Estrellita!
You are in my head--everything you're expressing is how I've been feeling about my psychologist-in-training. While we only saw each other for about 6 weeks (trying to get over a rough breakup and all the baggage and self-doubt that came along with it) I developed a crush. An intense crush. Now it's been about a month and I'm dying to seem him again.
I don't know what to do. I want to let him know somehow but to be honest some of the other posts were pretty harsh and scared me way off from doing that. But it seems that they were just trying to be honest, therein helpful.
I certainly had the same thoughts as you as far as feeling like the crush was reciprocated. Obviously though, that may very well not be true in this case.
I guess I have to let it go, it's just safer to hold on to it for now. (You know, *having* someone instead of no one--even though you don't actually *have* that person at all. Know what I mean? Maybe not, lol, not sure if I even get it.) That's part of the reason I benefited from therapy in the first place--I place a lot of my self-worth and self-esteem as being dependent on men. Not cool. Also, it's turning out to be pretty inconvenient. :)
