I was terminated almost a year ago and still struggle with it but it's better. I too was very jealous of ex-T. and her friends/family.
What I have discovered is that I never felt accepted by her - truly accepted. Because of the style of her therapy, I always felt she thought I should change. I didn't talk enough, I wasn't telling her my feelings, I was taking things personally, etc.
So, when she was spending time with others, she was accepted them more than me. In turn, I also felt rejected by her in small ways that added up.
I'm in therapy currently but hope to wrap all this up before the end of the year.
