I did too. it meant a lot to me and did help build rapport and trust. I also thought I wouldn't be able to survive without our outside contact. it made me feel special to be frankly honest! but... I started to depend on it amd T noticed. t thought he was preventing me from branching out. he said I'm putting all my eggs in one basket (him). which was true. I had t I didn't need anyone else.

but yeah T decided it was time to pull back. that was 2 years ago. I get along better than I ever thought I would and I'm even willing to admit that I think it has been helpful. I've made more friends since then and depend on his replies a lot less... which took out a lot of distress time for me
