If I were a therapist and I were a man - most of my clients would be women. How would I feel about almost all my clients coming and professing their liking for me and attraction to me? Espeically if I am in a happy marriage and am commited to my wife?
I think I would feel awful. Life would be so much stressful - becuase you have to listen to intimate details of so many women and participate in a virtual intimate relationship with all of them.. I would just so totally hate it.. Hour after hour, one woman after another coming and telling all the intimate details of her life, and telling me they like me.. I would retire from practice within a month.
Even if I am not in a marriage, I would still feel really bad about being perceived as the most important person in their lives by so many women at the same time. I would really really feel horrible in that position. I would never ever beocme a therapist myself.
