Just tell him you met someone your own age who actually makes you horny -- unlike him.

Besides the fact you should never date your therapist...

If you want to date your him, you should apologize. And ask for a referral to a new therapist. Actually, you should get that referral no matter what. Any therapist who asks you out should not be anyone's therapist.

Since he was her therapist for a couple of months, he probably should've seen this coming. At least, the simple truth probably wouldn't surprise him. On the other hand, he was an absolute failure as a therapist, so maybe not.

I don't think you stood him up by accident at all . I think your sub-conscious brain did it. Your gut was telling you it was wrong to date your therapist even though you didn't know it

You didn't accidentally stand him up. You forgot for a reason. You should probably ask your therapist to help you sort out why you would forget a date with someone. Oh, wait… Never mind.

Now it's oh no, even though I didn't listen to any of the people on my other "cry for help" thread, I will toss up a fresh one to ask the same people a new question which I won't listen any of their valid replies.

You did it on purpose, because you know deep down that it's never healthy to date a well educated predator, even if he is good looking and twice your age. Good job SDF's conscious ^5
But he's not a predator. He hasn't gone after sex at all, where most guys have tried on the first date. The problem was either he was too boring or too snobbish.

It is not professional to ask out your patients. That is predatory.

Did he say, "listen Shay, I like you, we should go out. But since I feel that way, I can no longer be your therapist, because that would be crossing my professional boundaries for doctors-patients. Here is a referral..."

Since I am sure the answer is no, you are dealing with predatory behavior, no matter how benign he seemed on the date. He has the power and knowledge to emotionally manipulate you.

My point above exactly.

I have no sympathy for this kind of therapist.

Most people don't forget a date. Book another session with a new life coach.
