he tried to go to his therapist... his therapist just looked frightened of him and told him he needed to go to a psychiatrist. -_-
Did he tell you this?
Did anyone go with him and witness the reaction?
He thought that s/he looked 'frightened', but was s/he frightened or did he just think this?
Or is that what he wanted or expected???
It sounds a bit worrying, though, to me.
It's unusual for a therapist to look frightened of a client.
They are used to all sorts of things.
One wonders what on earth he could have said or done to make a therapist respond like this.
What caused him to go in the first place?
Have there been problems in the past?
Has he ever exhibited frightening behaviour, that might explain the above comment?
I would have thought, perhaps, a psychologist rather than a psychiatrist?
Why would a psychiatrist have been recommended?
I just don't know what to say.
He has told you that he had an obsession with a woman in the past; that he is incapable of loving anyone but himself; that his counsellor was afraid of him.
Though his behaviour towards you sounds lovely, his words make alarm bells ring.
