Had a nice fwb situation for a few years but that's over now, so against my better judgement I hopped back into the online dating scene; and holy shit there are so many women who straight up say they expect a man to go to therapy.
It's not like I haven't seen this before, but nothing to this degree. I see it all the damn time now.
Therapy might have some worth in cases for people with actual mental issues, but the idea that most people should not only see a therapist but regularly see a therapist is fucking absurd.
Not sure if anyone else has seen the same. It's pretty clear that continual therapy is fully entrenched as a key component of the religion of woke.
The point of therapy is to achieve results where the patient no longer needs a therapist. It should be professional guidance with measured advice towards that goal, but it seems that therapy is now an end not a means, a badge of victimhood with affirmations and headpats from your paid friend.
I understand that the process can take a long time, but the modern therapist seems more than wiiling to be a mercenary shoulder to cry on rather than fulfilling their actual purpose.
So yes, I agree that therapy has shamefully become part of the woke religion.
Yeah, if you don't have a goal that you work towards in therapy it's not proper therapy. And if you need multiple years of therapy to overcome your issues: you're not relationship material. Fix yourself before you burden other people with your shit.
