But convincing me he *cares*? Ha! That's a good one. My definition doesn't allow him in there anywhere. Because nothing will make me believe him if he uses the word "care."

Yes, that's trust; you believing he cares. Of course, you don't have to trust him, don't even have to try to trust him. You're not a clam or wild horse he'll break. But no amount of money can get someone to "pretend" to care as you assume he's doing, just a job. Think of the job from his end; could you sit hour after hour, day after day, client after client for money? There must be something else? Any sort of relationship is built on trust. There is no relationship if there is no trust. He wants a relationship with You, not deep dark secrets. But you're wanting ???

Your definition of caring seems to involve scenarios that take place when you're not there. Little hard to confirm or deny aren't they? What does caring mean to you when you're "there" to be cared about?
