I went to see a therapist for a couple of months about a relationship problem and issues stemming from my childhood. During that short time, I developed overwhelming feelings of ‘love’ for the male therapist I was seeing. We are roughly the same age and at the time, I also sensed that he was attracted to me. I never told him of my feelings although I suspect he may have guessed. At most sessions, he mentioned that he was in a relationship – I don’t know why he felt the need to do that because I never did or said anything inappropriate. The therapy came to an end somewhat unsatisfactorily – I felt as though he didn’t want to see me anymore. I still have a couple of unresolved issues that I would like to talk to him about because he helped me so much with other things. However, I feel too embarrassed to approach him because of my feelings. A month has passed and I just can’t get him out of my mind. It is affecting my sleep and my relationship – I really miss him. Does anyone have any advice about what I can do to address this problem?
