I have thought much the same. Maybe not if I would be "cool" enough, but if I would be "functional" enough. My T seems so functional. I feel I would not be up to his level out in the real world, so he would not want to really get to know me if we had met under different circumstances. Recently, my T was telling me something about his current romantic relationship and I said, "that sounds so functional!" And he said, "well, most of the time." So I guess maybe he's not functional all the time, lol, or at least he's telling me his relationship isn't perfect.
