I don't know how you normally pay for sessions but I don't think it is very respectful to make a therapist wait because you wanted to buy something else , if it was a case of financial emergency then It would maybe be more understandable. I'm sorry if that is hurtful but its how I see it and as someone else said...we don't expect other people to wait so why should our therapist?

No your comments aren't hurtful. It came down to this. There was something I wanted that in future may cost more money to purchase. So I wanted to get it quickly rather then wait and it potentially going up in price, Had it been something else, I may have been able to wait and save gradually.
I didn't expect the T to wait for her money. I was a little annoyed with the T and decided to put myself first. It is selfish, but I knew I would pay her, it wasn't like I was not going to pay her and disappear. Although it was an impulsive buy. I saw something, bought it, then thought I best email the T to let her know.
