That thing you said.. about someone not asking for what they want in case the answer is no? The fear of rejection, wishing they never brought it up.. I find it curious you said that. Like you read something I wrote recently. If you did then you already know what that something I wanted was..

I'm not going to ask you for a hug. Especially now I feel like you backed off. Maybe it would feel weird anyway. A few sessions ago I'd started to feel it might be nice is all. I thought I felt a closeness. A maternal vibe. Maybe I was too honest in saying that I like you, see you as a role model, fairy godmother.. Relax, I didn't say I want you to adopt me. I know you're my therapist, not my mum.. Did my 'attachment' scare you? I can back off too, no problem, but I guess I just thought I was supposed to let that stuff happen. That the therapeutic relationship was important and healing... I'm so confused. Is it because I'm maybe 'borderline' or whatever? What happened this last two or three weeks? Did your supervisor say something to you? Was it something I said, or did?

You know I have 'mummy' issues. You're the one that kept picking at that thread. I feel like you wanted me to see you as a maternal figure. And now I feel like you really, really don't.
