I wouldn't like to guess peoples ages because I always end up insulting people when I guess.

I think therapists are meant to think about whether it would be more helpful to answer the question or to explore the question. In this case... I was saying something about how I didn't really realize that each state had a different flavor... And it turns out that my bf and him were raised in the same state. Though... A different part of it - so a different flavor again.

He also said 'thats how come I know a little of the East Coast geography' because we were having discussions about how far it was to drive from here to there and so on. And my memory is a little %#@&#! up... And so now I guess I'll defer to his knowledge lol.

I guess I do feel a bit closer to my t knowing that. Moving to the US vs staying in Aussie will be a decision that I'll be faced with at some point... Nice to know it is a decision that he faced at some point, too. In this case I'm glad he answered.

There is a 15 year age gap between me and my bf. It gets to me at times. I asked my t (a while back) if he thought it was too much. He paused for a bit... And said that he didn't think he should answer that. I think that that was the right thing for him to have done in hindsight. Hard to know as a t, I guess.
