Hi -- I think I was unclear, yipes. I meant to say, I really ought to be talking about my desire for my T in therapy. Not talking about it is, for me, a way to avoid talking about one of my core problems -- feeling unlovable.

That said, something happened yesterday in session which made me think it would be better *not* to bring this stuff into the session. Basically, he *thought* I was saying "I want a personal relationship" and he basically made me feel like a moron for that.

Even though I hadn't actually issued the invitation for a "personal relationship."

Transference cuts both ways, I guess. They feel as much for us as we do for them, and it is confusing on both sides. Or at least, that's been my experience. Maybe I need a smarter T?
