Hopefully you can make something good out of the time regardless of what you do.

I just think it's telling that I feel no real desire to see her again. It's not just that she's new--with R, I immediately wanted to see her again. I felt a connection to her. I'm thinking maybe part of why I was all over the place in the session is that I was looking for some sort of connection, whether personally or on a specific topic. But nothing seemed to really "stick". Even the obvious topic of discussing my D.
