Right now I think I have to just end it. Maybe he doesn't want me to leave and it will really hurt him, and hey, maybe it's just in my head. Nope. Not if it's bad. Bad things are never just in my head.
I don't want to be cruel. But he can't give me anything. Not as a therapist anymore. Not as a man... And it's not going to be the same. I'm not going to be happy to see him. He's going to have his baby and he'll be stressed out and overit. We're not going to have fun conversations and jokes, and flirting now... So he wouldn't want me there either.
Because honestly? There's nothing left to say.
It was like an affair. And one thing's the same about all affairs. They can't go anywhere.
Not undermining how he's helped me, saved me from drowning, given me so much light and inspiration and I guess... I don't want to think about it now.
I'm numb.

ReplyDeleteAmen.
I don't think he'll be hurt as much as feel guilty that he hurt you, whether unintentionally or not. It's probably for your own good to move on instead of getting angst about every time you're supposed to see him and trying to figure out what he means all the time. Not that it won't be sad...
