Hello!!! I’m very new and very interested in art therapy and was curious about the general process of schooling. I’m currently a first year psychology major in undergrad, but before I go too far I’m wondering if there are minors or a major change that would be better to become an art therapist. Thanks!

It’s a little more similar to this situation. I moved closer for college and he moved closer for work. But we’re still long distance. Several months ago I did propose a split because I could tell he was getting antsy waiting for me. That was a huge mistake and I don’t ever wanna be without him. I still feel very guilty for that. I know he resents me despite him not really discussing it. I know he wants me but I’m in college and figuring out some of my own shit right now. I want him to be happy despite my selfish feelings in this situation.

I honestly think it is odd to prefer completely bald. It seems kinda gross because adults grow hair. The people who don’t grow any hair are children. So you’re attracted to women who look more like children? Definitely an ick.

Dating is much more than just sex…

EducationalQuote9198

He has repeatedly told me that he wants to marry me. I do want that. Neither one of us wants kids. I do hope to move and get married. It would make me a little sad if he decided to do so with a new partner instead. That being said, it’s understandable if that happens and as long as he’s happy I’m learning to be flexible despite me being an emotional person.

EducationalQuote9198

That makes a lot of sense. I’m also bi but we have discussed that since I have friends and family and am not looking for sex I have no reason to date others. So it would just be him. But maybe eventually it could benefit me

EducationalQuote9198

I do trust him and I truly do not think he has. He was previously living with his family and I had his location so I’m very sure he was not previously.

EducationalQuote9198

This is a good perspective that I’m looking for. I need to realize that this could be a good benefit. Maybe things like sex or hobbies or something I won’t have to do if there’s another woman?

EducationalQuote9198

It was never anything irl thankfully. Just when I was young I was groomed into sending sexual content to different people. My current relationship is nowhere near that.

EducationalQuote9198

The bottom line for me is him. I’m so madly in love with him and I don’t wanna have a life where we aren’t together. He did say he was willing to not be poly but I don’t want to hold him back. I’m just trying to learn techniques about how I can make myself better at allowing it.

EducationalQuote9198

I have a long experience of grooming and my current relationship is a lot different. That being said I am afraid of what you said. I am not waiting until marriage I just thought since we haven’t had many dates in real life yet it’s pretty soon for me.

EducationalQuote9198

I moved for school and he moved to work. Both much closer but sadly still not the same city.

EducationalQuote9198

On my own! Or you and me.

EducationalQuote9198

Hello, thank you so much for your wisdom, would you be open to DM me?

EducationalQuote9198

He can and he has some online. He struggles irl and is a big introvert. With dating apps and things it’s a little easier to find someone romantic/sexual than to find a friendship. Plus he works a lot and at odd hours.

EducationalQuote9198

He doesn’t want to be long distance but with school and work it just happened that way sadly. I personally probably wouldn’t ever think to explore much in this regard but we are trying to do what’s right for each other. It’s just complicated at the moment. Haha

EducationalQuote9198

He is the right person and will wait if I ask him to. I just struggle with guilt because I know how lonely he is. I understand his logic, he’s trying to reassure me not to rush into anything sexual because hypothetically his needs would be met. I just feel guilty and for some reason a little sad.

EducationalQuote9198

I believe this is his way of showing that there’s no pressure in being physical yet.

EducationalQuote9198

Oh shit, I’m so sorry he’s 27M! That’s my fault

EducationalQuote9198

Hi, I’m sorry lol! This isn’t ai I promise. This is my life 😂. I really fucking hate ai trust me.
