Sounds like it was difficult today. I think there were a couple of positives though..... at least H showed some emotion, and also he started accepting (maybe) that he needs to be more honest about his motivations and feelings. Perhaps he's starting to realise that he can't hide forever...... I hope so.
Interesting that he thinks he's being brainwashed. This sounds like something my (STBX?)H might say, because he's not sure of his own mind...... and something the OK Magazine guy would never say because he knows his own mind...... maybe what H needs to do during the MC process is to find his own mind for himself, and to be able to work out what he believes in. It just sounds very much as though he doesn't know, or can't communicate it.
I'm sure you'll get tons of good advice from other sources, but wanted to say that I'm thinking of you, on a Thursday night!
