I'm on the edge of crisis right now. I know he didn't intentionally do this. But it happened and I need to try and cope, because its to late to get in touch with him.
I'm wondering what you hope will be learned from all of this....Is it that you're hoping T will learn that the topic is off limits? Or perhaps learn that you can talk about difficult things with some trust and security in the relationship - and without it turning into something catastrophic? Although making the topic off limits would certainly be easier - and it may very well be what you need to get by for now - it would be a great success to work towards the latter.
