Then they say you can't have a successful relationship with them because the balance is not equal. Please show me a relationship this is of equal power. Bull puckey!
Maybe my therapist has power in the therapy room, but outside the room, if given a chance, he would lose all that power! Besides, aren't we really the one in power in the room. We deceide what we say, and do and if we want to leave we can, they can't make us do anything.
lol Just give me one night, and I would have my T on his knees begging for more! lol Tell me then who is the most powerful! lol Men are only more powerful if we LET them!
I do see why most people shouldn't be with there T's. But I think with a mentally stable client if both were interested in each other, it should be an option. I don't think my T is any more intellegent or mentally stable than me. Yes, he is helping me with my problems, but so can a husband, and a friend.
I know I am probabably going to get blasted, but it is what I think. I think the idea of transference is a joke. If anything it is just a "tool" for them to use to think what we are feeling torwards them isn't real and when I mean real, I mean like in everyday life. I feel it is something that they can hide behind to be more objective in order to save their butts. JMHO.
