Ladybug,
glad you see you checking in. I guess in the end it is a real relationship due to the love/hate to be needy thing. Therapy I mean.
The thing is, no matter how you view the therapuetic relationship, and no matter that it is a paid relationship, we must all remember that we probably have had people in our lives that started out as either a co-worker or say hairdresser, whatever and that person ends up being a friend. A closeness develops through daily contact and in the case of a therapist you tell them such intimate details that it is inevitable you care for someone that listens to you and tries to help regardless if it is a business relationship or not.
I am glad it sounds like you are in a good place. Missing people that have had a place in our lives is a healthy thing.
take care
rsk
