Everyone is sensitive to certain kinds of feedback, it's one of the drawbacks of a place like this and sharing so much. In real life, things people say to us, even in kindness can sometimes bother us more if it's a certain topic or certain way. It's human nature.

It doesn't matter what any of us think, 100 of us could be telling you to pull away and that it still seems a lot, 100 of us could be saying, no...its fine do whatever.... but the end of the day. YOU are the only one who can really decide your path. You know your limits, it may feel like less but it could still seem like a lot to others.... we can't really know how someone will feel or react to something, while T's are more understanding and tolerant due to their job, rather than friends or family might be about some things, they are still human and have limits but they are also capable of saying, ok we need to talk about this. It's too much etc

The thing is, I can't for the life of me understand why anyone would want or need that much contact or reassurance form anyone, T or not.... but it's because we are different people. Just like you and others may find it hard to understand why I love keeping people at bay and why I pefer things like movies and going to eat, alone rather than with someone. Why even if T said "lets hang out every day for a week" I'd say no. For me it makes sense because it's my comfort, it's my needs... so for you that reassurance or whatever is your comfort and needs. do whatever you feel is right for you, with caution but also don't be so terrified of whatever may happen, this relationship wont last forever and I urge you and everyone, to just make the most of it while it's here. Meaning, being in the moment as much as you can and trying not to panic so much about what may come. I'd have bet money on many things with my T... but leaving us all with 2 weeks notice... is not one of them. It's the hardest thing I've ever experienced and it's taught me that nothing is forever, nothing is predictable and you truly can't fully ever trust anyone. You just gotta live for today, for now.

So, you do you, take the online comments with a grain of salt. You wont like every one of them, hell you may hate this one, and that's fine... at the end of the day its your journey, your therapy, your life and it's about you. Give yourself a little credit at being the best version of you that there is... and knowing you can make the proper choices. All the best for whatever you choose
