I'm a virgo.

I really think that if I can just stick to the plan and really tell him I need to be the one to talk, he will respond accordingly. Like the old saying, "you teach people how to treat you". I think I just taught him that I'm gonna sit there like a lump on a log and he might as well try to impart some wisdom.

A dialogue in therapy really sounds nice.
