Antigua,
I felt so ashamed of the secret too. I think that's what took so darned long for me to be able to tell him. I guess I needed to get a lot of "okay" experiences with him under my belt before the big one could get out.And I think perhaps you come by your feelings about his and your self-protection honestly. If others have treated you differently or reacted badly, especially when you were younger, of course you would be cautious. I hope this is something your T can help you with in time.
Warmly,
gg
