My T does have expectations of me, but I don't feel they're unreasonable or unfair.
* She expects honesty and openness (but I expect the same of her).
* She expects me to reach out for help when I need it.
* She expects me to be up front about SI and SUI thoughts.
* She expects me to give 100% effort (btw, that definition fluctuates on circumstances).
* She expects me to alway show up (but that is more based on the type of person I am, not an actual requirement).
* She expects me to not push her away.
* She expects me to respect her and her boundaries.
That's about it. I don't pay her, my insurance does. And I would do these things whether or not it was an expectation...which is why she now expects it of me. It's just who I am.
