Thanks everybody!

Yeah I do tend to get along better with men than women. I think men are just more straightforward. Also, there's generally just more energy between me and them. And yup, I'm one of the ones who would only see a male therapist.

I always thought I'd be more shy in a smaller group, but you know maybe that's not turning out to be the case. Or it could just be the fact that the 2 guys wanted to focus their attention on me. Or something. I don't really understand it.

I felt a lot better about things. I especially liked that one of the guys had the same view of work I do (meaning he's not super career-driven which I'm not and sometimes feel bad about). He'd also been laid off before so the fact that he eventually found work again made me feel better.

I guess that's the whole universality thing that group is supposed to be good at creating (the feeling of being less alone). Last night it actually worked for me.

Of course next week you may get another post from me about how bad group sucks and makes my life miserable. Wait and see. On another universal note, I've noticed that I'm not the only one who sometimes posts contradictory stuff on here. Though I wouldn't name any usernames of course.
