Hi Jazzy,

I don't know..but I feel like being originally from the deep South like you..I wouldn't appreciate her for what she is doing for a slightly different reason. Back home..we can get superficial really quick and be very nice and still cut you to the quick... but true friends in the South are the ones that will be very direct with you and the ones that will speak from the heart and call a spade a spade. You know a true friend because they will call you on your "stuff" and won't let you slide. The friends that don't really care are the ones that butter you up and blow sunshine up your skirts. Please don't laugh, but the first time my T tried to compliment me, I flat out accused him to his face of tring to "blow sunshine up my ***** and told him I wouldn't be coming back if that's all he was good for..." Needless to say, he's very sparing with them now, but I always know they are "real" and meaningful to me.

I would say your T comes as close to deep affection as possible when she cares enough about you to confront you and not let you dangle in the wind and hurt yourself in the end. True affection is hard, and means effort and really working with the people you cherish to help them be the best they can be...not just making them feel pretty... I hope you will still let her know that the occasional healing word, praise or hug would help the 'medicine go down'...so to speak..I'll bet she'd be surprised and grateful for the heads up. Nothing wrong with asking for a hug or just the right kind of praise when you need that too.

As for the emails, look at it this way, even though for whatever reason she had to set the boundary that she would not email out (many are doing that for fear of emailing TO the wrong client...) she definitely made it VERY clear that she still wants to receive your emails, and wants to hear about you outside of session, and to think of you when you are not around...that's pretty awesome! Perhaps you could begin to ask for the first 5 min of your sessions to be her time to respond to some of what you have 'put out there' for her in your emails? I bet she'd go for it if you went ahead and asked to "schedule" it in to your session time... That way perhaps you are asking for what you need within the bounds of what she can give..

I'd rather have a Weezer than just another belle at the ball at my back any day of the week... PTL and pass the ammunition...!

Boy I miss the double blooming azaleas and iris, the dogwoods growing wild and the tall pines clacking gently in the wind when it storms...with the frogs chatting and a lone train in the distance...hmmm

(but maybe not so much the traffic on 285 and 400..lol)

Peachy huggles just for you...
