I thought it was progress also Leah but when he didn't even acknowledge it then or in session today, I just want to shut down on him. I really like him and think he is an awesome man (he has some forgetful issues which is what I always blow things off to), but I don't understand this one. I can't imagine even partially caring about another persons well being and telling them to 'take your Xanax and then start figuring it out". I really resisted texting him at all for a very long time and had to PUSH to get past that. I kept thinking if I was ever going to try reaching out and it MIGHT be ok, it would be with him. He kept saying to text if I needed him. Then when I did, I feel like the kid who gets her hand slapped for having it in the cookie jar after being told I could have a cookie.

I just don't get it and I SURE don't want to try again. It had been many years since I have risked something like that.

Thanks for the thoughts Leah, I appreciate it.
