Ahhhhh.... sister, that is great your first session back went so well. Yay! And how totally cool you got 2 sessions in 2 days.

I've had the double booking thing happen 3 times. The first time, T sent the other guy packing. The second time, the other woman and I both offered to go away as it turned out neither of us really wanted to be there that day. T told her I was more needy so I stayed. The third time, T asked me very nicely (with charm) if I would cede my spot to the other guy and come back the following day. When he asks me like that, and turns those baby blues on me, I find it hard to say no. It worked out OK.

I told T another dream and the s x subject came up

Oddly, in dreams, when there is overt sex, it often isn't about sex, but dreams really about sex can be very symbolic, so you don't even realize at first they are about sex. So I understand what you mean when you say you walked into it blind. Yesterday, in session, I was going to share a dream about sex, but we ran out of time. This dream had more or less overt sexual themes, but in thinking about it, I don't think it was about sex at all, but about power and control and anxiety. Kind of scary. (Luckily, the "partner" in the dream wasn't T, so I don't think I would have had any trouble telling him the dream.)

sister, did you tell your T the bus dream? (Is that the one that was about sex?)
