I didn't mean to come across as ashamed. It was just hard to talk about with her at first. I'm actually grateful I felt those feelings because I realized I desired some closer relationships. That said, I'm not scared to say I'd still love to know my T outside of her office because my impression of her through her profession is obviously very good, but that just isn't in the cards
