I read your post in another thread about him not responding to your email, your distress and your suspicions of his wife. Seemed like the transference issues were still in full force and this was a T relationship that just wasn't going to work.
So please allow me to congratulate you on your good judgment, strength and courage in this matter! You have wisely chosen to work with a different T, for very good reasons. I wish you the best.

Snakecharmer, I always appreciate your thoughts; you seem to often have useful insights on my threads! I am glad I waited until now to make a decision on whether to go back to him. I think the notion of only being on a break with him helped to bridge the gap until my trust in T2 started to emerge.
I asked him about the email and he said he hadn't received it; I still wonder why that is, but I suppose it doesn't matter. I don't think that effect of the transference could ever lessen. It would always cause me hurt if I continued to see him. I also don't think he has the experience or skill set to help me work through the transference. And I now know that I
need to work through it.
