I too have that problem. But, I am not so sure that I percieve it as such a problem. My therapist seems to think so. He believes that I tend to define love in terms as fatherly and I am just looking for someone to take care of me. And my reply is so what? Why is that a problem? Is that really a problem? Is there something wrong with me if I defien love in terms of more of a fatherly role than a romantic role? Hmm... looks like I may be looking at a few more months in the chair with the cute shrink, eh? What is yoru thought on this?? Suggestions? Wishing my shrink wasn't married. It is funny, I finding myself thinking that I quantee he is a wonderful father and sometimes wish he was my dad. At the same time I am very attracted to him. Wish I oculd tell him all of these things but I am kinda embarassed. These thoughts seem a bit abnormal, hmmm? Thoughts, suggestions, or comments?
