Search Results: seeing a therapist

In all honesty, I absolutely cannot stand dealing with a man who is overly sensitive and overly emotional. Generally, I don’t like dealing with people who have that personality trait at all, but when it’s a man it especially gets on my nerves. I don’t mean to sound harsh but I am a grown adult and having to consistently coddle another grown adult is so annoying particularly if we’re trying to get sh*t done. I just feel like once you pass a certain age, you should have a larger emotional capacity and even if you don’t, others shouldn’t have to commit excessive energy, effort, and time trying to aid you in the fact that you can’t seem to get your sh*t together. Don’t get me wrong! I am all for being someone’s free therapist and helping people work through their problems. Yet if it’s to a point where there are problems EVERY SINGLE DAY simply because of their personality and inability to suck it up and take their emotions out of certain situations: I have little to zero tolerance.

If there’s a man in my life who fits this description, I am immediately turned off and I tend to start viewing him more as a little brother and not as a grown a** man who should be highly respected. I find it difficult to view these types of men with honor, seeing as they adopt the behavior of children and teenagers -_- Is it just me? Ladies, do you agree? What’s the best way to deal with these types of men?

I know this might not be what you were expecting, I do not want to sleep with my therapist and no I am not in *love* with him (not in a romantic way at least).

No I very much have a father complex and he I look up to as a father, I have had for the past few months almost every night in succession had some sort of dream about him I really can't recall much but it involves him and tends to be a nightmare and then he comes in and rescues me and as before it would just be nightmares with me waking up in a panic and insanely sweaty so in an odd way my sleep has improved... but being away from him is truly heart wrenching sometimes and I can't even begin to explain to you the almost grudge like feeling I hold to his very own newborn daughter because she gets to be "his" I actually have a very strong desire to call him dad (Before anyone is like grow up I don't have my father in my life really I only see him once a month and I am 13 it isn't that strange and yes I have a big vocabulary fight me) I am not seeing him currently (complications with insurance so bleh) but I am hoping in the future to tell him but I need others opinions.
