Hi SoupDragon. An excellent question! While both are paying attention to you, the T is to be credited for helping you rediscover those good feelings. You are not truly in love with the T, just wanting to hold on to those positive feelings that you may not have felt for a long time, or ever! Your goal is to be able to take those stong feelings and experience them in the real world.
Let me put it another way. Let`s say you take knitting class. The teacher teaches you how and when you make your first scarf, boy do you feel good about your achievement! You now can knit! When the class ends, you have the skills to knit on your own and get the same positive feelings when you complete your first sweater. But the sweater won`t be for your teacher, but for someone close to you, or yourself!
Same feelings/ appropriate (for you) recipient Hope that helps! Velvet
