I thought maybe it should have been "that will cause them to leave." But Dr. T said he saw it in the sense of, my fear of crossing some line with him (or whoever), where he'd say, "OK, you need to leave and not come back." Which is accurate.

I find the original version of this line quite interesting, not because of Dr T’s interpretation, which is obvious, but more significantly because it suggests you largely see yourself as passive, as though you have no control or agency in relationships.
