Hey Sassy--
I sometimes wonder how I would interpret these things if I did have a more seductive relationship with him. For now, I guard my personal boundaries like a zealot.Yesterday I was scheduling some sessions, and some of them are at his professional office and some of them are at his office suite in his home. The amusing thing is that both offices are furnished almost identically, except that the prof office has much more clutter. I remarked that his home office was somewhat smaller and he caught on right away and said "oh, well I can wear my white coat... or put up a screen" I'm not sure whether that would make me feel more or less uncomfortable. Bottom line is that there are older men out there in the world, and as a member of the human species, I had better learn to tolerate a certain amount of emotional intimacy. It's hard enough to open up to someone about this stuff, but at least there is some relief by making light of it.
thanks for hugs... if you were a 60-something male, I might shirk away, but, I'm working on that.
