But I always wondered did she care about me or the situation. Now I know she cares about me.

I'm happy I asked her. Even though it didn't turn out how I hoped it would go, at least I know now how she feels about me.
I feel the same about my therapist not using the word love but talking around it. I do think he loves me most of the time. He wouldn't have stuck with me thru this roller-coaster thru hell the past 7 years. He says I care about you very much. Maybe I'm lying to myself to feel better about it. My former t abused and exploited me with his "love". So I think my current T is hesitant to even say it. However the things he's done for me speak the volumes of the word that he won't say
