That's not the same as what I suggested. The words you stated sound weak as if you have something to prove to her. My words state a FACT and you don't care if she believes it or not.
I wasn't saying that they were the same. This is how I have addressed it in the past and I know that has been ineffective. It only addresses her assumptions of me and not stating what I want to work through this.
Your suggestion does state what I want - I have avoided saying much about what I want and need.
She is asking for more from me - for me to open up, so your suggestion really does help with that. I have become used to her not staying long to listen or responding to what I have said. Nor do I expect her to and am not really affected by that any more.
I usually keep my part of any conversation like this very short and to the point so I have the time to say what I want to. In many cases it is too abbreviated and doesn't actually get to the real point. Again, I am hoping she gets to a point where we can actually have a 2 way conversation that is not about her work only.
Thank you.
