Pink I am so happy for you! What a wonderful session you had today and to have him say the words "I love you" to the little girl in you must have been a jaw dropper. I remember the first time my T told my "I love you" that moment sticks in my mind like it was yesterday. It was at the end of a session and in a spontaneous moment as I was leaving I turned to him and said "I love you" and he looked me in the eyes and said "I love you too!" If I live to be 200 years old I will never forget that moment. I hope you will be able to accept this statement from him and charish it for many years to come. I hope you learn to love him back in the most pure sense of the word. Love is such a wonderful healing thing but I sure it can be confusing too. I was a little confused at first but I came to know my T love as the love I had always wanted from someone. The kind of love that accepted me as I was, the kind of love that would not intentionally hurt, the kind of love that makes you feel so warm and accepted inside. It is a wonderful thing and I am so happy for you. My therapist once told me therapy was all about two people loving each other. Love was the power that heals.
