Granted, I don't want that from a therapist - but my point is that the response you got would not be open, honest, vulnerable, etc to me.
To me it reads like obfuscating gobbly gook.
That is why I have to tell those people to just sit there and shut up. Because I can't decipher what the hell they are talking about.

It confuses me as to how you don't see it as being open, honest, vunerable etc? I mean I understand how it is something that you would not want to receive but the email clearly says that the T care's about RS and to me that is a clear indication of someone showing openness, honesty etc.

The OP also said that in their original email their understanding of caring for someone is that they are present in their heart and not just that they are thought about every now and again. The T responds to this by saying;
Quote:
I identify with your description of choosing to care for someone resulting in that person having a place in your heart. Yes, you are present in my heart.
