Sadly that this true. Therapy is not real life as such. The number of rules and boundaries etc make it the most constrained relationship of any kind.
I am aware and always will be that T is a stop gap. An aid for my life. Assistance help of kinds. To allow to much control to be handed over to T is a mistake. To invest my soul in its entire would be for me a mistake. I give what I fell I need to give. I look for what I feel I need. I never let day dreams to over come my emotional self. I still protect myself. I will not allow anyone to say let it all go with T. I would be disappointed with the result.

To protect and to serve... my true self.
