I'll agree with everyone who says it's normal! Lots of people feel attracted to their therapists. I love my therapist. In my case, I've cast him in more of a father-figure role, but I know lots of people feel more of a romantic attraction. It's definitely normal, worth talking about, and a good therapist will explore what that means and treat that reaction therapeutically. There's nothing inappropriate about having feelings for your therapist. No good therapist would halt therapy or think ill of his/her client because of that. Trust me, they've heard it before. If you have the nerve to talk about it, it'd be a great way to talk about your feelings in relationships, etc. Lots of good therapy material!
