectations are premeditated disappointments."
"My feelings are not subject to questioning, by anyone. Even me."
It helps to know other people have gone through this. What makes our mothers that way?
My old T helped me with stuff like this, but I guess I need a refresher course. (Although, I am a long way from where I once was - no self esteem or independence AT ALL). I need to find a new T soon. I'd like to find one that can also help me with expecting things out of people and being disappointed. Its all got to be related somehow. What would you call that anyway, 'interaction skills'? I just had a scary thought, am I somehow acting like my mother in social situations?
8-o That's my attempt at a screaming face.-T
