I’m really scared that this means things are not safe anymore, but part of me doesn’t want to tell him I feel that way because I also want to know more. I just wonder where the boundary is in his mind if he’s ok with this, I mean it has to be somewhere before actually doing something physical, right?

If it is true that his boundary has to be somewhere before actually doing anything physical, there wouldn’t several of us on here telling our stories of how we have been devastated by allowing intimacies to enter the relationship. You may be curious but it’s not something to play with. Remember *you* have the right to place your own boundaries.

It’s completely his responsibility to keep you safe and be out for your best interest. If he’s inappropriate, it’s never your fault. But please be aware and use your own boundaries to keep yourself safe.

I don’t know your therapist but don’t assume it can never lead to anything physical because it has happened to several of us here.
