As a single person talking about couples counseling makes me feel sick
Why? Because it's presumed everyone as an adult has a romantic partner or a person they feel could be 'the one'. When you don't , stuff about couples trying to save/revive/reboot their relationship feels like a massive kick in the face and puke worthy to read.
I know. I tried to fix my last relationship. My 5 yo daughter still wants me and her mum living back together again. But it will never happen. I was so badly burnt through being made to feel worthless that I've got no desire to have romantic connections and feel I've made myself become asexually injured and can't recover.
