It makes sense to me (and isn't it pretty normal?) that you'd want your T to like you. Usually, we're sharing really private, vulnerable stuff with our Ts.

How (and why?) would you share that type of stuff with someone that you felt didn't like you?

To me, if I felt like a T didn't like me, I'd be more worried about them judging me, and I tend to think that someone judging me for something that I've shared (even if they're not sharing that judgement with me) isn't going to be able to empathize or help much.
