Transference

I thought that I’d developed a “crush” on my therapist and googled and discovered the term transference and also counter transference.

Most of the information recommended telling your therapist. Although it was awkward I did tell him.

I asked if I should see someone else. He said it wasn’t necessary. He also said things like how special I was to him, how he’d been looking forward to our appointment etc. it seemed odd he would say things like that to someone who already admitted to a crush- it was fuel to the fire.

Do you think this is odd? Or is it my messed up brain trying to see something that isn’t there?
