I could be wrong, but i sense from your posts that it's very important for you to be seen as not needing her or depending on her? What does being dependent mean to you, is that a shameful thing?
Yes, that's how it felt to me...but that isn't actually what she was saying; she even said explicitly that I had made some really good changes and it was really rewarding for her to see that in me...and yes it is SUPER important for me not to depend on her because a) she doesn't want me to and b) old baggage...
