Dear Elaine, This is a big deal, no doubt. You have become the therapist and, unfortunately, your therapist is meeting some of his own needs via you. It would be quite confusing. It is good that he is talking to someone about what is going on with him. But, how about you? Is there another therapist to help you? Since this has become more of a romantic relationship, you might feel better talking to a more neutral party. No judgement; I do not know that I would have been able to resist such special treatment. I have such strong feelings for my psychiatrist and I am constantly pushing his boundaries. I don't know what would happen if I was successful. I cannot imagine as he seems impervious to my attempts to sway him. I probably should not have said I was jealous of you; you are obviously wrestling with this big time. You are undoubtably right that you would not wish this upon any other woman. I need to remember that especially when I meet with him tomorrow. I know that he is "safe" for better or worse, though, and I still cannot help pursuing him, rather like Wiley Coyote and the Road Runner. If I actually "caught" him, I don't know what I would do.
