In an early session with my cbt T, he used the word "we" a lot. I know he was building rapport but this "we" business ---it sometimes it didn't really work.

Here is this sleek, good looking guy telling me that as "we hit middle age, we struggle maintaining our weight."

Tried not to smile as I kept thinking, "Dude, what is this "we" you keep talking about? Do you have a chubby mouse in your pocket???"
Thanks for this!
