It has been two years since I first met my T. Ours was a very weird therapy relationship. He was in my home country and I met him when I was on vacation because of marital problems. We had a few sessions for a month, and then I had to come back to US.
I kept in touch with him through emails and some phone calls and gradually fell for him. Again I went to my home country about 6 months back, and had a few sessions. And we both agreed that I am doing pretty well and decided to terminate. I still write emails to him, and he replies once every few months.
I am still very attached and attracted to him. The feelings for him are so powerful that some times, I don't know how to handle them. There is no way I could ever be with him. and I also know that he isn't attracted to me at all. That I know for sure. But there is always a tinge of hope in the corner of my heart that keeps wanting him.
He knows about my attraction and he has accepted it. I feel really better every now and then about my attachment to him too, but today I am not able to go on anymore. I wish I could write to him telling him how much I am in love with him. But it seems quite stupid especially since he already knows it and would probably think I am pestering him.

Two years is a long time to suffer from feelings like that.
What is best for *you*? To keep the contact with him minimal? Or to maintain email, etc. contact.

Thanks Dinah. It has not been two years from termination. I saw him 6 months back for a few sessions.
He has given me permission to write to him till I get tired of it. I don't know for now whether to write to him every now and then or to keep contact with him minimally.> Two years is a long time to suffer from feelings like that.
