I've thought some more about this.

SPECULATION:

I want to know more about T because I knew so little about my mother.

Could it be true that those of us who most hate the blank slate had blank slate parents?

And the rest are not bothered by the blank slate because they didn't have blank slate parents?

Dude. Sometimes I wish my mum was a blank slate. She's more an angry kind of.. slate...

My T isn't exactly doing the blank slate thing, she does disclose some - but I'd still be interested to hear more. I think it's natural to want to know about the people we consider important to us, no matter how well we were brought up or how well we know/knew our parents.

(But I do appreciate these little 'SPECULATION:' & 'FANTASY:' vignettes )
Thanks for this!

Dude. Usually I love your speculations.

This time, I wanna say, not so much.

though it is intriguing!

I think the reason that I don't like the blank slate t's is because I mirror people so easily, and with a blank slate...I end up...feeling blank.

Therapy for me requires interaction, reaction, synthesis change and I have a hard time doing that in front of blankness. It's kind of a chicken and egg thing but just never hatched for me.

Yes, I appreciate your speculations. Keep them coming!
Thanks for this!

My T is a blank slate to the max (and it bugs me enormously), and I have blank slate parents. Sucks to be me.
