I'm going to talk about this with my T this week, and I'm a little worried because my T knows so much about me... what if she thinks I would be incompetent? It's also in the back of my mind that my T knows how much I look up to her as a role model. What if she therefore thinks it's wrong that I want to become a T, guessing it is only because of her? I will admit, she has influenced me to follow this path. But it has always been something that I have considered and definitely not the sole reason. And it's also so awkward because I might want to say something like "it is said many times that people enter this field due to experiences in their own life" and this could obviously apply to her, though I don't want to insinuate that I think this is the case for her. Perhaps I'm over-thinking everything way too much.
Has anyone ever told their T that they wanted to become a T? Were they pleasantly surprised, flattered, did they seem to think it was inadvisable, or did they take care to disguise their true opinion?
