I'm so glad you were able to talk to your Old T, and that you have such a mature and empowering plan for moving forward next time you see New T. Good for you  |
Tree, thank you so much for sharing this. It's an amazing bookend to this whole question of how
each party handles it when tension, conflict, rupture take place in T. Your T sounds amazing--thoughtful, human, generous, and very skilled. You've got a very good egg there.
Jury's still out on mine. But at least I've got my feet under me again and know I can sort it out.
Thank you again SO much for your support and wisdom.
