I don't know how else to connect with him on a deeper level, than besides to get more into what he's interested in that I'm not. I share my anxieties, but all it seems to do is make him frustrated, so I'm kind of stuck between a rock and a hard place here. I don't know your definition of, "Are you cheating on yourself?" but, what my therapist and I got out of it is, "Am I not doing the things I am supposed to be doing for myself?" If so, then yes.
