I've told T I want her to be "real", maybe she took me TOO seriously!!

I disagree that therapists should bring themselves too much into the therapy relationship. They're there to help us - not to work out their own issues. Sure they're human but your T seems very confused about things as basic as boundary violations.
But the kicker for me is how she 'confessed' how she didn't feel comfortable about doing something for you (was it hugs, I can't remember) but did it for you anyways. And then realized it was a mistake.I think it's terrible for a T to say something like that.
