Sorry I'm joining in a little late here! Susan, I think that just isn't right that your T is cking out your chest even if it is an innate manlike tendency! All those little nonverbal cues are important in therapy. I think he owes you an apology...tho if I were in your shoes I don't think I would have the guts to talk to him about it in the first place. Ugh! Therapy can be so hard.
My T (a woman about 10 years older than me) has given me the more global kinds of compliments and has even complimented me on my hair and my pants. But one time I complimented her on her earrings and she got totally distracted and filled out my receipt incorrectly. I thought that was really cute! Then again she knows about my transference feelings, so she was probably freaked out by my attention! Oh well.
I thought that was really funny someone earlier said they try to look cute when they go to therapy on Thursdays! I do the same thing! LOL!
