Surely therapy has taught you that no question is stupid. :)
You probably actually represent the majority of therapy clients. My therapist says that most of his clients don't develop a really strong transference. They just don't end up on Psycho-Babble Psychology as much.
Just like there are different types of romantic relationships, romantic, companionate, a bunch others I can't recall, there are probably different types of therapy relationships.
If you feel she's helpful to you, if you feel that you are learning and growing, if you have a strong therapeutic alliance, don't worry about the lack of the therapeutic equivalent to passion in the relationship. In fact, maybe you should count yourself lucky. :)
