Flowerb, when I read the first post I thought the same thing. I stopped at the "Why wouldn't you want to feel special to me?" and asked myself, Do I want my T to think I am special? And my answer was NO! Then of course came the Why? Am I abnormal that I like the fact that my T sees a lot of different patients an likely doesn't think of me as special?..... I also eventually came to the same conclusion, wanting to be special suggests that I want more from the relationship than I should or deserve.

Miss C. I am frequently concerned about what messages I may send to men. My experiences also suggest that hugs mean a totally different thing to guys than they do to women. There is no cuddling with my husband. With the exception of the men I work with, the most of the men I've known have been this way, just waiting for an opportunity to pounce on you. The guys I work with are probably like that too, they just are more refined and hide it better than others. Sorry guys, I know I am being very sexist and making a generalizations here. I'm just in an area where the tooth:tattoo ratio is not so great.
