My T would call the riot police if I tapped him on the arm I think.

I'm still riding the high! It was instinctively & just happened. Tehe!
I don't want to bug him with constant texts though...he'll read them but not sure if he'll respond 😞

Yes - I once asked him to hold me when we discussed my suicidal thoughts and general feeling of melancholy and he refused. We were discussing why, and he said - this is talk therapy, we don't touch each other. I felt it was a very cold way of putting it.

That makes me feel that I don't really have permission to say, tap him on the arm in a friendly way, even if the circumstance was appropriate.

Not cold exactly, maybe I felt like he was impatient or scolding. To be fair when I asked, he did ask if he could just hold me with words, and in that moment I was so despairing at my thoughts, that I said no, I wanted to be held physically.

How do you hold someone with words?

I think my marriage counselor is able to "hug with his voice" (both tone of voice and words he's saying. Though if you want a real hug, it's not the same...

You look on his Facebook page, again and you see he has a new profile picture and your heart immediately beats a 100 times faster. **** he looks so good! His smile �� And it's taken somewhere abroad. How I would love to travel the world with him...
How can I go to sleep now? I'm wide awake after seeing this. My heart won't slow down.

Hmm, don't think I could be comfortable with that. My T and I have maintained physical contact throughout every session for over a year. I was going to say "we use a lot of non-sexual touch" but to be fair, I do the vast majority. I do often worry one day he'll reset the boundaries, especially as I now know that our way is unusual.
Thanks for this!

I dunno, I never asked him to clarify, I just assumed he meant he would say things that would make me feel like he is there, or he cares, or something

Ooh yes, I had a T song

'What's your T song?' Almost worthy of a thread of its own

Ok, this is really embarrassing but who cares, its the internet, right? I have a lot of T songs, but maybe one in particular is Maroon 5's Sugar. I never analyzed why, but I suppose I imagine T is pining away for me and singing it, I guess

How about you?

There was a thread on exactly this topic a couple of years ago.
Maybe you could revive it?

When someone is going down on you and you start to imagine that it's your T doing it to you, not the person actually doing it. That really put it out there in the open for me. No more pretending! No, I never told my T that!!! I would be mortified!

We're tackling the driving phobia and T is riding shotgun. Scratching his facial hair in a loud and bristly way, one wonders if he is leaving hairs in my car.

Cloning, anyone? Just a thought. Would be nice to take home T 2.0, who may not object to the things I want to do to him.
Thanks for this!

Okay, now I have this random mental image of the entire couch jammed into the backseat of your car giggling and whispering about your T

You're in the deepest, darkest, most shameful place in therapy, your T puts on her reading glasses and you think 'oh! Sooooo cute!'
