I assumed he was single. I was so sure of it, I even wondered why since he seemed so sociable, intelligent, and handsome. Then one day a couple of months in, he said something about his girlfriend - I was absolutely stunned! This actually turned out to be very important to me, because it used to be that when I was in love or in a relationship, I didn't feel emotionally available to anyone else (friends for example) and I realized I had assumed my therapist was single due to his warmth and uncanny emotional availability even toward me, a client. I learned a lot from that and revisited my emotional and relational flexibility
