Talking on the phone is not the same if you are in the vicinity to see her. I hope both of you can figure it out together.

I know that it would not be the best possible thing for me. But neither would drinking a soda instead of water or eating some candy instead of a vegetable. But we all do it sometimes. She did say that she thought we had a good pace going (I'm in the middle of trauma work), and that she doesn't want to disrupt that. And the situation surrounding my moving would benefit from the support. And I think all of that makes it more painful and difficult. I guess I don't see why she would want to spend the time helping me when she doesn't have anything to gain from it. And that makes me even more suspicious of her maybe wanting to do something to gain power and influence over me.
I know I'm being stubborn and difficult. But the fear and anxiety of this situation is making me even more headstrong than normal.
