Interesting.. I've never heard of that before. Maybe she was having a bad day then. I don't see her as someone who is going to have countertranference issues with me. That is exactly what it felt like though. She pulled the safety line away and I panicked and scrambled. It was worse because I did't know I was playing with fire so to speak.
