See, whereas im - ts are allowed to say anything. Altho the dental hygienist and i WERE just rolling our eyes at my dentist who brought out just ONE rack of my teeth for me to photograph. We were pretty awful to him behind his back. He comes back in and goes, "Hmm, i think things were said about me, but whatever!"

OTOH, i have been blunt, and vulnerable, with him to his face, and thats what MAKES our relationship. I take a chance on hearing bad news from him.

Chihiro - i think thats what our parents have a lot in common. (And i see it a lot on Kitchen Nightmates.) Our folks did not want to hear bad news from us. You are a madonna or a hoe, and they dont wanna know which. That puts us on shaky ground for ANYTHING - like even taking responsibility for what movie i want to see.

IMO, i think your t is just trying to talk you past or through that point. Why isnt it safe with him? Define it as safe with him. Easy for me to say, i was a math major. We make assumptions, prove stuff, then give ourselves awards. :winning:

Btw, my new crown is pretty cool. I love the meme where the person goes, my dentist said i need a crown, and im like, i know, right?
