Dear Brooke:

I like your progress- good job, I say: attitude and performance.

If he does join you for a therapy session- if the therapist is willing and able and if your boyfriend and you are as well, willing- that session (or future ones) can be about the therapist teaching and facilitating better communication and interpersonal skills between the two of you. If it comes to it, let me know: I have some experience as a client in such therapy.

Hope you update again. Hope there are significant changes in the relationship and I like your logic and flexibility in figuring you will be evaluating the relationship and making your choices following this calm discussion, as the relationship continues.
