>>>> Wow...how are you feeling now? I think there is definitely a door open...she didn't "have" to call you. If you want to start up therapy with her again, I think this is a signal that she's open to doing so. And, I think it means that she cares about you and how you are doing.
<<<<< I'm feeling really unsure about things. Of course I've listened to the message several times and it's hard to make sense of it. The words were really nice and the fact that she even called was really nice. But then there's the voice - the tone is what I would call her business-like one. Not the kind and caring one I loved so much.
But, she DID call. And like you said, she didn't "have" to. I don't call the people who send me Christmas cards - even if I haven't seen them in a long time. And these are people I would have at some point called my friends. But I am not her friend. I'm not her anything, really. And she still called. I'm inclined to think that if a T really didn't want any further contact with a client, he or she would ignore something like this, so as not to encourage anything further. But that's probably just wishful thinking on my part.
She really blew my plan out of the water didn't she? She responded when I was trying to see what it would feel like when she didn't. Overall, I guess I'd say this has left me with even more unanswered questions. And I'm not entirely sure whether that's a good thing or a bad one.
>>>>> Just my opinion, of course....I'll be interested in hearing what other people think.
<<<<< I'm interested too, but I'm afraid this thread is so old it'll be lost up here. I thought about starting a new one, but I didn't want to feel like a board hog.
>>>>> Hope you were out of town having fun!
<<<<<I was actually! We went to Chicago and got a lot of our Christmas shopping done. It isn't cold where I live so it helped give me a jolt of Christmas spirit.
