I have a thing for my shrink. However, I'm realistic and know that it's not happening because of ethics and other obvious reasons. I never let her know nor will I. I decided to stop going and move onto someone different without discussing it with her. I know this is normal and often called transference. However, I don't always think transference is the case. I've been to different therapists and shrinks and haven't felt that for them. So, I don't really think it's about this person listening to me. I have moved on which I think was the best move as I know she was able to tell I had a thing for her. Where my issue is, she helped me alot with things so I'm kind of bummed that I had to move on. Just wanting to get opinions as to whether you think this was a good move to not discuss it with her. I know this kind of thing happens alot. I just think there's no point in having the conversation as I'm just there to get meds. There's no time to work through the issue and it just seems pointless.
do you want her to miss you or something? i admit i think counceling is pointless but moving around is not gonna help. I would never judge you for what you do, but if it was me i would rather try to show her how amazing i am instead of quitting without telling her why. No matter how good looking or great you are shrinks are paid to be your "friends" in a way, another form of prostituion. To each their own bro and know i'm not judging you, good luck to you.
