i'm sorry b2c :(
incidentally, my T would *always* read into sh@t. the stupidest crap, too... like... say i told her, "i love to bake cookies of all kinds, because i like to make people feel warm and fuzzy. i've made hundreds of batches of chocolate chip and one batch of oatmeal." well if *i* heard that, i'd probably dwell on the fact that i'm making them FOR other people (particularly when we're talking about how i need to take care of other people in other sessions). but SHE would say "how come you only made one batch of oatmeal?" and then she'd BEAT IT LIKE A DEAD HORSE. trying to find some hidden meaning behind the fact that i've only ever made oatmeal cookies once.
maybe that was a stupid analogy. but i think i know what you mean.
i don't know if you misinterpreted what your T told you, but i would have interpreted it the EXACT same way. if you're talking about needing safety and the like, and then later you're told that you can't be protected... well, it's like she completely ignored what you told her. or disregarded it. i don't really know what she interpreted it as either... because i think it's *obvious* you don't want her to like stand up for you in a fist fight or anything, but on the other hand, an emotional "cushion" of sorts should be EXPECTED from someone who's supposed to be on your side. obviously she can't FEEL for you, but she can certainly make sure you're not hurting unnecessarily by being there for you and helping you.
anyone can listen. seriously. we listen. friends listen. journals listen. what's she going to do for you that everyone else cant?
i hope you can figure things out and find someone good :(
love,
ghost
