I guess I'm a little out of the norm here because I don't think I have any erotic feelings toward my therapist. I don't think of him in a sexual way though I know I've cast him in a father-figure role. Instead of wanting him sexually, sometimes I fantasize that he sees me somewhere with a new love (you know, in the arms of some new love-of-my-life whom I will hopefully find one day). So I guess I want my therapist to see me being healthy and happy and in love. That's pretty darn close to making him into a father-figure I think. I love the way my therapist looks at me though. I do have very very strong feelings towards him -- it just doesn't seem to go sexual for me. I guess that makes it easier for me. My therapist is a lot older than I am -- I remember that I didn't want a therapist around my own age for fear that I would have too strong sexual feelings for him.
