I'm not sure if I agree with this but I've been mulling it over lately. I don't feel like I am blocking anything, I just don't want it. But maybe that's what I need help with the most. I go back and forth on this.

I go back and forth on this too. My main thing is that I do not want to become attached UNEQUALLY!
I have a friend who told me that it doesn't matter why I like someone...or even IF i like them...as long as they like me the EXACT same amount!
I was really shocked, but it is true,
and that's what's hard about therapy for me..opening up to someone who doesn't reciprocate is a big issue for me! Of course...that's old pain that I need to investigate.
I'm doing it bit by bit...haltingly, slowly....sheesh!
What about that...stopdog? Does that ring any bells for you? You don't seem to want attachment and are really troubled with the notion of the T "invading" your dreams, and you like to cancel..but some other part of you KNOWS this is leading somewhere?
I may be totally off base...and if so, I will merely go back to my day job, which I'm supposed to be working on right this very moment....
Gotta go!
