I've gotten this a few times too in response to something I've said and being a big confused about the meaning of... T has responded by saying something like 'Maybe its because you are angry with me?..' Everytime she has said it I've stopped and tried to search within to see/feel if in fact she is right and that is the case but it has never been so. I have never been feeling angry when she has asked that question. I'm not sure if its just her desperately searching for anger that she is hoping to find but is not there or that I am just not aware of underlying anger that she can sense but I can't see.
