A male United States age 41-50, *esdancol writes:

Ive been in this relationship with a therapist for 6 months now and im a dependent person and she is the opposite. We use to see each other every other day for a couple months now its once a week tops. I talk to her everyday for a little bit but she always thinks im checking up on her too by the questions i ask her. I was married for four and a half years before my ex told me she was having an affair so i do have some trust issues. I love my girlfriend to death and want to make this relationship work, but yesterday she told me we need a break so i can figure out my security issues. i want help but my question is this relationship over and what is the best thing i can do to make it work?

OhGetReal agony auntThere isn't enough information to go on here, but when someone asks you for a break then give it to them...determine what the ground rules are for the break, does this mean you both can date other people?

She doesn't sound like a good therapist to me, if she thinks you have trust issues and security issues, then why isn't she helping you feel that you can trust her? She sounds like she just is kind of aloof and doesn't want your attention, which is HER issues. There are people who are psychopaths with personality disorders who have become psychologists and or therapists, I would ask a second opinion about HER if I were in your shoes.
