I don't know... He never was able to give a decent reason other than it's what he would ask any client in the circumstances. That it was the next question in a series of questions. That hardly seems like a good reason.

It might have been better (though I still would likely have lied unless he had given me a good explanation) if he had been gentle. But it all felt completely adversarial. I think he was inches away from threatening me with termination. I could almost see him thinking to himself "Threatening with termination probably isn't a good idea. I've heard how she thinks of her husband threatening divorce. I've worked hard on building trust. Don't do it. Don't do it."

And he admitted that something he had said the other day had more to do with the fact that he was p*ssed off than with his actual intent. His words, not mine. And said with a grin that made it a little bit hard to be mad at him.

Sigh.

I'm trying to cut him slack because of the stressors in his own life.
