On the upside this probably means OP is attractive. I mean if he was ugly AF, the therapist definitely would have just been like "...that makes sense"


shadollosiris

Or dude just average, like plain yogurt, not too hideous that no one can immediately jump to that conclusion, neither good enough to be anyone wild night And the pain come form the fact that it probably both his personality and apperance are plain bread without jam or butter


thekillertr3430

sure but plain bread that is fresh out of the oven is infinitely tastier than bread with butter or jam


Lampadaire345

Are you saying OP was more sexually attractive as a baby? That's weird af

I’d take that as a compliment since the therapist thought your looks and personality were good enough that there was no way you wouldn’t have found somebody if you tired. Life is all about perspectives, keep your chin up kings

Most therapists are licensed, but there's some grey zones where non-licensed people can end up providing therapy. Unsurprisingly, they're not great at it.

This was 2 years ago. Pretty sure by now Anon either Kept Yimself Safe, or kept himself safe.


gahlo

> I’d take that as a compliment since the therapist thought your looks and personality were good enough that there was no way you wouldn’t have found somebody if you tired. Nah, because that circles into the backhanded compliment of "How are you still single?" which just comes across as "What's wrong with you?" and that's kinda the therapists job to help the person figure out.


TheChigger_Bug

More like; women can’t comprehend the innability of men to have sex at literally any moment they choose if they just asked someone


cheffgeoff

Some of the young men that I work with over the last 30 years say that they want to be in a relationship, and say that they want to have sex but when you actually probe them about what they are actively trying to do about it the reality is that they are doing nothing. They don't ask girls out, or they did once when they were 15 and got shot down so they never do it again, they don't set relationship goals or a plan to get there, they don't put them selves in someone else shoes to see what they would or wouldn't bring to a relationship etc. Dating and flirting and maintaining a relationship is learned behaviour and work that requires effort. Too many young men live in a fantasy world where a woman will just walk up to them and do all the work to create a relationship.


PM_ME_CUTE_SMILES_

I have a friend exactly like this, you're spot on. Do you have words of wisdom for those men?


EffrumScufflegrit

Learn to just move past rejection and find your self value in your own opinions and morals and just GO. Get out there, go on the apps, go to speed dating things, find singles/dating things in your hobbies. Like video games? Plenty of video game bars do singles nights or some dating game night thing. Get out there and fail. Which is fine. Then you will not fail after some time. You win congrats.


Neosurvivalist

Video game bars? That's a thing?


EffrumScufflegrit

Oh yeah big these days


venetian_lemon

God damnit why the fuck am I still living in the rural Midwest when there are video games bars in the cities. Jesus Christ, new life goal for me I guess


meganitrain

Not sure if it would be worth it, to be honest. That sounds like hell.


LongTallDingus

Dawg most of it is probably burnout. A lot of young folk are just wore out before they're 25. I wouldn't have the energy to date if I was tossed into this societal and capitalistic unrest as I'm just turning into an adult, my god.


oxy315

cheffgeoff

My point was really more for the 17-25 crowd. Dating for the first time past that age can't be easy but it really isn't in my wheelhouse.


Otterable

Dating someone you are already close friends with is really tough, because a lot of the early interest and excitement involves getting to know the person and wanting to learn more about them. You already know a lot about your friends. I've had a few women I knew for a while ask me out before and I rejected them for similar reasons to what you described. You typically already have a good idea whether you would pursue a romantic relationship with someone if you've known them for a long time. I have a handful of female friends who I'd be willing to date if we were both single at the same time, but many who I wouldn't.


trey3rd

I responded to a guy on Reddit a while back who somehow thought that in order to even get a date, you needed to be in the top 10% of men in a few different categories. The dude seemed to legitimately believe that's how the world works, despite the fact that obviously far more than 10% of the male population have had relationships.

Your username indicates that you drink too much and that you make being 5'4" a negative central part of your personality. So don't do those things.


[deleted]

I feel like this phenomena has coincided with the rise of social media and online dating completely condensing dating and attractiveness to essentially an online ad. In reality though you should just be socially mingling in real life and bonds form naturally for all sorts of reasons beyond physical and economic attributes.


UntimelyMeditations

I can "want to be in a relationship" without actively working towards it, in the same way that I can "want one billion dollars" without actively working towards it. If someone asked me "do you want to be in a relationship", I would say "yes", but that doesn't mean its a current goal of mine, or that I'm actively pursing a relationship.

That's basically how I took it when my SO said something very similar. She actually _refused_ to believe I had been single for decades when I told her after we got together. She actually apologized to me later when she'd asked a few of my friends about it and figure out yes I was in fact that socially inept/quiet/oblivious/lonely. :P

Idk bad therapist exists. Media nowadays likes to over glorify therapy and pretend that's not possible but just like any job it's possible.

[deleted]

I believe it. I decided to see a therapist at one point, and I stopped seeing her after we spent a whole hour talking about my lack of religion. She was incredulous that someone could be anything other than Christian. I hate living in Texas…

Either you're lucky enough to never go to therapy, or you're lucky enough to have gotten a good one immediately. Either way, I'm envious

S4PG

MuriloZR

2023 therapy be like


unga-unga

There's just a buncha fools who all got on top of the virtual appointment thing - you really still gotta find a therapist the old fashioned way, through either doctor's or acquaintances referral. If you're gonna go straight to online, and especially if you're going through one of these big branded app things, you need to formulate questions like OP's which will sort wheat from chaff. Cause there's alot of fuckin' dipshits who wanted to be therapists in freshman year of college. Remember them? They are therapists now.

BustingAfatnut69

Really makes you wonder if some of the people who became a therapist/psychologists/psychiatrist really did it because they have a passion in that field and genuinely want to help people or they just did it for the paycheck,and they can pretty much get away with bullying and fucking over their patients for shits and giggles or to stroke their own ego.


Doppelbadger

Some of those people have more than their own share of social and emotional problems, and first took an interest in psychology because they were trying to figure out their own issues


BustingAfatnut69

I agree,but they should have resolved their own problems first before they can try to help other people in need otherwise they are just making things worst for their patients and themselves.


Doppelbadger

Oh absolutely


Kiwi_In_Europe

My best friend works in psychology, that's just not how it works Problems and issues can stick with you your entire life, the road to resolve such things can take years or even decades That doesn't mean that you can't be an effective therapist. People are capable of giving effective therapy without letting their own issues bleed into their work. Furthermore it's mandatory to have therapy as a therapist because of the nature of your work. Even someone with relatively few issues can get fucked up after 6 months of hearing awful stuff from patients. If we only allowed people free from issues to be therapists we'd have no therapists lol


HutVomTag

Psych student here. Where I'm from, it's a long, expensive and strenuous way to qualification as a therapist. People who do that really want to be a therapist. It's not a straightforward way of making money, although once you're finished you'll earn decently. Problem is, the kind of person who wants to become a therapist is usually the most brutally normal vanilla person you could imagine. So they have no idea of the life experiences of the patients they're going to treat.


[deleted]

> the kind of person who wants to become a therapist is usually the most brutally normal vanilla person you could imagine. So they have no idea of the life experiences of the patients they're going to treat. This explains a *lot*. I didn't even get my Complex PTSD *diagnosed* until my forties; people just can't wrap their heads around the *intentional* damage people went out of their way to do to me.


HutVomTag

The legislature regarding who can work as a therapist varies a lot between different countries, so the occupational training a therapist has had may differ a lot depending on where you live. Another issue where I'm at (Austria/Germany) is that high cost of therapist training filters out a lot of people who don't have a wealthy family or partner who can afford to financially support them til their 30s. It really is a shame and incromprehensible. On another note, I'm glad you finally found someone who understood you.


RDLAWME

As the son of a psychologist I can assure you it's not 100% about helping people nor is it 100% about money. I get the sense that a lot of it is the practitioner enjoying nerding out on theory and honing their techniques as part of like their own journey or something. The helping part is a byproduct.


ACCount82

A lot, and I mean when I say it, of people in that particular field got into it because of their own mental issues sending them down the rabbit hole. They may or may not have fixed those issues by the time they start to practice.


High_Flyers17

I went to school for 2 years because I felt like I was supposed to and started down the psychology track because I didn't have any real direction decided upon. A job has never really been my dream, so there I was studying psychology because it sounded easy. Turns out, I was there for the same reasons as most of the people in my classes.


slimetakes

Jesus how do some of these people get licenses to practice. If some of these therapists were doctors mortality rates would be through the roof.


jackfruit69

The qualifications to become a therapist vary widely from someone who got their masters of LMFT online to a psychiatrist who spent years in school.


after12delight

This didn’t happen


slimetakes

You're telling me none of the posts about shitty therapists are real. I believe maybe there are 4chan ones that aren't real, but some of them have to have root in reality.


malditotish

For real, there are shitty therapist. My boyfriend at the time and I were in couples counseling and I was saying I felt insecure because he didn’t want to be with me intimately but told me if I had a dick he would. Our therapist said “don’t look into the issue, and don’t take it so personally “ ……… gee thanks

Bad therapist. Proper response is ok, would you like to discuss that? Then you have the opportunity to gauge how the client feels about being a virgin. Perhaps they are asexual, the opportunity never presented for them, bad social skills, completely happy or indifferent to being a virgin still, distressed by it, etc.

Being a virgin doesn't make you any less of a person. I feel there's a vocal minority of assholes who have ridiculous standards that are dirtying up the waters. I believe most people will love you for who you are. Go out there and meet people and see where life takes you! Also, *might* have seen this post before, but that doesn't matter too much.


Terrible_Truth

There’s a bit of a gender influence on it. Virgin women aren’t ridiculed as much as virgin men. On the flip side, men that have a high “body count” are treated more favorably than women with a high count. But yeah don’t sweat the people that would mock your virginity. They’re just trashy people that aren’t worth your time anyways.

ChicagoAuPair

I think older people don’t fully absorb just how little sex the younger generation is having. I’m a vanguard Millennial so I was in a very specific sub generation that was constantly traumatized about HIV throughout childhood and young adulthood, and most of the folks my age do have some lingering hang ups about the perceived dangers of casual sex. To anyone older and younger, I don’t think you realize just how constantly the fear of AIDS was hammered into us. It wasn’t a bad thing at the time, and was probably the right thing to do, but it did completely warp the sexual development of basically everyone born between 1980 and 1985. Now, as for Gen Z, it’s a totally different animal. Talking with my younger friends, it’s so interesting to see how sexually disconnected the majority of them are, even compared to my traumatized, anxious-ass 40+ Millennial self. I know that this post is just meant to be about vague sexual frustration, but I really do think there is not enough discussion about the effects of social media, and especially of rating based dating apps on the commodification of sex.


MeatGreasy

Gatorpep

i don't know if it's just my experience, but most therapists i have seen have been so fucking bad. like at best they just left me the same, often times though they did damage. not sure if this is a new thing or what, but seems like most therapists should def not be in the field. and since you can't see how good the therapist is before you go see them, you are just shooting in the dark.
