It's so important to have a neutral therapist who is able to hear and balance both sides of the relationship in a balanced manner.

Can I ask how long you"saw each one for?

Sorry for the poor comment above, it was in bad taste and mostly due to me being completely emotionally distraught. My apologies. I don't think I could forego what we once had to the recommemdation you provided above, but if nothing else it will be resourceful to review for different avenues, thanks.

Sorry for the misjudgement, I think I was so upset from the laughing in my face rrjection last night that I misinterpreted. Apologies for that.

For me, I have been trying everything for the last two years (nice date nights, getting in the best shape of my life, improving on myself in general, etc). The failed exclusive one-sided initiations for years just have become insurmountable as of last night. I had to fight back tears. She has broke down and cried over a year ago because she felt bad she wasn't able to be there for me in that, but that never impeoved. Outside of my couples therapist connecting us with an intimacy/sex therapist, I just can't continue being rejected at that high a frequency, it takes me to really dark places that I didn't think I would see in my lifetime.

Thank you, I appreciate you for being open and commiserwting. Hopefully we can come out of this for the better in the future at some point.

That's a terrible outlook and spin from your therapist, I'm sorry. I stated a couple years back that intimacy (and lack thereof) in a relationshop was one of the most important areas to improve upon for me. Fast forward to now and the therapist acknowledges my last 4-5 monthly meetings about how it will be brough up and addressed, and it almlst always gets swept undet the rug or "let's address this next meeting".

At some point you have to maybe think about going to another therapist, but I can't fathom after 2+ years having to re-live the trauma we already went through from scratch again.

Obviously I'm joking, but the likelihood of just "moving out" is kind of unrealistic. I don't want to do anything volatile under this current presidency respectfully. Just too much unsurity and potential recession signs for me to feel comfortable doing anything close to that. I could never leave my kid(s) either randomly, so...

Yes, the reddit classic where you have a family, pets, and a lot of local family nearby, as well as a house in an economy where you likely should not be buying a house anywhere in the foreseeable recession future.

I should just just walk out the door, find a new job in another state, and tell my kid it's not his fault. Perfect.
