*sigh*
Jenny,
i'm sorry you've had to go through this. 3+ years is a long time to for someone to know you on such an initimate level, and i understand your hesitance in leaving.
my own little personal opinion is that you should drop the guy posthaste and hook up with the woman, because she sounds very fair--giving the other therp the benefit of the doubt but still acknowledging all of your feelings. the fact that she didn't try to "win you over" speaks volumes...
i recently got into it with my psychoanalyst, who fucked with me in a number of ways. she took my suicide attempt in february so personally that she was vehement that it revolved around my anger toward *her.* i was like, "look, i've only seen you for 12 sessions!"
they *really* need to keep their counter-transference in check.
i wrote my fired doc 2 letters enumerating on why i would not see her anymore, or pay her most recent bills. do you think writing a letter would help?
best wishes to you,
sar
