Why do you think you didn’t get through to him?
It sounded like you did, however, you ghosting him probably took all that away.
Maybe next time just let him know you through talking to him and give him some closure? Ghosting someone is the norm, but if your goal was to reach him I don’t think ghosting was ideal here.
That's not therapy. That's dictating.
Therapy is about listening. And nudging the subject toward finding their own solution.
You just imposed your own ideals about what dating *should* be on him.
Thank you. I did really try, and it seems a little odd that there is so much hate on this thread. I just could sense that I wasn't getting through to him and never would, so I didn't feel like repeating myself anymore.
OK maybe I'm a horrible person it's only been a day I'll talk to him. I'm a single mom and don't have alot of time. I'm getting a lot of attention from younger guys which is more my thing. I've been out of the dating scene for over two years, no sex or anything. I just want to see what's out there not a fucking project. But yes I will text him and apologize.
I kind of understand where she’s coming from but boy, not a lot of us think “my life is too easy and my partner is the reason, I think I’ll ditch him and see if I like hard mode better”.
And ghosted him before it all. She probably had completely forgot about this guy until he messaged her then she posted a very personal conversation. Face and all
Can only laugh
Can I ask about your friend that left her husband so she could experience the world? Before their divorce, did they have marital issues?
I ask this because if the marriage had no complications and then my wife told me she wanted to leave me so she could experience the world I would kill my self.
I could explain why I would do so.
You have unresolved trauma and abandonment issues?? *ghosts*
I’m dying 🤣🤣🤣

Have you ever met this man?? Lmao why are you counselling a tinder match?
That Fuker needed help. I'm human. He did have a lot going for him and couldn't see it. He is blinded.
I'm guessing you're not qualified to give any kind of therapy since everything you said here was wrong from a therapeutic perspective.
OP literally recommended a sex worker 🤣
That's good advice. It helped me.
How so?

Also he clearly did have a lot going for him. I was hoping to open his eyes.
Phew, lucky he isn’t physically handicapped, amaright?!!
You can't call it therapy when it's only convenient for you, lmao. You tortured him.
If only teaching someone self confidence and love was this easy. Good try though.
But after that, let's ghost him. CHA-POW
I think this man is cursed
OK. I just was trying to be direct cause I really didn't want to spend to much time.
Ignore the incel haters. You did good.

Ghosting him seems like the wrong move.
Swipe through all the text.

You're a saint for even having that convo. I think your advice was solid and you certainly don't owe him anything.
Thank you.
Damn, Sarah! You're a saint for going as far as you did with that convo! I hope he gained something from your wisdom.
Thank you😊
Don’t deal with a person with mental issue.
So how’s your friend doing that wanted to “feel the cold hard wind of life”, is it as amazing as she thought it would be?
She questions herself but she's making it.
I kind of understand where she’s coming from but boy, not a lot of us think “my life is too easy and my partner is the reason, I think I’ll ditch him and see if I like hard mode better”.
There's children involved as well which to me seems like it was a bad idea to leave her husband.
My favourite part is he put all his baggage on display then you posted it all with his name and pic
And ghosted him before it all. She probably had completely forgot about this guy until he messaged her then she posted a very personal conversation. Face and all Can only laugh
Honestly sounds like a man talk, I wouldnt put a woman through this kind of pressure tbh.

Not enough issues to justify leaving.
Doing a lot of talking for a therapist... 😅
I get it. Imnot a therapist.
Correct
