Cloning huh? Hmmm...well, I'll see what he is willing to donate to make that happen. Funny, the only time I've really seen him get defensive is when I have admitted to not calling him because I thought I'd be intruding, and he sort of does this frustrated thing about "well, I TOLD you it would be OK, I just might not get back to you for a little while", which of course was not the reason I held back. Sometimes I wonder if he knows how different he is from some of the other therapists I've heard about. I have this fear that he will go to some seminar or another and change the way he does things. (I should tell him this as he is currently working on his PhD.)
I don't think you have to reveal where your plan came from, etc. I guess I don't even think the details are as important as the reasons behind the decision and/or the catalyst for taking action. Because you might never need the details if you can avoid the trigger...
I'm glad he told you he would be upset. I would too. I hope your are listening to this. How can I grab your hand if you aren't there to offer it?
I definitely think we need to put into place that road trip we talked about this summer. I think we need each other.
