Sometimes I feel like I want to be close to my T, and I don't usually do anything about that. Yesterday I asked her to sit with me. I had a reason for it. I was going over some things I had written/drawn. She didn't hesitate to sit next to me. Once we'd gone over everything, she stayed there and I started feeling really uncomfortable. I moved as far away from her as I could without actually moving to another seat, which turned out to be not that far. It's all very frustrating because I was thinking, "This is what you wanted and NOW you're uncomfortable?" Anyone else experienced anything like that? How close are you from your T? Do you always sit in the same places?
Long ago I had a T. He wasn't the one for me. Maybe he wasn't very good at all. In one of our conversations, he said that everything I did told him something about me, up to where I decided to sit. I had been sitting in a chair opposite of him. Next session I came in and sat down *right* beside of him, practically in his lap. He didn't seem surprised in the least. I didn't stay there 'cause I was merely playing with him. I explained why I'd done it and he said, the only thing that would strike him as odd is if I'd brought my own chair to sit in.
