Dear KayCee:

It occurred to me that you might have felt embarrassed after reading my last post to you and that you may not reply to me because of that- in case this is true, I wanted to clarify that my intention was not to cause you to feel shame. My intention, as often is the case in my posts to members, is to direct the member’s attention to possibilities that may increase understanding. Improved understanding is part of improved mental health.

A possibility may be (and it may be not) that you are attracted to Tim, or that you want to be his girlfriend. If this is true, there is nothing wrong with you feeling this way or wanting to be his girlfriend. But acknowledging this to yourself (again, if it is true) will help you understand your situation better.
