I know you're not suggesting I end with him, just sharing your own experience and saying you'd struggle to work with him. The thing is, he's very helpful in a few key areas for me, the biggest one right now being with my daughter. And that to me is most important.

It's just particularly difficult for me right now because it had felt like we were in a really good place, and he even *said* recently "we're doing amazing with the rupture piece" (like with avoiding ruptures. I don't know that this is actually a rupture at this point--in his email reply, he emphasized that he was just "mildly irritated" by my texted and repeated "mildly." And that it's not an issue for him anymore.

The problem for me is, I had checked in with him about it, and he said it wasn't a problem at all. Apparently, he expected me to be psychic and know at what point it would become "mildly irritating" to him. And now it feels difficult to trust when he says things are fine. But he said that if things aren't, he'd bring up something early on, as he did here, and "f people can just say something early and kindly, we can move on." It just triggers something in me (coming from him or people in my outside life) that I clearly need to work on more.

Anyway, now I'm the one who said more than I'd intended to say....I do appreciate your insight!

I'm sorry LT I was not at all suggesting anything like that. I was just describing I guess the reason I have a lot of respect for you being able to do what I could not.
