She doesn't care if he becomes my boyfriend, she just thinks that the experience of going on a date with someone would help me, because I've never had that type of experience with a guy. Here's the issue... I already have a boyfriend, but he lives in anouther state. So do I sty with him, but still go on a date with someone else. Or do I break up with him while I'm do this?thanksxoxo Reply to this Question

texchik276 is verified as being by the original poster of the questionyes she knows I have a boyfriend...
But it's not suppose to be me cheating on him, like I said, she doesn't want me to find a new boyfriend... and the deffinition of a date is an appointment to meet at a specified time... that doesn't make me cheating on him.
And she's a pshycolgist, not a pshyciatrist... she's not treating me. She's someone for me to talk to.
And I'm not asking if I should take her advice... I know why she wants me to do it, and I know I need to.
I just want to know if I should break up with my boyfriend.
thanks
xoxo

Ask your psychologist why she wants to put you under more stress by forcing you to cheat on your boyfriend?
Sounds like she's just clutching at straws because she's not treating you for anything specific.
Don't do anything you are not comfortable with. Ask why you are seeing a therapist when all she can come up with is "why not get a love life?"
God Luck!! xx

 Does your psychologist know you already have a boyfriend?
If you're willing to do this, your boyfriend will understand your psychological issues and allow you to go out on a date knowing it is just for the experience and nothing more. No doubt he'll find it strange though.
