My T has encouraged my to write because she says sometimes it makes people feel better to get things off their chest.
And I eventually said, “I don’t like writing to you because there’s no point. All you’re going to do is say, ‘Ok. We’ll talk about it Tuesday.’”
And she was taken aback and said, “I’d never just say, ‘Oh, we’ll just talk abut it Tuesday.’”
And since then, she’s done it twice (I’ve only e-mailed twice)
Granted, I guess these were things that could have required a more thorough response and she didn’t want to bother writing what could be better said verbally. But..... still.
E-mailing mostly reminds me that she is this distant person who doesn’t want to think of me outside of the office because, like many of us, she doesn’t want to take work home.
