For me a lot of the fascination with my therapist is the HUGE discrepancy of information about each other. She knows EVERYTHING about me and I know almost nothing about her, so every little bit of information is very precious to me. Not that I’m a stalker or have done anything to invade her privacy, sure I’m sure I could find a lot of "data" about her if I searched online but somehow that feels like cheating to me and would make the things I have figured out on my own or that she has opened up to me less meaningful.
Is it healthy, maybe not but it’s not such a bad thing, it’s something my therapist knows about I don’t try to hide my feelings from her (not that I ever could, so why try).
