Good point- see your therapist or go to jail is not a good
motivator for intimacy.

Hi Joe,

I'll have to have a look at that study. I know FAP talk about
something similar
for those with a borderline diagnosis.

regarding how open they are to the intimacy? well how long is
a piece of string?
i think its really difficult to answer that as it will vary
from person to
person. you are right in that ability to form and maintain
adult relationships
is often a significant risk predictor. So Im afraid I cant
feedback on that
just yet but I will. remind me in 6 months time if i havent.
the couple i have
at the minute is a slow build. i think it will be slower as
people are
compelled to see me by probation order or as part of a
treatment to help secure
their freedom.

probably means taking a slightly different approach, thought
ive not worked out
100% what that might be as yet


best wishes

Aidan
