Betty, what's the danger in letting me matter to you?
I am not sure. It feels scary, like I'll need you too much. I'm not sure you'll be there for me. I'm going to have to leave California in a year, remember?"
A year's a long time. So you avoid me now because you won't always have me?
I know it doesn't make sense. But I do the same thing with California. I like New York and I don't want to like California. I'm afraid that, if I form friends here and start to like it, I might not want to leave. The other thing is that I start to feel "Why bother?" I'm here for such a short time. Who wants temporary friendships?
The problem with that attitude is you end up with an unpeopled life. Maybe that's part of the reason you feel empty inside. One way or another, every relationship must end. Ther... (查看原文)
I DO NOT LIKE to work with patients who are in love. Perhaps it is because of envy——I, too, crave enchantment. Perhaps it is because love and psychotherapy are fundamentally incompatible.

(5.26-5.29)不喜欢作者的所谓坦诚…很多地方都很奇怪,对年长女性的偏见,对胖女士明晃晃的厌恶,对美丽女性的垂涎(而这些被审视的女性有的还有过被性侵的遭遇)…不知道他的女患者看到会作何感想…亚隆在后记里还自以为傲,认为最后拥抱了贝蒂似乎就意味着自己真的跟偏见和解了,然而他拥抱的只是那个丰腴美丽的贝蒂,并不是那个为肥胖所困扰的贝蒂…😇
