Crush on my Therapist

I have the biggest crush on my therapist. He is gay and a lot older than me but I just find him sexually attractive. He is the kindest, most compassionate person and also very good looking. I love his laugh and the way he talks and the way he dresses. He dresses in bright colors and I find it hot. He's also one of the few people I trust and he seems to get me and at least tries to understand what I am going through. Does anyone else have the same kind of feelings for their therapist?

Hi,

I saw a male therapist for a while, this was before I was diagnosed BPD but we explored issues surrounding childhood stuff and some of my destructive behaviours and addictions.

He was an exceptionally kind and spiritual man in a down-to-earth and boundaried way and I always felt safe around him. I did develop feelings for him and at his suggestion went to a rehab where he worked. At the rehab I felt as though I was in love with him and started fearing I had gone there hoping he would rescue me/to please him. I shared this in a group, which was extremely uncomfortable, and eventually left the rehab and started drinking. I think at that point that I was so desperate for any kind of love or understanding that I overly clung to and gave him too much power.

I've managed to acquire 2 months off alcohol and pills via a support group and, during this time, was diagnosed with BPD.

Now I feel really pissed off with him and the ######6 rehab for having suggested that I didn't have any mental health issues, just addictive ones. I still think he's a good therapist and a good soul but I'm relieved I'm going to be getting BPD targeted therapy in future.

I had one on my therapist as well, but it faded
Most of the time my attractions do...

I'm not sure how yours would respond but I talked to mine about it and we dealt with it well together until it was no longer an issue.
