I worry that your T is using you to meet her own emotional needs. I imagine that it can feel quite intoxicating to be the object of intense transferential love, appreciation and idealization. To me, it doesn't sound like your T is doing a good enough job keeping the therapeutic relationship safe and boundaried. Sure you might need to get out and sure ballroom dancing can be a lot of fun but IMHO the therapeutic relationship is where you explore how you can build the life you want to have. It's not T's job to build it for you.
If you wanted a romantic partner in life would T become that just to "help" you?
