I haven't had the courage to read it yet. It's very thin. It's a snailmail, so there is no hurry. I'm feeling overwhelmed about work. W has offered to read it. Er... no thanks.

I'm expecting "Dear CE, it would be best if you didn't write to me again".

I've already reached that conclusion but I don't want to see it in print.

Yes, I know. I said silence is worse than anything she can say. Not so sure with the envelope in my hands!

I think I missed something. I thought you didn't send her the card? Did you? What did you say?

I didn't send THAT card. But I DID send her the Rose exercise.

Ah. Well, it could be just a non-committal sort of response thanking you for sharing your work and wishing you well in continued progress. I wouldn't have expected any sort of more in-depth response to it because that would cross the line into therapy.

I tend to think it will say something neutrally positive, that will, however, feel like a disappointment.
Thanks for this!

I know that anxiety about unopened mail from T's - I've felt the same towards an email from my T.
I found that the thoughts I was conjuring up in my mind about what she may have written, were actually worse than the content of the ACTUAL email.

I hope you find the courage to open it CE

Plausible on both counts.

The most positive thing she could say is, yes, she wants to see the other two pictures.

Did you ever read Love's Executioner?

There's a story called Three Unopened Letters. Reminds me of that. You never know till you open, right?

I wouldn't expect too much. Not trying to be negative, but from your posts about her, I don't think she's suddenly going to change and satisfy you.

I hope I'm wrong, though!!!! You deserve a nice reply.
