Sometimes I think the red flag behavior can be seen in the clients too. When I put my former T up on a pedestal and believed he could do no wrong - I was setting myself up for trouble. If he had leanings in an unhealthy direction - I would have been a perfect target. If anyone questioned me, I'd blow them off (or getted pissed off at them...and I did!) because he was the center of my universe. When I see people in that situation, it makes me nervous for them.

This is true, but it is ultimately up to the T to be aware of this, and not exploit the client, even if the client is doing this. The responsibility of keeping the boundries is the T's, and that it why it is so important to have a ethical T. But sadly, not all T's are well themselves, and clients can get hurt in the process.
