Million dollar question. Idk if you've seen my previous threads, but I recently went on a 5 month trip. T said I could e-mail her while I was away. Various things happened, and I got the impression this was special to me. This was VERY meaningful to me, but it did also scare me to death. BUT...I worked very, very hard while I was away to trust that she cared, to let myself admit that it mattered to me one way or the other, and to admit I cared.

I found out a few weeks ago that I had misunderstood her. It was something she'd done with other clients. She doesn't believe in doing something special to show that you care. But I did all that work because I thought she's gone out on this limb. It still scared me, but I pushed through.
