First I would like to define that little voice as that feeling of run when our new date just looked at another woman and said hot. Not the next voice that tells us but he is hot and nice, maybe he is nervous. The little voice is that feeling of wow this guy is really special, not the next voice that says but you felt your ex was really special and see what happened there...I believe we call that baggage.

So why do we ignore the little voice and listen to our rationalization or baggage. What are your stories looking back at past relationships?

Yup, therapy time folks. Who wants to lay on my couch? Look, I brought a plant in too.

I'd like to understand this better too... I mean I know I have my hang-ups just like anyone, and I wish I could take my own advice and look at each new experience as something fresh, rather than well, "this is familiar..."

Most of the time when I react to something I stop to consider why I reacted to something. Like I can't stand stupid people, stupid people being defined as someone who thinks they know more than they do regardless of intelligence, so when I am around stupid people I have to insert the same words and inflections on to someone else I know in my mind. That way I have a better idea if I am reacting to their stupidity or their actual words.

I once had to go through every person I held in high regard before I accepted that it was not the words but the person that was ticking me off.

I think that violates some principle somewhere, at the least I don't think Troy will be amused.

I am leaving for a few hours, feel free to see if you can find someone else to meet you on the couch so long as you clean up when you are done.

You forgot the box of kleenex.

Some psychiatrist YOU turned out to be.

But did she forget the ginkgo extract? It's extract of the ginkgo, and it makes your skin real slick so that any liquid will roll right off you, be it water, or lemon juice, or urine.
