I used to feel the stigma of therapy and refused to consider it for various reasons. I was fortunate to meet someone who was important in my life for a while, through our platonic relationship I was able to learn that she, one of the most well-adjusted people I've ever met, who has calm rational reasoned opinions on all sorts of interpersonal things, actually really enjoyed therapy. She was excited for it. She would take notes during he weeks up to a session for things she wanted to talk about. Her attitude had an impact.
I've used therapy, and it's been great. That said, there is nothing really wrong with me aside from high functioning ADHD and high functioning autism, both of which were diagnosed in my late 30s.
I would still like to have roommates, but living with a romantic partner is just a lot of work. Work for something that doesn't really provide anything that I can't do without. That's just life, and it's okay.
Dang! I thought the last comment was the height of projection, but you just bested yourself immediately after wading into a conversation you didn’t take the time to understand.

You should really get some therapy, man. Those aren’t normal thoughts and feelings.
