My first therapist had naturally blonde hair and the prettiest blue eyes ... Here I was 33.5 years of age ... And, God!, I had the biggest crush on her! ... I was nowhere near coming out of the closet yet ... Of course I wasn't there to deal with my sexuality (or so I thought), I was there to deal with the fact that I'd grown up in a home (which I'd just "escaped") that was rather brutal, violent and incestuous ...

I came out to her a little over a year later ... This beautiful, straight woman encouraged me to acknowledge this part of myself by telling me ... "It's okay ... I'll never reject you for who you are" ... And this gave me the courage to speak it out loud for the first time ever ... She helped me to understand for the first time in my life that I wasn't something wrong or bad or evil because of my sexuality ...

She put me in touch with many valuable resources to help me with this aspect of my healing journey, and always showed a genuine interest in my progress pertaining to it ...

Now, I've had a handful of other therapists throughout my 18.5 year journey, and for the life of me I couldn't even begin to tell you about their eye color ... I find this rather interesting and worth more than a passing thought or two ...

Thanks for posting this thread ... !!!
