Absolutely Sister Rags, I'm not disputing that at all. It just seemed to me like there is a difficulty on the clients part to move through and past that transference, that's why I said what I did. I'm certainly not invalidating how he feels, I would never do that.

I myself have had a bit of transference as well. It was in a very different way than this OP, but I do have somewhat of an understanding of how it can and does happen quite often. Thanks for the link!
