Does anyone understand that feeling? Its holding me back but I would never be able to tell him how I feel, it feels too childish.

If you resist caring from people maybe your T is afraid he/she will patronize you or make you feel that way if they are too sentimental. I do not want someone who is rude and/or dismissive but I am uncomfortable with them being "sentimental" with me because it makes me feel silly and childlike and helpless, if that makes sense. So, is it possible you may be helping to maintain the distance from your T in some way and then afraid they do not care? Just a thought.
