Thanks for the responses guys, made me feel more justified in what I was feeling. I'm scared that I'm so messed up that no therapist will fit me. This is the 3rd one I've tried out.

I went to some event with my friend Friday evening, and her intentions backfired. I was too insecure about wearing my sweater (which is the only sweater I have atm) that I just went in a t-shirt and was freezing while we were outside. My friend even offered his jacket throughout it.

Not very invested. The first suspicion for me was when I emailed her some questions, one of which was "do you see a therapist", and she never answered me on that. Now this. I'm going to hesitantly give her the benefit of the doubt, keyword being hesitantly. I'll think I'll look for someone else if something else doesn't sit well.

I responded pretty much how I typed it out in the original post. I said that "yeah it does feel good to dress nice, but how long does that feeling even last". Not sure if you meant something more specific by this question.

I think I'm going to dress real nice for the next one just to see her reaction and show her that it doesn't matter, lol.
