I'm kind of nervous

DH and I had our joint session with the counselor.  We've scheduled our next one, and in between, she wanted to meet with each of us individually.  My appt. was last week, DH's is now.

I'm kind of nervous.  I guess part of me is afraid that he'll sit down and start talking and somehow realize that it's not worth the effort and he wants out.  And part of me knows that they'll be talking about me and I won't know what they're saying, which I hate. 

Sigh.  I'm going to sit here and eat peanut butter granola bars and pretend that they're sitting there talking about what an extraordinary person I am.  But really, DH is probably telling her that I'm uptight and controlling.  And she's probably nodding sympathetically and taking notes, just like she did with me last week.

Do not like.  I tell myself that it's all part of the process, though. 

Re: I'm kind of nervous

  • I would hate that too.  I will pretend that they are discussing how awesome you are as well. 
  • You are right, it is all part of the process. Also, the counselor is supposed to be unbiased, so she isn't nodding and saying, "Yeah, leave the uptight hoar." She is listening, and most likely, helping your H gain some insight to your behavior. Counselor doesn't win if you two break up.

    I totally understand your anxiety. I am 100,000% sure I would feel the same way. I *know* people at work talk about me, but I just try not to think about it. It is really hard to ignore when you know someone has an appt SPECIFICALLY to talk about it, but this is for a good reason.
