Tired, one thing to keep in mind while you go through this. The things that "cut" you are things that both the MLCr says because he knows they hurt you, but are also things you may want to evaluate as possible changes. Likely what he says has "some" truth in it, although he'll blow them way out of proportion. And not all of it is real. The trick then is to wade through it and figure out if there are things about you that you want to change for YOU. They have to be because you want to change them, and they have to be accurate assessments. You won't get accuracy from him.
That's the part that's the gift in all of this. We can become bitter or better, as ericsmant has been known to point out. We can become better by assessing and changing things we don't like about ourselves. None of us is perfect. I know in my own case there were a few things to change that my ex pointed out. Once I waded through the "junk and spew" I found those and did change them for ME. I'm very happy for that gift. Now
Peace,
AJ
