As for the intrusive thoughts, it depends what kinds. Since you put this in the romantic subforum, I assume the thoughts have that nature? I never had many romantic/sexual thoughts about my Ts but when I did occasionally, I would not fight them and actually just indulge in the fantasies and thought about their meaning. Mine were very clear, explicit transference fantasies and did not show anything I had not known already. They did not hurt anyone and typically came and dissipated quickly. Negative/disturbing/painful thoughts would be a very different issue.

Even he admitted he'd "dangled a carrot and snatched it away". I doubt recall what he said afterwards though, I was in a stuck place by then. Thoughts range from just being with him in the room to more "physical"ones. They have stopped now though, its relieving but odd if you know what I mean?
