Reply to "Has your T promised never to terminate?"

My T never flat out promised because he knew there were things out of his control (no one can promise not to die for instance) but he did reassure on a regular basis that he wasn't planning on going anywhere. He also very clearly told me on number of occasions that I was welcome to come see him as long as I wanted to, he would never ask me to leave and I would never be sent away(I had that one in writing.). He also told me that it was OK to discuss any and all of my feelings in his office.

He carried through on every one of these promises. But he was also very patient with the fact that I didn't trust any of it until he demonstrated the truth of all those statements over the long haul.

Oh and he promised to never lie to me, and as far as I know he never broke that one either. He's a quite extraordinary human being.
