Thanks smileygal!

The vulnerability hangover sounds about right! It does feel like a bit of dangerous space. I am pretty good at telling my close friends that I love them on a weekly basis or a bit more frequently but I've only known my T since like November, and she took most of December off, so like 6-7 months. I would never have told former T that I loved her this soon! I don't know what got into me!

If she hadn't responded, or if she had said something like, "I care about you." I would probably have understood it in my rational mind, but have been disappointed in my emotional self. So I do think it is good that she responded in a positive, caring, loving way. I'm just a little freaked out now.

Maybe it is because I don't feel like I deserve love. Or maybe I am like, she doesn't know enough about me to know if she loves me, yet. So I don't totally trust it. I don't know.....kind of hard to say!

I *probably* should talk this over with her but I am super scared to!

Thanks for your response! I really appreciate it! HUGS kit
