So the appointment was interesting. I had told him I wanted a consult, but toward the end, he just seemed to assume I was starting therapy with him. I reminded him about the consult part and that I was unsure if I was just being overly reactive to the stuff with my current T, and running away, or whether I was acting in self preservation to stop therapy with him. Consult T said he was not sure either. He said he thought there were some red flags in the relationship with current T, but did not elaborate on that. We agreed to meet again to discuss it more.

I mentioned that I had wondered if current T's sudden change to me being 'just a client' and not special at all was due to him getting spooked by something in a continuing ed class that panicked him about how open he had been about how he felt about me. Consult T kind of laughed and said that was the most likely explanation because it's the season for finishing up continuing ed requirements.
