Thanks. As you I think what matters most is how she can be helpful to me but this about how she votes has a deeper meaning to me.


I don´t think she would judge me if she understood I vote differently from her but if so that would mean that she in therapy agrees to things I say but in real life she wouldn´t.

As an example I vote for left wing parties as I think it´s important to support the poor and sick and give them a decent welfare if needed. The right wing parties on the other hand think people should have less welfare money.

As I´m in the group who at the moment need welfare and as I rather often talk about unemployment, shortage of money and such it would feel odd if I knew my T voted AGAINST a decent welfare or against something else that´s important in my life.

That doesn´t mean she would talk about it or show it openly but it´s still a matter of how she answers to things I say and what she actually and "in real life" thinks about them. She wouldn´t openly say something like "I don´t think people should have more welfare money" but instead she would try to support me.


But to me this is fake as she then shares a view that´s adapted to me, not shared in an authentic way.


In that respect voting becomes important as it has a lot to do with values in life and towards other people.
