- We both seem more ‘snippy’ with each other. H’s new lead in line “I’m not picking on you but….” And then I hear about all the things I don’t do right. I can’t even put water in the coffeepot correctly. But not a problem, he makes the coffee, I drink it.
Hmm...this seems like a real opportunity, WCW. He's actually starting to communicate some of the things that he thinks are making him unhappy. You might want to consider doing more listening between the lines than taking what he says at face value though. This is the kind of stuff that a good counselor would *love* to hear, I'm sure. And it is probably a great opportunity for you to do some validating and reflection and build a little rapport with him.
