One thing I've noticed in reading threads on here and with my younger sister is that the client becomes very emotionally dependent on their therapist, and then end up hurt when they realize the feelings aren't mutual. They can't be as the therapist has numerous clients, and it's basically a business relationship--this is their job. That doesn't mean they don't like their clients, but they understand that they need to keep their professional distant so they can provide impartial advice.
