I've never known anything about my Ts' families or lack thereof. First T I saw for, er, about five or six months I think. Maybe a year. I really can't remember - it was in 2002, so quite a while ago now. Second T (whom I refer to as ex-T because I was still seeing her when I joined PC) I saw for seven months. I can't imagine current, new T telling me anything about his life either, and I'm sure others on the boards have said that they have Ts who don't disclose anything about their lives.

Anyway, first T, ten years ago, I used to run into in the street every now and then; we'd smile briefly and nod, same as with any acquaintance. Since my termination with her was very abrupt and without any closing session, I was always rather relieved that she didn't seem to bear a grudge. I haven't seen her for quite a while now though. Ex-T and current T I haven't met outside the T room; I imagine that I'd smile and nod at ex-T but wait for current T to acknowledge me first (which he probably wouldn't do).
