Then we argued about the role of this group in my dream, and I thought it was funny that she was arguing with me about something in my dream life. There was another element to it that proved to be true in the way that it demonstrated our relationship--she was wobbly and I steadied her--she said she liked that part best. I later found out why she was wobbly. I still think about that dream sometimes. It's good to share those things in therapy, I think.
That's such a strange coincidence!
I'm not sure if I'll tell T about my dream just because I have some more "pressing" issues that I need to discuss and I keep avoiding them! If I get the time I may bring it up
