I am female and I was very reluctant to open up to my male T (who was assigned to me by my university clinic). I have issues trusting men anyway. Eventually I know I trusted him more than any man I've ever known. But I did have a lot of trouble in the beginning with him because I didn't want to get hurt. But he turned out to be the most empathetic, caring and nurturing of the 3 T's I have seen in my life. I could tell him all of my feelings and we had a lot of tense and emotional moments together. I think he was a very emotional person himself.

Are you reluctant as a guy to discuss your emotions with another guy? Is it more "acceptable" to you to be emotional in front of a woman than a man?
