My friends tell me it's been nice to watch me change lately. I had money and did business for years but this time around, I actually started using said money. And got a bit of an attitude. And that has a reason.
A while back I was one of the mods at a therapy subreddit, one of the more open ones where people usually came to complain about bad therapists. I have Aspergers, for better or worse, so I've got my fair share of shit therapy.
Every therapist, psychologist, psychiatrist or counselor ever chose the same hill to die on: I look and speak like a ditz, because of Aspergers, and I am an attractive woman, so they'd instantly order me to stop with my business bullshit (which is probably a lie anyway because look at me), find a man, get married and be happy ever after, and nothing would make them reconsider.
I will never get married. I will never even date and I will never have close intimate friends because I am immigrant, I can't randomly be a cunt spicy dynamic modern woman to people, there's a lot of money on me and I have no family, all of which combined means that even people who are generally decent will often have their shot at abusing me, because opportunity makes the offender.
Therapists and related professionals claim that relationships are somehow superior to career, money, art and such - even if the relationships are quite shallow. Specifically, this blog is a knee-jerk reaction on a therapy reel that explained that wounded women live the life of coping mechanisms, such as work and hobbies, instead of doing the real thing, which is a heterosexual, traditional relationship. That basically, work is a coping mechanism for people who cannot maintain romantic relationships.
Meanwhile, most existing romantic relationships on this planet are a coping mechanism for people who cannot make enough money.
IMO, career and relationship are equivalent as life choices. You can do either with integrity or as a cope.
