Reading it over again, I think I made it sound worse than it was. I'm concentrating on the things that support my point of view, and that I may have dug out of him. And I'm probably phrasing it rather negatively.
Not the initial bad session, where he said things that were not only insensitive but also far more foolish than he's generally guilty of being. However, he was far better this time, although I don't get the sense that he's even trying to deny what he said, or suggesting that I misunderstood.
It's just hard to rebuild anything on that foundation. But definitely I don't want to be angry with him on a long term basis. A short term one, sure. Trust is different though. Trust is never easy for me.
I'm glad you and your therapist have reached this place in your relationship! It is definitely forging a new path, and the two of you are to be commended for finding a balance that works for you.
