I feel sorry for him too.
Even though it's anonymous, I've felt a bit bad about mentioning it. It's nothing to be ashamed about of course, and it happens to everyone. But it's an issue on the client side too! Trying to figure out what to do in such an unusual relationship is hard.
We've been through so much together, I think his vulnerabilities are known to me far more than is usual in therapy. I saw him while we were both evacuated from Katrina, I was with him through the aftermath. It's hard to put that horse back in the barn once it got out.
Still, this is a different sort of intimate, I suppose. I make every effort to avoid having my glance at crotch level, and it's really a distraction I'd rather not have.
