I found out last night that he has been lying to me about not being married. NOT refusing to discuss his marital status but actually telling me he wasn't married. He discussed his divorce with me at length (I know Boundary Violation) the time it was supposed to have occurred. I asked him why he was still wearing his ring and he said it was so people wouldn't be asking questions and trying to set him him up with someone new! I was concerned that he was not accepting the reality of his divorce and expended a great deal of sympathy on him. That was several years ago.
I saw his name listed Dr and Mrs_____ on a list of members of an organization and called and asked him what was going on. First he wouldn't answer me and then he said yes he was married and then he told me he was just saying he was married to see what I would say and that he wasn't. Then he said yes he really was but I couldn't ask him any questions. I asked him anyway if it was anyone I knew. Last year one of his other patients told me he was married to the MSW who had the other office in his building which he had denied at the time . Then he said well you met my first wife (which I did several times Boundary Violations I know I know). I asked him if he meant he remarried her? (I asked about her awhile back and he said he hadn't seen her in a couple of years.) Then he was back to I am not allowed to ask questions.
It's no use telling me to leave I all ready know that but it's easier said than done.
