> No, and I'm not proud of that.
> Pride has nothing to do with it.For me, the pride factor does matter. Part of my goal in entering therapy is to learn to trust my gut instinct, make choices, and then be able to stand firm on my choices. But the issue raised in this thread touches a painful chord. I would be willing to enter a personal relationship with my T despite the fact that it would hurt many people aside from myself. It's quite humiliating to realize that I'm still so willing to inflict pain upon myself after the successes I've made in therapy. I wish I were in a place where I could take the "high road" on this issue and then be proud of putting myself first.
