I did get to trust him. I also got to love him and felt safe with him. then about a year ago he started showing that he didn't care about the impact of sudden abrupt cancellations on me and I started to feel f*cked about - and then he said he wanted to retire early and so we fought like hell about a date for that, and he agreed June 31st 2017. It seems the bottom line is what I suspected all the way along, he just earned his income from saying ' and how do you feel about that' to patients who came by and he wanted out and to go and live in the country and be out of it all, not even heeding his professional duty of care to the patients he abandoned in his hissy fit.
Oh, if I sound angry, yes, I am doing angry. But I am not going to let anger consume me, - he isn't worth the breath. Karma will rebound back at him big time. Maybe his current partner will realise what a sh*(tface he is and leave him.
