I already mentioned on here that I actually started to see one fairly recently, and my attitude towards women is based on first hand experiences and/or observations. A couple weeks ago I asked out a girl I had been talking to for a few weeks, I had asked her out twice prior to that and each time she would have a legitimate reason why she couldn't do something on that particular day but would then say that she liked the date idea I presented. Anyway, after the 3rd time she said something like "I don't need a man in my life"......I'll let you as a male decide how insulting that is lol.
Nah man, I think you're misunderstanding me. You don't need to simply see a therapist.
You need to actively bring up how you feel about women to this therapist. They can only discuss what you bring up. It may not seem like an issue to you, and you may feel that these opinions are logical, but I assure you with the best intentions: you need help here.
Bring up this conversation, and this girl to the therapist.
What the girl you mentioned said is not insulting, and the pattern of not being able to meet despite liking your idea suggests something.
She was trying to be nice to you. But she isn't interested. She may like the date idea, but she is trying to hint that she is not interested in you. And that's totally fine. She has that right, and there are tons of fish in the sea.
The truth is, as I learned from being bi and being approached by men, being the reject-or sucks a lot, too.
I remember feeling once that women were so lucky that men were culturally expected to make the first move, but let me tell you that once you're on the other side of it... you feel
bad. You don't want to hurt their feelings, so you feign interest in the
future but dismiss them for now. It makes the guy feel like he can try again later.
It gets the girl/rejecting guy out of the situation without hurting feelings...but sometimes it doesn't convey properly that they aren't interested in ever having that date.
