Reply to "Sexual Tension?"

Thanks, BLT, for the article. A little hard to read emotionally, but I agreed with it. Like AG suggested, I'm more interested in what my T thinks/feels about me because of my desire to separate projection from reality - or his stuff from my stuff. To deal with projection requires a different approach than dealing with real feelings. My T said something a few weeks ago about setting emotional boundaries. I think that's exactly what I'd like to do. I love my T and our connection, and I hope it continues to grow. But I need to start moving past the ET at some point so I can focus on the underlying issues. Honestly, I'd rather not know if he's attracted to me in that way. If he can find a way to talk around it or put it delicately, that might be my preference. I really just want to talk out my thoughts and the reactions and conclusions I've had. I'll be the first to admit that ET can be really distracting, but simply ignoring it doesn't make it go away. It has to be worked through.
