Hmmm Pink, I am trying to understand why you think you don't see him as a human.

I agree that you are probably starting to. To wit, you're post just now, sound like you are talking about a person who you care deeply about. That sounds human to me. Actually you sound about as frustrated with him as I do with my husband. Or, they sound equally distant.

I don't recall whether your T discloses much about himself but if you could engage him in some personal way so that he reveals something, then he might become more human to you.

Is your reluctance just a ruse to push him away?

My T is an analyst also, very confusing, close yet distant simultaneously. Hmmm.
