She is definitely RTDT

I'm not trying to be some psycho stalker creep who climbs up the side of her house in the middle of the night and opens the window. "I KNOW WHERE YOU SLEEP."

My other T's told me basic things like, "Oh, yeah... I live in __ town and I like to do XYZ." So I'm not looking for anyone's life story. I just want to know her interests and see if she can relate on some topics. It's not a "must have" sort of deal... just a "nice to have".
my T has been very open with me about basic things, books, movies, music he likes, and some "lesser" more personal things I know his wife's name, he has two girls and their names, I know he has two brothers, things like that...

He's always answered all my questions, but I still always start out by saying that I'll understand if he doesn't want to answer me, but I was wondering...

we established early on that; the only things he won't get into are politics and religion, he's always willing to listen help me figure out anything I question in those areas, but he won't bring his personal belies into therapy..
