See previous message (breakthrough), but I wanted to give a quick answer before I try to get some sleep tonight.
I had never thought about my feelings being transference before. I had never really thought of them being inappropriate either, or unreasonable. I still don't think all of my love is unreasonable. As I think I've mentioned on here before, competence in itself, let alone compassion, accountability, and caring, are all traits worthy of love. With this new breakthrough though (again, read previous post --sorry!), I am starting to wonder if I actually am able to separate out what is transference and what is her, by doing things that make me remember who I'm dealing with.
But this "transference crisis" definitely came about because of my mood. Everything is intensified a hundred notches.
I haven't talked with my therapist about this and she hasn't pushed it, though I'm sure she realizes. Personally, I'm thinking that talking about this may not be _her_ forte, but I know its certainly not mine -- so I may not have really given her a chance.
