I hate when the sofa is still warm, or when I can smell perfume. And I always rearrange the sofa cushions so that my corner spot is available. I laugh when I do it, and compare it to dogs marking their territory.
But...
I know it's naive, but somehow I never thought of my therapist treating people who exposed themselves to children, or worse. I try to be nonjudgmental, but that just bothers me. He has to have positive feelings about a client to do good work with them. He's told me that. So that means he has positive feelings about clients who very well might be creepy library guy. Or worse.
I try not to be judgmental about people. I believe in redemption, and I believe that people are more than the worst thing they do.
But that my therapist enters into positive therapeutic alliances with someone who traumatized me, or someone like him, bothers me.
I guess maybe I'm being wrong or judgmental in that, but he's my therapist mommy, and he's supposed to protect people from the creepy library guys of the world. Down deep in the simplest part of me, I feel that way.
