Besides, it's a professional, not a "business" relationship.

It was right at the beginning of the session and I even wondered if it was something he had pre-planned to say for some reason. I don't know that I did anything to make him think I would take the relationship the wrong way, other than disclose some intense transference. It definitely wasn't something I had just said though, because I don't think Id said anything.
Thanks. I thought your idea he was projecting his inability to keep things professional was interesting. I have a very strong connection to him. I have no idea how he feels about me but my gut feeling has always been that he loves me. On the other hand I have bookoo personal baggage and don't trust a thing I think, so I could be way off on that.
