I know it's easy to believe what you think and what you feel about your therapist is real, no matter what he says. Would it make you feel awful if you realized that what he meant when he said hugging might feel too good, that he was talking about your feelings, not his?
Just wondering.
Sounds like you might do well to start looking for another therapist, I'm serious, because this sounds like it could lead to a lot of pain, especially if he lets you down and terminates you. The reason won't matter, if he does that. He sounds like he might have tremendous reserves of compassion, but be careful with transferring too much eroticism onto him.
