What a great session, sister.

Sometimes I feel really separate from those of you who get angry when their T's take a week off. Is that the way you are supposed to feel? Is there something wrong with me that I don't feel that way? Here is how I feel when that happens. I feel like darn, it won't work this week for us to meet because T is on vacation or whatever. Darn, it will be hard to go a whole two weeks without seeing him. Darn. I will miss him. Maybe even intensely. And if things are really bad, I will feel I can't possibly last that long. But no anger.

my t seems disappointed that i won't get angry with him over seperation.

</div></font></blockquote><font class="post">Maybe I am kind of like you, alex, in that regard--that I don't get angry if T takes a week off. But my T has never tried to get me to be angry at him for taking a week off. He and I act like you know, stuff happens, sometimes we can't make an appointment happen one week due to his schedule or mine. Why is that something to get mad about? It's not like just because he is going out of town it is a personal assault on me or he is doing it specifically to hurt me. Why would this make me angry? You know, I am the one who isn't even angry that her husband has been unfaithful and screwed around with babes behind her back for years. I have never been angry about that. Really, sometimes I wonder if there is something wrong with me. I mean, if I can't get angry with my husband for his infidelity, why would I get angry at T for taking a week off?
