I have tons of resistance. I say 'I don't know a lot'. Lately, I've been trying to come back w/ a list in hand, and say well last time we talked about X and I thought about it and feel X.

I understand that... I try to not say that anymore but sometimes... I don't :-) Something to work on. Always. You may notice that sometimes (often) I use alot of dots when talking in these posts. At some point a guy said stop using those periods and tell me what you are thinking when you are making the dots. I thought that was interesting...and valid.. but I still do. :-)

I stopped at a local martini place and had two martinis. This made it easier but I wish I could talk freely. I did tell T that night that I had two martinis. Since I'm not an alcoholic I guess it wasn't an issue.

I like your finesse. Where there is a will there is a way sometimes. I have heard of some taking relaxants of other kinds. I am sure this would open the door for further discussion once the words got out to get you started.

As far as successes, I try to gage improvement in my outside life. Outside of the session.

My pdoc says that the work that we do in our relationship will translate hopefully to the outside world and that is how he guages success.
