I'm sensitive and you need to be gentle with me. When you are tough, I just want to pull away from you. Then I feel hopeless because I don't know how to work things out on my own and I don't want to go shopping for a new T.

I don't want "therapy," I just want someone to talk to. I just want you to sit there, listen, and nod along with what I'm saying. I hurt and I just need someone who is willing to try to understand and offer some compassion. If I'm to blame for what has happened, I need someone to help me shoulder the burden.
