is he a social worker or counselor? if he is, there's an ethical problem with him dating you while you're in outpatient treatment. a counselor dated my daughter and we got his license pulled in Oklahoma and Kansas and Texas. you see, your counselor has enough information about your modds and such that the powers that be think that it makes you very vulnerable..in case the therapist has an ulterior motive. how old are you? our daughter was underage.....pat
