I was doing CBT with my previous male therapist. I don't really know how much of it was transference and how much of it was genuine liking. I guess I really liked him - he was very much like me. I thought for 2 years that it will go away but now I realised it is probably never going to go away - the only way is to stop contacting him (I have contact with him only via email for the past 2 years- it is a long story).
Now I see a female therapist and I don't have any attachment towards her. I don't have any transference and no feelings at all. And I guess she also does not have any feelings for me. She doesn't show any affection or share anything about herself so maybe that is part of it.
