I remember the very first time I realized that I trusted T. I was going through a phase in which I was constantly getting angry at him. He told me that if I wanted to I could call him voicemail and say, "Look-- I don't want you to listen to this, but I have to get some stuff out ot my system--" and then I could totally curse him out. He promised he wouldn't listen to it. He said we could do whatever I wanted-- he would delete it, we could listen to it together in session, whatever. And all of a sudden it occurred to me that I really trusted that he wouldn't listen to the message if I told him not to.

I am not going to pretend that I trust he won't ever leave me. That just goes along with my abandonment stuff. But I believe that's a separate issue.

As a person, as a T, I trust him.
