I have found they do not handle client emotion as well as they think they do and neither of them can read me. I am not perceived by them as being demonstrative even though to me it seems as though I am almost over the top. The second one admits she can't see it and the first simply bungles it. I try telling them -directly -I am sad or I am displeased-but they often just don't get it or listen. I don't experience emotion a lot in general. I almost never cry - dead pets and parents are pretty much what that is confined to. The first one tried to get me to cry and got frustrated at me when it did not happen. I just didn't have an urge to do so. She also is frustrated because I don't show her emotions (her words not mine) but when I asked for examples other than crying - she just said she didn't know. So I just quit thinking about it
