It's about the attention, and T knows I always want her complete attention. I didn't get it in RLfrom her because I didn't pay for it. I got SOME of it, which is usually good enough, but not this time when it's a movie scene!!!!
I didn't want attention as a child, but I did underneath. When you're shy you get ignored a lot. I don't know. I wanted attention, but I didn't. This is SO confusing. I'm sure I discussed it in therapy at some point, so why can't I let it go already? I've got more important stuff to focus on right now; my brain can't handle this stress from the past, and I'm just rambling on and on for no reason.
The only reason I can think of, and I say it b/c I kept going back for more from dt is that I want to reply it with myself as getting what I want out of the scene. Where I win and finally un-do all of the mother-hurt. I FINALLY didnt fail. I FINALLY got her love! And I am soothed, happy and am a good little girl. All loved-up. At last. How comforting to have the scene go my way in my fantasy. Where you are the grandchild over and over again. I dont know, does that fit? Thats what it might be for me.
