Thank you, Daisy, for sharing your thoughts. I will check out that book. I always appreciate the insights you share when I read posts on the board. What you wrote about reciprocal caring kind of feeding off each other I think makes a lot of sense. I think love of any kind is at least a two process where it's about the relationship that's been built, not about a unilateral feeling, which is more about obsession or in the sexual context could be just about lust.
I probably will discuss this more directly with my therapist since it's been on my mind a lot lately, despite being more of a positive transference reaction. We've spent a lot of time on anger so at least this will be a break! :)
