The negative side to knowing a lot about a T's personal life

I think for me the most negative side of this would be if a T sometimes told personal stuff and sometimes decided not to do so. That you some sessions get to know about personal things and then the T decides to change boundaries and suddenly becomes more reserved.

I think that's part of what's difficult here, too. That he typically shares quite a bit. So it's like I feel connected in that way. If this was a friend, I'd certainly be like, "Oh wow, is everything OK? What's going on? Let me know if I can do anything." But here, it's a very different relationship, and situations like this highlight that.

I mean, I did send him a short e-mail to clarify that we wanted to keep our usual Monday appointment in addition to the Saturday one we just scheduled. And in there, I said that I hoped he and his family were OK--that I assumed everything wasn't totally OK, but that I hoped it wasn't too bad. And that I wasn't trying to pry, that I just wanted to let him know I cared. Even that, I wonder if it's crossing over a line. Though, I mean, he already knows I care about him deeply--OK, that I love him (in a platonic way)--and he's very accepting of that, so, logically, I don't see how expressing normal human emotions that one would share with, say, a coworker, is crossing a line. But there's still that part of me that's like, am I overstepping boundaries? Is he like, "Oh, great, I have to deal not only with what's going on in my life right now, but also LT's feelings/questions about what's going on in my life"? I hope not. I hope he's just like, "She cares about me--that's nice to hear."
