In reply to Re: Falling in love with your psychiatrist, posted by muffled on January 8, 2008, at 11:53:52
Dear muffled, I've been wanting to thank you for the compassionate reply. Gee, I don't know what exactly is motivating me. I just thought it was love. You see, he is so very kind and gentle and would never hurt me. He is not like most men I have known. He is patient and really cares. What's not to like/love? And, of course, I never got that unconditional acceptance from my father and never will. The opposite was true; he was very mean. So, my psychiatrist seems irresistable. Unfortunately, I am resistable to him. I think I said before that if I even knew he was interested in me but could do nothing about it, I do believe that would be enough. I will never know this. This is frustrating and seems to keep me running in circles. But, I am getting tired of trying to convince him to love me. And, he does love me just not in the way I want. It almost seems like a power struggle. And, if so, he wins. And, I guess that's ok. Nothing else is working. I do not seem to have the right magic. Thanks so much for caring. Widget
