I wouldn't really say he nudged me out of the nest when I expressed interest. He didn't even put on too happy a face. But he did seem to respond with alacrity. Enough alacrity to trigger my abandonment anxiety and rage, apparently.
I responded none too well, and as usual when that happens, he seemed at a loss and his attempts to help just made things worse.
He did answer one of my angry calls today, and said he'd like to talk about my reaction to feeling hurt. He thinks I have a pattern of generalizing experiences, and then look for reasons to feel hurt by him.
Sigh. I'd given him some printouts a long time ago about treatment for emetophobia. He never had read them. He promised the time before last to read them by last session, but didn't. And he *swore* to me last session, with all earnest puppy dog eyes, that he'd read them by this session, but of course he didn't. He then tried to swear to me again that this time he really would read them by next time, but I wouldn't let him. He kind of jokes about it every time he tells me he's forgotten again. He told me he just hadn't had time to read it. Then he told me about something in today's paper...
