I'm usually not worried about boundaries in my therapy because I trust myself first. I'd like to think that I'd run from an unhealthy t relationship.

With kashi, I am having odd moments where we recognize the parallels in each other's lives. He picked up on it and mentioned it today, how striking it is. He even knew that he obscure comedian I love. He knew exactly who I was talking about Usually our family/abuse/issues and backgrounds are what overlap. I've even pondered with him what if I had met him as a friend. He is the first t that I almost wish I met as a friend rather than a t.

He originally had a boundary that he could not do the same kind of driving phobia work as my old t did because he did not have the liability insurance to cover a potential problem. It seemed like a firm boundary. Today he seemed to change his mind as long as I signed a liability waiver saying I won't sue him if we get into a car accident during the therapy. I feel like he is breaking his own boundary but on the other hand I need the driving phobia help.

My instinct tells my me that although we are both reasonably ethical people, that our mutual friendliness could lead to muddy waters. I don't think he realizes that he does things for me that I don't think he does for others.

I am I looking a gift horse in the mouth or has anyone else experienced a too good t relationship that unexpectedly went south? Kashi is a well meaning guy. This is not an unethical person. But I don't think he sees it like I do.
