This is one for the history books for sure. Long story short, my husband and I had couples counseling today (I saw T last night and learned his going away for a week).

Something came up in couples counseling that I needed clarification on and who better than my T who understands me. So, I called T and he called me back and we had a great 5 minute conversation.

I felt at ease/peace and was even all okay about his going away.

Then 10 minutes later his assistant calls me and says 'oh sorry but we need to cancel your session for next week because T will still be away' and of course, now he is booked up and my next session is June 4th.

I burst into tears after I hung up. They didn't know this last night? I asked T when he was coming back and he said a week but didn't give me a date.

I should've asked about next week's session but it is their schedule isn't it? T has been the one lately to book all my appts, he didn't realize he was going away and needed to tell me?

At first I thought he's punishing me for calling him today. But then I always have to check that thought because that would imply he intentional wanted to hurt me which can't be true.

Then again, he knew last night about this and he knew how I would feel so why not be upfront and honest and talk to me about it? Or, was it much better to use this as an intervention???!!!

So, now it will be 16 days until I see him next. I never got the chance to re-schedule ahead of time that decision was made for me.

Well, hope he has a great time on vacation while I sit here in pain. Ugh
