Hi Susan,
Yes, I would say it is definitely different than the other friends that I have. And let me just interject here that I have many, many other wonderful friends, so it's not like I'm being all clingy and co-dependent here. But the reason that it's different is that he IS my former therapist. So that means that I don't call him. I don't initiate any contact with him away from his work. I know that there are still limitations, so I am not as free him as I am with my friends (like with hugging, etc.) because I don't want to send the wrong impression.
