Side note: you are obviously very worried about messing up and making a mistake regarding boundaries. That's why you want a rule to stick to rather than a recommendation you can bend when you feel that you need to. So I would explore why you need that to be so clear, if I were you. What about this makes it so hard to handle? Do you not trust your own judgement? Why not? Is it something else that's bothering you (fear of punishment or abandonment)? What is fueling your struggle with what she said?

ETA: And discuss what you discover with your T. It could lead to some really great conversation.
