Every time this happens to me I feel like I'm stupid for caring. He wants me to get vulnerable, but how does that happen? How do you open up to someone who doesn't really care about you? I can see if I emailed him all the time this being the response, but how can I feel cared for when I know that if the **** hit's the fan he is not going to be there for me. I know he cant be there for me, but I mean not even there for me in the sense of sending back a sentence or two, "I'm sorry, let's talk about that next time." God, I'm not even a therapist but I've had clients email me stuff venting... "my wife was diagnosed with cancer" or "my kid is in the hospital." I cant ignore that, my job isn't even therapy but I still reply as a human being.
