I can be overly needy sometimes and I've had this discussion with my group T. Some things have come up that made me feel left out/jealous. So I finally got up the courage and told him about it. It took me a few tries, three actually, to really explain where I was hurting and why. It turned out to be a good thing that I told him because we were able to do something to make me feel better.

He calls it "asking for what you need"

I've been working very hard on asking for what I need.

It's important to tell your T about your feelings in regards to your request for his email and him giving it to your roommate. I think it's pretty big that he allows you to text. Not a lot of Ts do that.
