Does he allow his less than positive emotions be seen? Do you know what his struggles are? Do you discuss the mundane - like ' how to choose a destination for vacation' or 'what are the favorite movies of each of you'? Do you know if he walks fast or slowly? Does he prefer coffee or tea? Is his house neat or messy? Is he interested in politics - do you share the same political persuasion? Is he athletic and swims a mile daily or is he a couch potato? What about religious or spiritual leanings? Do you know his? How does he manage his own frustrations? Does he like to be out in nature or does he prefer video games? And on and on...

Of course, none of that information is necessary to have when the relationship remains in the therapy office and what he provides for you there is awesome. I'm happy for you.
I can say I know the answers to all of these
questions and more. I love the man, who he really is, not the therapist.
