Hm, interesting point. He has commented a few times that I seem to know more about certain therapy things than he does. And he said early on that he was concerned that I'm probably smarter than he is. He does seem a bit bewildered by my reactions to things but also almost...not sure if fascinated is the right word, but something like that. Intrigued, maybe? Like he wants to understand, but struggles to at times. The fact that he seems to be really trying to understand is a big part of why I'm continuing to work with him. He seems invested. He's said before that he gets the sense he's like a puzzle to me. I think I may be the same for him, in a way.
