And now that I've been laid off, my current health insurance carrier will change in the next few weeks. That means that I need to identify a counselor under the NEW insurance plan and not the old. In a way, it's good that we didn't start therapy yet given the change in my circumstances.
We did have a bit of an incident last night where I felt he became rather manipulative of my emotions. He tried to turn something around on me, and now I forget the details, but I called him out on it. He did not raise his voice, and it did not turn into a fight or argument. It did not escalate, so that's good, but I did get upset with him.
