I brought up all of this with both her and my T. J says her main motivation is helping me out and she doesn't care about the other stuff going on, which is very sweet of her but I'm worried it could lead to some serious resentment/frustration later on. She also says that she's happier here than she was in her most recent couple living situations (at least she's getting a lot more sleep, that's obvious). Re: the sleeping situation, the T says we're both getting something positive out of it even if our relationship is not romantic. She and I aren't planning on going any further physically than just the literal sleeping, we're both agreed that a sexual relationship would not be healthy for us at this point.
I'm afraid of saying no to the situation though. When I mentioned to my T that if I don't do this we're back to discussing social workers and hospitalization he just gave me that look like, he's not saying yes but we both know the answer is yes. I'm not making progress as quickly as I should be and a hospital refeeding is my worst fear right now.
A part of me is just, this is obviously temporary, no one would want to do this in the long term so she's going to stay maybe a month more at best, so I should just enjoy it while it lasts. Based on the conversations with her and my T, it looks like they both want to go forward with this, but it's "entirely my decision". I feel like I'm just being selfish but I want to keep her around a little longer at least...
