I would not have given in to her, you are allowed to share thst here as much as she's allowed to tell us all it was her
Aside from that, seems like a good session. I kinda get the looking in the cafe thing. It's one reason I know I can't take my dog to visit at ts old place. I know I'd look at his door looking for him.etc
Also even with my dog gone over a yr now, I still have moments where I wait for him
I think it's just a normal part of grief.
Don't let pc get you down. It can be toxic here but you are the only one who actually knows your t and how it works for you.
