Shrink asks how I view women

[Prefer Peace to PieceParticipant 10809]

Q: How do you view women?
A: As infrequently as possible.

In my experience with shrinks/therapists/counselors, they just try to get you to buy into a delusion rather than to face to truth and deal with it.

Having a useless degree in psychology, I’d have thought the correct answer for a shrink would have been being single is healthy if you are happy that way, not that you have a problem to over come.

Would have asked him back….

“Are you more concerned about “how I view them” ( perception ) or the way they actually ARE ( reality ). That’s got nothing to do with ME”.

“It is going to be very difficult for you to overcome the issues you have with women.”

“A man could have an “issue” with the smell of dog s~~~ too. Doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with HIM. You’re FIRED. ”

His angle is very transparent. It doesn’t work.

Would he consider it a problem – with YOU – if you had said “all women are perfect, beautiful and can do no wrong?”.

He wouldn’t see that an issue or incorrect perception – even though he knows it couldn’t POSSIBLY be true. And that means HE has issues.

I would even bill him for that.

If you keep doing what you've always done... you're gonna keep getting what you always got.

Make sure to find a very skilled one. It’s like a lot of things, through many factors a lot of incompetent people get into positions they have no business being in. The key is you need to find someone that is actually good, and then stick with them.

Same is true for any doctor, mechanic, attorney, CPA, etc. It isn’t necessarily easy to find these people. Sometimes it is only possible by luck, or being very active and social and people just directing you.

I tell the shrink…

That was mistake #1.

Mistake #2 was telling him the truth.

Tell them what they want to hear, answer only the question put to you, and volunteer nothing.

Do not date. Do not impregnate. Do not co-habitate. Above all, do not marry. Reclaim and never again surrender your personal sovereignty.
