BSD, thanks so much for the quick reply. You certainly hit on some good points.Yes, I do have trouble feeling love that others offer me and envy those without this problem. I beat myself up on occasion for missing out on love that I know my T is offering. But "the stranger" just won't let me forget that pesky pay-for-hire thing. Seems ironic too, because when I am well enough to be able to feel loved, I won't need to see him! With my DH many of the same problems exist, only with my kids do I feel reciprocal unconditional love.
And about the separation issue, that's probably true too. I just spent 3 weeks away, then we have about a month together, then he's away for vacation.
And, to make matters worse, for financial reasons I'm going to have to decrease starting next week from 2/week, as we've been doing for the past few years, to 1/week. I'm anxious about that too, don't know which will be easier. And I'm not REALLY sure whether I'm anxious about cutting down the weekly sessions or (subconsciously, since the official reason is finances) cutting down because I'm anxious.
