Dear T,
Hm, now I'm wondering if you do think the reason I felt I/we had to end with ex-MC was because he didn't reciprocate the "I love you." Is that maybe what you thought I meant when I felt he had rejected me? Because that's not what I meant. I meant in the sense of taking things away from me, changing toward me. More like a child feeling rejected by her parent. I never expected him to say it back. But I did expect him to not completely change toward me as a result of it. Especially considering that he's psychodynamically trained and is very well aware of transference. Just wondering now if that's what you thought all these years...

Love,
LT
