So I was just wondering if someone could explain this a bit for me? I have read about it online and from what I have understood, people usually experience it when some sort of "need" was not met in childhood (usually from a parent). The thing is, my parents have always been supportive so I don't think that is the case with me.

There have been a couple of teachers from high school that I remember being particularly fond of to the point where I considered them "friends" of mine. Obviously they weren't but I from some reason I felt really close to them. They were all female. I have felt the same feelings with my last T and also my current one (both female). Clearly I am not friends with any of these people because I actually know very little about them so what is going on? What are the reasons one would experience transference? Could I just simply like these people a lot or is it more than that?
