Asked today why after on Monday when I finally asked her my first ever intimate question and she had given a really nice reply, why I couldn't show her then and there how much it meant to me? T said its proberbly because I feared her taking it away again.

I was amazed that I even said this today. That I let her know that what she had said was really nice! Then I scanned her bookshelves again and spotted a book that I am interested in, and she said I could borrow it.

She's made an offer of a book before, but I refused, to scared to let her see that I really wanted to have something of hers. But today I said ok, but I'll borrow it over the Easter break, that way I know you have to come back because I have your book.

T said thats a good idea. I can't believe I allowed her to see that much of me, that I want something of her's to hold onto!

MInd you this evening I have to laugh at the maddness of it all, I mean as if the book would guarentee her returning LOL!

I think it is wonderful that you can allow yourself to be that vulnerable with your T. Sounds like you guys are working very well together.

Great mouse!!!!!! She sounds so supportive and patient. I think you are making progress together and I am happy that you are feeling some genuine care.

Yay, enjoy your book (and everything it means to you to have it)
