Dating: Opposed to couples therapy?
I want to start off saying I fully support seeking therapy. I recommend it, even. However, if have just met someone and we are not exclusively dating, couples therapy should not be required. It would be odd and inappropriate. What sort of issues have you uncovered in a three minute, yet to be determined relationship?
I told my friend Vincent that his new love interest may be a little high strung because she wants them to go see her pastor for counseling. Couples counseling. Again, not opposed to seeking therapy, but couples therapy when you’re not a couple? RED FLAG. They only met a few months ago and she has issues with how he communicates already. I guess she is the type to be proactive?
What do you think? Has anyone ever asked you to go to therapy with them? If you had a new relationship and hit rough patch already, would you be willing to work things out with a professional?
Would it bother you if the person you were dating had a therapist or life coach?

ITL, perhaps I have too much glitter on the brain because with the clothes pins all I can envision is clamping down on the nipple then pulling to stretch, or just clamping down and walking away (lol). The clothes pin is clamping down one way or another, NO???

@Ex: Ummmmm, I’ll take a slow smart one over a quick dumb one anyday.
@Leggs: OUCH! Yeah, I guess I can see how it would read that way. No clothes pins used for pain on this girl, please.

The last Caucasian of significance has left the building. By now he should be clearing the parking lot.
I’m out. Thanks for consistently indulging my foolishness. Don’t forget the reason for the season.
PEACE & LOVE.

ITL – LOL! Maybe…waiting to hear. He asked about going to Darwin’s, but I’m not feeling that tonight. There’s a new open mic near my house, so mentioned it to him and he said he would let me know.
Leggs – yes…
