I can understand that - if your T is a significant connection in a world with little connection it can feel like a horrible, one sided parody of friendship. I think part of the work in therapy is to take what works in that relationship and build connections outside - and is something your T should be able to help with. Not in a how do I make friends kind of way, but how do I cope with being in a relationship with other people kind of way if that makes sense.
However we do it, I think therapy can be very hard indeed, mine certainly is.
