to them sexually.
But there are other types of attachments that can be nearly as painful. Not quite as painful though, I must admit.
My therapist is a man, and I'm sure many women would find him attractive. But he's not my physical type. If he had had gold arm hairs curling over his watch and visible from his rolled up sleeves, and crinkly blue eyes, and a lopsided grin, I'd never have gone to see him more than once.
But I have an enormously strong maternal attachment to him. And sometimes it hurts that he doesn't see me as a daughter. :(
