> His phone call is so very touching and genuine. And you did tell him your needs and he is there, filling them, the best way he knows how. Is your heart smiling? I'm smiling for you. Hold that phone message in your heart (and on your machine ... forever!).
Getting the message from him was very nice and I left him a message saying how I appreciated that he left it. It helped to calm some of my anxiety after that dream. I also told him it is important to me to know he's thinking about me and it was nice that he did.
But...by the time my session on Saturday rolled around, I had managed to turn it into him feeling like he *had* to call me because I'm needy and I'm "forcing" him into thinking about me by even bringing it up. Somehow, I turned it into a bad thing. :( He thinks this is a smaller version of what I do in other relationships and he's right. I have a very hard time accepting others' care and concern as genuine. I don't know how to change that, but it feels rotten. :(
> I'm not good with dreams (I leave those to Daisy, Falls, Dinah, Tamar, GG and anyone else who can find those nuggets of information from the subconscious). But you are smaller, hence younger, like a daughter would be. He is comforting you.I told him about the dream, but didn't get to it until the last fifteen minutes of my session. And then, I didn't remember to tell him I was smaller until the very end of that. Hopefully, we'll talk more about it next week.
Nice to see you, annie! How are you doing?
