I asked myself why am I making myself feel rejected and abandoned over this?

I ASK MYSELF THIS QUESTION TOO!

At the bottom of my wondering is the concrete truth, that T isn't going to be playing games and isn't ignoring me or teaching me a lesson, this tells me more about my life and my thinking then it does T.

This is what I was doing to myself just last month. My brain was coming up of with all kinds of reasons for why I was not getting a response (like... some behaviorist--negative feedback tactic to extinguish unwanted behaviors). Even though, I knew it could be something as simple as... she doesn't check her email frequently. Also when I logically assessed the situation it was OBVIOUS that my T was trained and would not need to resort to these punitive measures... Yet I still let these outrageous scenarios play over and over in my head until I felt bad. WHY?

I guess it does give us insight into OUR thinking doesn't it.

Nice post Mouse. I also am on an extended break from T, but seem to be avoiding (at least at this point) getting caught up in this pattern of thinking.
