My T is a complete blank slate, she has almost never said anything to me that is not a reflection back of what I am saying to her or an analysis of it, or a question about it. She never shares any thoughts about anything else. I am questioning whether this is helpful. It feels hard to feel that we have a relationship. I wish she would share something. I don't mean personal things, I mean something like a poem she likes or something she saw or read. My ex-T used to share thoughts with me about other things. I used to feel that it made her a little vulnerable, and that it made us closer, and I felt that it was a good thing for my therapy. I'm curious about what you all think about this. And what other people's experience of it is.
