I'm not sure what to say, Chopin, but I want to support you. You and your T have a special relationship, and you just gave her the beautiful poem and the bracelet. So, this problem deserves the time it takes to work it all out.

I'm a little confused about something. Did you choose this T because your religious views were similar? Did you already know her beliefs? I'm asking because if she thought you and she were on the same wavelength regarding faith, I can understand why she said what she did. If not, then it appears that her statements are out-of-line.

I used to see a T who had the same religious views as I do, so I can imagine her telling me things that others would find inappropriate. If I were at a different level, religiously speaking, I would have been offended.

I hope you can tell your T that you believe differently from her, and can tell her all of your reactions. It sounds like it's going to be difficult, but I think you and she can get through this!
