> Thank you for your messages. I am trying to do the right thing...I think it does interfere with my therapy on the one hand because I'm thinking about him so much outside of sessions. However, we do really good work in session and I would hate to lose that just because I couldn't handle my wrotic feelings for him. I will think more about your posts: some say tell, some say not to tell. My fantasies have been going on for about three months, is that normal or too long?

Three months sounds pretty normal to me. I don't think there's any such thing as 'too long'. I still have erotic fantasies about my former therapist and we finished therapy four months ago!

For the record, I did short term therapy (I saw him for six months) and I never told him. But I think if I had told him he would have been able to help me to feel better about it. It took me a while to reach that conclusion, but I got there in the end. I think ultimately it's all about trust.
