Ack! I wasn't answering because how embarrassing is it to admit you want to be like your old man shrink?? When I first started seeing him, he said he was interested in Sweden, and I was like, still? We ALL wanted to be Swedish in the '60's. He was like, gee I don't remember that. And he kept insisting - in that way that ts do sometimes that is so annoying - that I was just saying I had been interested in Sweden because I wanted to be like him. I still say he is wrong, but apparently it IS a thing, to want to be like your t.

I used to have fantasies of being my t's discovery partner - this t and previous ts - helping them with research, being their magic patient, but not anymore. I don't really know when that changed. I do feel like he recognizes my abilities more. My FOO really did not. My mother says, what do you mean, I brag about you all the time, I told people you made $100,000 a year. Problem was, I NEVER did! Not even close!! I did okay for a girl with a bachelor's degree, I'm not complaining. But it's not bragging if you're totally lying. That just made me feel like crap. Like I didnt even exist. Like her real ideal daughter would have done better than I did. Yeah, whatever. So I have had to pay strangers to tell me I'm okay. It's ridiculous, but it's what it is. Good thing she raised me to be easily fooled. Witch. I'd rather be like anybody else.

ETA - actually I think my t and I are a lot alike.
