OK.. that kind of makes sense Perna

Also the more general definition erotic transference seems OK too, but like Sunrise I also think the word "erotic" makes it seem like it is a sexual thing.

I like my T, I value and respect her insight but I wouldn't use the word "love" to describe my feeling though. I definitely appreciate the information she has provided me.

I've read a lot of the other posts on transference. I don't think I do this either. I view my T as someone who is there to provide insight into why my life has gotten so out of balance. Maybe provide some ideas for bring it into better balance. Someone to practice actually voicing some of what is going on in my head with. I don't think I've pretended or related to her as if she someone other than a therapist. Is this a bad thing? Is it an indication that therapy is not being real successful?

It think part of me would like to feel more... something. Maybe that's why when you all talk about different attachments you've had with your T, I'm curious.

I think maybe I just don't have the capacity to feel things that other people do.
