Hi Eurydice, I think it would be a very good idea to bring this up in therapy with him. The way you see him is more about you than him; and it is related to what you need to be working on in therapy right now (ED, self-perception and perception of others, etc). Why this leads to trust issues is also something to explore. Please don't be afraid to bring this up with him.
