He didn't even say goodbye or that he was leaving, I just assume he has since I haven't heard from him, and because of my horribleness and neediness, not to mention all my transference. I scared him away. My new t picked up on this right away. When he asked if I had been attracted to my ex-t, and I said yes, new t said that ex-t must have been scared.
For all I know, maybe he has moved out of state by now. Maybe he ran like h*** to get as far away from me as possible.

I guess this is what confuses me...termination sessions are, as others have stated here, usual in an "ethical" termination (barring unforeseen circumstances). But you say here that you weren't "technically in therapy with him?" How many times did you meet with him before he said you should meet with someone in your area? I guess I am trying to understand the nature of the relationship.
Regardless, I can tell you are in pain and I hope you are able to work through this with your new T.
