I am assuming you are a medical doctor, and I know what assuming can do.
Physicians take oaths, Lawyers take oaths, Accountants take oaths. Even politicians take oaths and we know where that has taken us.
People break oaths all the time, jeopardizing their livelihoods.
I agree with your comment, doctors have heard it all. I am not unique. I am not afraid of what others might think. I am not afraid others might find out. Thinking back, I was afraid at being outed at a time in my life. I questioned my own sexuality. Therapy and speaking about fears has been refreshing.
I was was afraid of being totally open to my innermost feelings. Therapy has allowed me to explain my feelings. I was afraid my therapist was a voyeur into my mind. She asked my thoughts during sexual acts. She brought out thoughts I wasn’t sure I had. By bringing up my pleasure factors it has brought even more pleasure to my future relationships. Talking about thoughts during sex is cathartic for me.
Mike doesn’t agree with all I say. His trust in others is not solid. He says I am naive and too trusting. We don’t have a trust problem between us. He shares his feelings and what I feel is his deep thoughts. Questions my therapist asks, I ask of him. Me being a voyeur into his mind is very exciting, even more than watching physically. I was happy that he said he doesn’t think about sex with me while having sex with others. He was truthful.
Wow I can’t believe I just opened up on a forum.
