Just plowing through to get whatever available answers there are to the questions you have - and putting all personal feelings aside, and not worrying about theirs. Pursuing your own goals regardless of the therapist's goals (for you). Is that immoral?

Immoral NOT IN THE SLIGHTEST, in fact it sounds like it would be a great way to go through therapy, I just don't see it as being realistic, you are not a robot, the thought that you could bear your soul to someone without feeling something for that person seems so odd, not bad, just something I can't quite get my mind around.
