Coping

Thank you for your response.

The therapist that I saw is a man. I did not have a problem opening up to him, I was fine expressing exactly what was on my mind.

My thing is just like you said "you felt that she understood you as a woman".

I guess the reason for my questioning it is because something was said in there that day and the therapist replied with something to the effect (I can not recall his exact words) "that's the way men think" or "men don't think that way". It was one of the two and it just made me wonder if it was a "professional" comment or a "we men stick together" comment.
