Thanks ruh roh
T said that we might never be able to tell exactly what was mine and his in this rupture which is fine by me so long as I don't feel blamed for all of it.
I think I persist because I have high expectations of him because I know what he's capable of. I certainly made an effort to find a reflective therapist, but I never meant to get attached to him so I didn't know how important it would be.
It's good to feel we're hopefully headed out the other side of this rupture.
