you're welcome canders

It is interesting...at least when Im the mirror LOL don't like it so much the other way around. Luckily LL hasn't gotten that comfortable in predicting my moods and so on ...YET.

She doesn't "mirror" with me. and to be honest she doesn't need to she's bold and says it the way it is. If she doesn't like something she tells me flat out, and if she sees me going the wrong way she says either "I wish you wouldn't go there" or "No don't go there"

SKR and I would slip into "mirroring" and yea it included the two of us being sarcastic and B-itchy at times. We were able to let loose like that with each other because we both had total trust in each other and knew that when those times happened it was for a reason not for hurting and disrespecting each other. During therapy time we had the type of relationship where we were 100% honest with each other and went with the flow if one or the other of us was in a sad, or sacastic or happy and so on down the list of feelings we went with it and took it where ever it ended up. I remember this one day I wasn't feeling so hot just plan crabby and SKR came to my house and the first words out of my mouth was a sarastic "busy day today huh?" She calmly shut my door , put her purse down took her suit jacket off and at the same time said back to me in the same tone and attitude I gave her "Yup I'm running late again" she did it in such perfect imitation of me that I couldn't help but laugh and say "well at least you weren't in la la land" and she said back keeping a straight face and attitude "no but you were the last time I talked to you so Whats up?" then she broke her mirror too and gave me a hug.
