I've never had problems with having male friends. In fact, I've probably had closer male friends over the years than female ones. There's a different dynamic involved, and one that I guess I find appealing. Not sex, or even flirtation. Just an awareness of differences I guess. Firmness/softness yin/yang. Back in the old days some of them might have been attracted to me, but they never made it an issue. I guess even at my best I wasn't irresistible. ;)
And, Tabitha, could you suggest that he take that therapist plunge? One of my main reasons for seeing a therapist is to protect my family from the worst of my stuff (as I wish my parents had done). That and to maintain my status as a productive member of society. Maybe either therapy or certification that you don't need it should be compulsory upon graduation to adulthood. Sigh.
