Okay, so I waited until the last 5 minutes to bring it up, and left with him laughing at me and me trying to say it wasn't ME, it was somebody here on PC, and he goes, no you sounded like your mother to me, and I was laughing so hard my stomach was hurting again. Because I really did sound like my mother trying to dodge responsibility for feelings, I could hear it too. It was absolutely eerie. He has said it before, but I never HEARD her voice and logic coming out of my mouth like I did today. So painful! We haven't worked out the issue (pretty much the same as Rainbow8's), but I knew I was projecting, and I admitted it, and I am just SO glad we have this easygoing yet respectful of each other's intelligence type of r/s.
