I imagine I probably should tell my therapist about my sexuality eventually. I know it couldn't hurt. Maybe I could discuss how and why I masturbate. Because I'm pretty sure I do it when I'm bored sometimes, and I I can't say I love what that says about me.
But if I have so many reasons to discuss this with my therapist, why don't I? Good question. The answer is that it's too embarassing. I don't like being perceived for my sexuality. It's like how I hate knowing what my voice sounds like on recordings. I'm aware I sound like that, I suppose. But I still feel incredibly uncomfortable when I actually have to process I sound like that. Similar concept here. I know my sexuality. But knowing it and thinking about it...those are significantly different from each other. Thinking about it and having others think about it makes my skin crawl.
I don't ever want to be thought of in that way, and so I just try not to think about it all. And telling my therapist, inviting them to think about all this...it's a dreadful thought. I don't want to have to deal with it.
