I suppose I should say that I pretty much put him on the spot today and he doesn't usually flounder on stuff like that. He was planning to go with brazen denial all the way. But when I crossed my arms and said I didn't *need* Therapist X and I only needed X the Therapist, and when I started crying, and when he realized his good show wasn't working, he started trying to talk to me about it. But since he had deluded himself into thinking I wouldn't notice, he didn't know what to say.
He really was wonderful about it in a way. He acknowledged that there was a difference to me, that his attempts to keep his personal stuff out of the room may have backfired with me, that I did deserve him to be as present as I was used to him being, etc. etc.
It's impossible to be angry with him. He's trying.
