Angel of the past,

I think because of my past SA I also have a lot of problems with this issue. I seem to view every incidence of direct attention as being in some way sexual. So I get what you are saying. All the talk here about errrrotic transference had me scared too. But at the same time it gave me comfort to know that if feelings do surface, I shouldn't immediately panic.

I haven't felt physically attracted to my T at this point. But since others here have shared their struggles, I feel more prepared if by chance it happens to me. I would still most certainly freak out initially; but I don't think it would as bad.

There have been a few times when I have read things here on PC and thought... "WTH, why would someone think that or worry about that?" Only to find myself in the same situation 2 months down the road. One such topic for me was the discussion of inner child and ego states. When I first saw these comments, I totally didn't get it at all--until one early morning encounter a month or two later.

AOTP, I would not worry about this happening to you. What I get from these threads is that if it happens, its just like all the other comfortable crap that comes up during therapy. It is just another thing you have to work through.
