It is firm, clear and consistent. Good boundaries. My only complaint is that it could be pitched a little warmer.

It is better than ignoring you, and better than encouraging you to expect meaningful replies every time. (No T can keep that up forever.)

My T used to send emails like this, and I didn't like them. But I got used to them in the end and I accepted the wisdom.

Here's my "ideal" T reply.
I agree too that it is probably best. I keep thinking that if she were the warmer T that I think I want, she might not be the same as far as punctuality/cancelling/etc.

You're ideal response is great though.
Thanks for this!

I'm also stalking/checking places out using google streetview. Are you working? Can you take micro-naps?

Back from the hospital.....Oh joy, that was fun!

They removed one of the drains. Yippee! The other one still has a way to go, maybe another week or two. The dr flushed a bunch of gunk out of it and then was so eager to show me the picture he took of it on his phone. OK, doc, I get it that the grosses things excite you, LOL.

You got what you were trying for. It would make a cute tattoo.

Oh yeah, my gf - our age - and an older uncle had it done recently, like in the past 10 years or so. The uncle said he wished he had had it done ages ago. My gf seems pretty good.

My exciting afternoon consisted of a doctor's appointment for my neck and taking off my shellac nail polish. Normally, I have it done at the salon, but they're not open today and I got a couple of huge chips in them. I hate chipped nails, so I just spent an hour getting it off.

Envy me.

I kind of can't remember not having the couch. I know we did, and kept being chastised for hijacking, I just would find it so odd not to have it now.

One of my friends loves it also and wants us both to go get it tattooed on each of us somewhere. I'm flattered someone wants something I drew permanently stamped on her skin. LOL.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
