it all has to do with barriers. There seems to be so many loop holes and barriers being put forth in front of us now, more so than when I was younger. Times are changing right in front of me rapidly, and I am a firm believer that perhaps it is time to take a look at things in a more modern way perhaps. There is talk of transference when the T or the client is perhaps attracted to one another, but that happens in nature when two people meet almost anywhere. One opens up talking on a first meeting and the other becomes attracted at the comments and openness from the other. I understand the power issues as well, the T having the position of power over the client per say, but in no way do I feel that in any way from my situation. I have had a strong position in the military, and extensive training in doing some of the very same things as my T does with me. I find myself pulling info from my T at times by accident due to my training and we laugh when we realize it. I stop and we continue. My heavy combat action is what got me to see my T for my PTSD, and my sessions are almost over. I expect that we will act on our feelings after time has run its course. It's just a shame that when two people who truly have feeling for one another fall into this situation, it is forbidden due to the work environment, with no consideration given into the side that perhaps it might actually be real.
