Hi Dustin:
I'm so sorry about the cold response you received from your T today. I think maybe you caught her off guard Dustin.
Sometimes when you express your innermost thoughts about them, they get embarrassed. They may not tell you this, or say anything right away. She may need some time
to look back on this and redo her reaction. But bear in mind Dustin, they do not jump up and grab you and put you in a bear hug lock.....that doesn't happen. They have to have that air of professionalism around to protect you. It's not their job to always " hug" you and stuff. That come with time or maybe she's not a HUGGER. I told one of my T's one time that I was attracted to her, and she said she knew it......but that nothing would happen in her office. I was thrown for a bit, and I said, " no, not that kind of attraction" just that I find you appealing. I LIED!!!! But that happens to us girls too. I've never had that for a male therapist. I do not usually choose men. I want comfort from something warm
and tender.........and PRETTY....because life's too short to spend " bumping" uglies!!!! lol..................hahahahaha little therapy joke there. Got ya laffing I bet?????.......................
Anyway, think about it over the next week Dustin. Give her a chance to talk to you about the next time. She will. Or bring it up again when you feel stronger. Don't cry over it now. You didn't get the response you wanted and I know that hurts. But, did you really want that from her???? You may have set yourself up for that too. It's too soon in the relationship for that Dustin. I like my therapist now too. But
it's very new and she hugs me when I let her. It's not all touchy feelie Dustin, there's a fine gray line legally too. She has to be sure she isn't sending out vibes to you that aren't
there. Don't worry about it. It will all come out in the wash!!
Take care, son. You can have all the LOVE you want here.
It's there for the asking.
