I think it is fairly easy to look at the outside of a relationship and say "that's beautiful". It may be something entirely different if one is in it.
Although I do like and respect them both as accomplished, smart women, using celebrities as an example for relationships usually isn't a good idea. Perhaps what your therapist was saying that, although theoretically possible to have such a relationship, for YOU, right now, it might not be best. There is a lot of truth in mourning what we never had, and likely never will. As another poster indicated, we are adults now. We get to be our own parents. When we are ready, we step into that role, and it is awesome. It's a self-contained feeling of efficacy and calm. "I don't need to reach out, I can reach in" type thing. Perhaps you could discuss this kind of goal with your therapist as more fitting for you? I don't know though, it's just an idea.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
