My t mentioned something about me feeling grief over this situation and that she would help me work through it. I was so angry at the time I was talking to her I didn't think it would happen. So now a week later, while listening to my dog snore, I feel sadness, confusion, but not quite grief. So far I have done everything to not let that happen. Part of me wants to talk to him but that is how it has always been. I love my son

You can always love your son, but you aren't obligated to be treated in such a way or so. Sometimes it's just best to let go- not on an angry note, but more like in a caring loving manner that's not misunderstood or taken the wrong way.
It sounds like he's old enough to take care of his self- let him.
