btw: I read your title as though you were feeling for your therapist too much. Took me more than a few moments to figure out that you did not mean that...or did you?

No I didn't mean that but it could be interpreted either way! She has shown a number of signs and I feel that she is too caught up in whatever is going for her at the minute.
I feel that t has grown cold and distant lately!

I do feel for my t too much but in this instance I meant I feel I am too much for her. She doesn't understand me anymore and I am starting to think no one does.
I wish I didn't know so much about t and her personal life, this case she didn't tell me what was happening, somebody else did. You can't unlearn what you have learnt.

Maybe you can start asking? See if you can get some reassurance that way?

Sorry you are in the same situation

it hurts! I am going to ask my t tomorrow if I am too much, it never actually occurred to me to ask. She would want me to ask and to stay in contact with her rather than shut her down!
