Our house just appraised $30,000 higher this year. Yeah, for higher property taxes -- not! I think the county is making up for lost time. Seems to be what many are experiencing around here this year.

I know what I want from life. I'd like to spend the next 30 years on a cruise ship with my wife.

Why don't you buy a cruise ship and invite all the Couchies on it? It'll be just like "Love Boat."

We're moving in a month and that is stirring up all kinds of stuff. Today I was triggered by H's "ugh" feelings about cleaning and packing (we've been in this house for 30 years, raised 4 kids and man do we have a lot of stuff!) He told me that he wasn't expecting my four year old alter to come down the steps. T1 is seeing me 3 times/week thru the end of the month, which I love, but even that isn't keeping me present. Sigh.

Or maybe someone asked him, "what are the words in English that begin and end in W?" and now he's trying to use them all in one day.

Willows? Wheelbarrows? Widows?

Of course, once the S goes on there it doesn't end in W anymore.

Sorry to obsess about this. Considering my T said that he felt he was being mean to me do you think there might be feelings from his side? It only just occurred to me forgive me if i am a bit slow. Or is this another manipulation as per SD theory but everytime i challemge him he denies it.

Did not sleep too well. Gngh.

BY, yes, I would interpret it to mean that. He recognises that he did something that wasn't optimal (I believe Ts are human and not in full control of what they do all the time) and acknowledges that he feels bad about it. I think. It's what my T would mean anyway.

Sorry you didn't sleep well seems a lot of people didn't everytime I peeped on the couch when I couldnt sleep there was some else saying theyy didn't sleep.
Thanks for confirming that but I know T are supposed to look after their own thing but I feel responsible because I did something that caused him to feel that way. I know you shouldn't feel responsible for others reaction etc

what do you mean by feelings from his side? Do I think they can recognize where they have screwed up? Yes I think it not impossible. I think they only admit it as some sort of manipulation - but many people would disagree with me.

Do you mean that such a phrase from a therapist would mean feelings other than as someone hired to be a therapist who had screwed up? then no - I don't.

I definitely do not believe you can make anyone feel anyway. And especially not a therapist.
