I don't think so. I frequently ask things about him (following the rule of saying everything which comes to mind). He never answers, but will ask why I want to know, and, his favorite, " what do you imagine the answer might be?" Actually, this is not nearly as frustrating as it sounds, because he is directing my attention back inside me, while he listens intently. It always seems to end up with me being a bit more comfortable with all the feelings which are swirling around inside me, and realizing I really didn't need to know personal things about him, and also that I really need him as an analyst, not as a friend.
