If and when you cry? This may seem like a silly question, but I'm really curious. See, I'm not really a "crier" unless it's in front of the people who are closest to me. For a long time I tried to keep my T out of that "close to me zone" (a defense mechanism) I've finally accepted that she means a lot to me and I am about as comfortable as a person can be when I'm around her (except for the romantic feelings on my part, which are always there, but do not seem to get in the way of the session)I've told her how much I care about her, in the most sincere way possible. Since then, it's been easier for me to cry in front of her. I don't mean just a tear or two streaming down my cheek...full on crying.

I don't know what I expect her to do...but she just kinda sits there and looks at me. Don't get me wrong, she always has a very concerned look in her eyes, but it feels strange sometimes, sitting there crying in front of someone. I wonder if it's awkward for her as well? Or maybe her silence is her way of respecting my feelings and letting me express them without interruption?

This isn't something that's a huge deal, just something I noticed tonight and I'm interested in hearing ways other T's react.
