Yes. We had fairly recently been talking about how she doesn't initiate Emails anymore like she used to...so since that discussion, the first Email she initiated was that she felt bullied by my "attempt" to "get" her to say those words. She's always said I could ask her anything, that was a very vulnerable moment, as I was ready to tell her I was seeing another T, but I guess I stupidly asked for reassurance before I told her, and that's what came out of my mouth.
Her words in that Email still haunt me. "your attempt to get me to use those words leaves me feeling bullied." I'm still heartbroken over that. I now try to be careful what I say...so she doesn't feel "bullied." Screw therapy sometimes...
