I'm glad other people have talked about T attachment in a positive light. I don't feel negatively towards the imbalance. I have a husband and I have my best friend and I don't expect my T to meet any other need except with what needs to be done with my depression in terms of treatment. I value his nonjudgmental attitude (or so he presents to me that way) and I see it a lot like riding a bike with training wheels. I know I won't get a bad reaction so I can practice being open and as it gets easier, I can apply that to my life.
Not everyone finds value in that. But I do.
