I feel really silly even posting about this. My T is pretty open in terms of self disclosures but in an appropriate, responsible way. She and I speak all the time about different movies and actors/actresses and often will recommend them back-and-forth to each other. Part of this is because we both like a particular genre that is a little offbeat, so I've often felt very connected to her over this. Well, today, she mentioned in our session that her favorite actor of all time is someone who I never, ever would have predicted and who is in a very mainstream genre. Not only that but she is apparently a HUGE fan of his, not just casual. She even told me that she has never shared with me about him before because she figured that I'm not crazy about him. It's so weird. I mean it's totally no big deal at all, but I am just so surprised. It really makes me feel like I don't even know her when I thought I did. And somehow I feel betrayed and lied to, but I know that's not fair of me! This is kind of a weird question and I feel silly being so upset, but has anyone experienced anything like this? Thanks.
