My therapist will occasionally be silent and I like to "challenge him" so we will sit there and be silent for as long as we can ..(Which is like 30 seconds...but 30 long seconds) :) then I will be like "What?" and he will say "I dont know you tell me" (that really makes me mad) so then, I start just talking about whatever is on my mind...I think he remains silent to see how I am truely feeling. He can read my face and sometimes if I am not saying something he can read my face..and then he will ask his questions to me.
