She wanted to be honest, so "it can happen". How stupid of me to invest so much time and energy in something that isn't real. I feel crushed. Honestly she could have lied. That was our last session before the break and now the sentence "it can happen" will be all I think about. Thoughts and comments appreciated. Thanks in advance.

the bolded part. I read something in a blog one time that I remember because it helps me along those lines when I start thinking that the relationship with t isn't "real" (I rather offended my t earlier in the year by insinuating that it's fake, oops), it talks about the therapeutic relationship as a unique, deeply genuine relationship - but one that exists within the strictly prescribed boundaries of the appointment time/t's office (or something like that). I've forgotten the blogger's name.
