LOL, you're being observed and analyzed all the time whether or not you're with a psychologist! It's what people do, observe and analyze. Pretty much every single conversation anybody ever has about relationships spells that out, loud and clear!
Of course, no doubt about it, we do it unconsciously... LOL, we as humans have to take in a lot of data in short amounts of time so, I do get what you're saying... My only compliant would be that I think the psychologist would be more apt to do it as it's part of their job and there might be a sense of them assuming they "knowing better" because they are psychologist.... I just meant that dynamic might get tiresome......
This is a rather fascinating list to me, because it's so wildly diverse.
Even psychologists (social scientists) and psychiatrists (medical doctors) are two very different things. Saying "psychologists/psychiatrists" makes about as much sense as saying "sociologists/proctologists."
"Teachers" cuts a very broad swath on its own, too. That could be anything from yoga instructors to reading specialists to ESL teachers to music educators to special ed to physics professors. That eliminates a very large portion of the dating pool, particularly if you date women.
Then you throw in things as divergent as cops and bartenders, and you've completely lost me. I'd love to hear your reasoning for each of these-- especially massage therapists. A massage therapist sounds like a perfect partner to me, particularly if she likes to practice at home.
One of my buddies dated a massage therapist in NYC. She was a kook! I named my dog after her about 5 years later. He was pissed...until he met the dog.
No. Because I've known two psychologists who were pleasant, likable people, but I would never want to date one. One was actually a friend and he lived his profession around the clock. He "analyzed" people all the time outside of work, even me. Nope. No thank you.
The other one was just too intense and he, too, had ways of analyzing people. He often raced in regattas, and most of his entertainment as the boat master was observing how the others got along and worked together. I also suspect he is alcoholic. Again, nope.
of course I would. I would test all my crazy ideas and questions on to her. Actually, I would probably make her a better psychologist with all the deep and analytical thinking regarding social dynamics that I do.
Probably the fact that they are rubbing on other men all day. Pretty good reason
What a bizarre mindset. Therapeutic massage isn't sexual. That makes about as much sense as not wanting to date a physician because they see other people's genitals.
