Lets share my feelings.
I have my home up for sale and it has been on the market of almost 6 months. We have had around 70 showings.
This week we got 2 offers on the same day. One sucked and the other was really good. We asked for highest and best and the sucky one became palitable, and the other staid the same. I picked the higher one, and within 8 hours they withdrew their offer. So I turned to the other offer and they said they would have the counter offer to us by last night. This morning found out they to also backed out.
This roll a coaster ride sucks, and I am very tired of it. I would like a fair offer on my house and get this house closed. Selling a house is one of the most stressful times in someone’s life and this has been going on for 6 months.
Glad I got that off my chest.

They say having a kid, getting divorced, and selling your house are the top three.
Try not to do them all at once.

I can only handle one at a time. The Divorce will never happen. I will say this is bringing my wife, the children, and I much closer together.

In other Penelope Pitstop news, I called a guy to schedule a first appointment yesterday, and we got on the topic of names (I was asking what he prefers). Anyway, we were on the phone for maybe five minutes at most, and at the end he announced me funny in a delighted way that made my eyes widen in terror, because having newly discovered that I’m some sort of femme fatale for Men With Issues, I’m freaked out that my regular me will be problematic in a therapy context.
I had dinner with my best friend last night and she first suggested that I develop some boundaries, but what, I’m not going to be enjoyable to talk to and still somehow do the work? I’ll just sit there flatly to prevent middle-aged male clients from liking me? Then she said I should wear a wedding ring at work to set a visual boundary and then not worry if they develop a little crush. But that seems weird and dishonest to me.
We were rolling over the idea that I could explain that my private caseload is full currently (ex-boyfriend, Tim, popped up in email yesterday morning, probably drunk Wednesday night when he sent them, still don’t feel clear of the hunter yet, and of course ex-husband is still in the picture platonically) and so I’m not currently accepting boyfriends.
It’s funny, but sort of - not. [/quote]
Meh, this won’t be a problem once you start delving into the issues, assuming that you are the professional that I think you are.
Talking about names and talking about horrible life events are 2 very different things, and you will automatically put up the necessary boundaries anyway.
Being fun and being a good therapist aren’t mutually exclusive, right?
[/quote]
If she is their therapist guys will want to bone her.
That is not only not a problem but it is to be expected and it gives her the opportunity to find out how and why and what they actually want to bone, because they will try to turn her into their ideal by projecting unto her massively.
If she wants to do it right there can be no blocking, no shielding, no fucking.
Its dirty work, thats what it is.

Spoken just like that other Austrian.

If she is playing the Austrian game, she better play by the Austrian rules.
Anything else, she is making it up as she goes along.
A therapist who hides from uncomfortable feelings is worthless.

You ever miss that work? I’m betting you were pretty good at it.
The therapist I was seeing for panic and anxiety was a lot of fun, outgoing, very bright and optimistic. Also very effective.
