My opinion is, unless he has an actual stick up his butt, you try to make it work. Cuz one pdoc I tried, his office was FULL of sticks - stick lamps, stick rocking chairs, stick picture frames, all kindsa stick junk - and I swear there was one in his arse. so no, I didn't "stick" around after that first session...!

But it took me a while to REALLY like my current guy. it's more like an arranged marriage. I decided he was my last chance for happiness and I could learn to love him eventually. I wouldn't give myself an out this time. I had to make it work. I swore this would be my last t. And philosophically he really suited me.
