My T has very clear boundaries. Just handshakes, that's it. I'm sure there would be NO WAY he would consent to a photograph!

But I'm very happy with this arrangement. Somehow it really makes me feel cared for. I can't explain this, you would think it would be the opposite. I think if he were looser with his boundaries, it might feed into my transference issues and I would end up feeling worse, not better, about our relationship. It is very DOCTOR/PATIENT, and I know that sort of satifies my father craving, to have sort of a strict, no nonsense kind of man in my life.

If he overstepped these boundaries, I would know he would no longer have my best interests at heart, and that is what really touches me.
