I understand why you would feel bugged.....it sounds like T was clumsy and a bit oblivious or made a false assumption/perception that needs some correction. But I don't think she meant offense or was actually hostile.....
About the odd thing.....actually I have heard comments similar to that from both my past Ts, from the PA I saw and some in the hosp, that I 'liked the thought of being odd/eccentric/quirky and took pride in it/gloried in it'.....well, I guess I didn't like the way the 2nd part sounded. But then it was/is sort of true for me.....I do find a sort of pride in being quirky, marching to the beat of a different drum, being unconventional. However, some of them said it as if it was a sort of bad thing or a flaw or a problem I had.....and I don't think that's really true. 2nd T said it more as an observation and not a condemnation, and she didn't seem to think it was really a problem....it was just me being me..... The word 'odd' sometimes carries a negative connotation, but I don't think it necessarily has to.....
I hope your T does contact you and repair is possible, too......
