But I'm not sure that I would assume it's about something personal related to her. To me it sounds like the influence of a T school that is very psychodynamic in nature. To a psychodynamically-trained person, one of the basic developmental tasks for girls is to transfer "desire" from the mother to a man. That is one reason why Freudian shrinks used to label lesbians as immature (and why being gay was considered a mental illness in the DSM until around 1970)-- it was thought to be a developmental delay that was pathological. So I think that she may be coming at this from a therapeutic perspective that is all wrapped up in the Freudian paradigm-- which can at times have a lot of value, but IMO misses the mark in lots of ways.quote]

She did say that my emotions related to this mother issue are "immature" and "need to grow up."
