Irrelevant. Those reactions were elicited by the therapist. Obviously if the therapist had been neutral many of us wouldn't have felt anything toward him or her.

I am a loner. And I am okay with that.

If I wanted to live a life where I deal with the emotions I went through in "therapy" I would at least attempt to live a different lifestyle.

I don't need an intimate relationship with another person. I don't want an intimate relationship with another person. If I enjoyed those emotions perhaps I would be a different person. But I never asked to be turned into a different person. I went to therapy because I wanted help dealing with life issues unrelated to relationships.

The therapist couldn't respect that and ran the same ******** routine she runs on all her patients.

Personally, I am glad the therapy failed. Personally, I'm glad that my conviction to stay away from people, especially women, is now stronger than ever.

My only regret, other than signing up for that therapy, is that I was unable to make the therapist feel the pain I felt. Nothing would have given me more pleasure.
