idk why they had a problem. they looked shocked. they say stuff like, "wow, do you always talk like that?" I think they don't want to get into the habit because some clients don't like it. My current T is a child psychologist, so I can see that; my prev T had a lot of brain-injured clients, so I can see it there too. so I guess I was a one-off, more or less, but maybe they thought it just didn't suit me?
