>>As to looking over my back for other women that I believe holds in any and ALL relationships...will they cheat, will they go with someone more attracrtive more this or that.
Yeah, that's anywhere and everywhere. I think the strong reaction people have to this topic is due to the exploitation that can and does occur in many cases. If, for example, someone has had a break with reality or has gone to a therapist for help dealing with a traumatic event, then a therapist making a move on them is taking advantage of a vulnerable person. That's pretty sick. However, it is possible to have two consenting adults participating in the therapist/patient relationship. It's not just the patient having emotional reactions in the relationship. It's a two way street. Therapists are people and susceptible to falling in love just like anyone else. The heart knows no reason. Here's an interesting page on John Haule's work...
