This doctor is the best…My former husband & I went to a psychologist..after pouring my heart out ( he was having an emotional affair with a much younger woman) the therapist said “ why haven’t you two fixed this yourselves?” WTF..that was an hour & $$$$$ wasted !!
She might have worded it wrong. Maybe she means, what is it that has made the conflict resolution break down. What is the obstacle you both haven’t been able to hurdle.
That woman is misunderstood… do you know how exhausting it can be to hold 2 people together ?? she has to uplift herself and tend to him.. and if she’s lucky enough to have inner motivation, happiness and inner strength.. she’s the only person carrying both of them.. that’s why she’s crying wolf “I’m done” she doesn’t want it to be really be done, she’s queuing him up, I’m done carrying the 2 of us, it’s a heavy load.. Yoo hoo, hint hint, how bout you step it up and pull your weight here?? He’s harvesting from her , but doesn’t know how to use the relationship irrigation system..
I wonder if what's making him so...unresponsive to her is because he goes straight to "well, she's already angry, there's NOTHING that can be done to fix this" rather than "alright, this isn't working. let me try something else, let me get to the bottom of this." And maybe, by this point, it is too late for them because this cycle has been going on for too long.
The fact that people are in the comments blaming either of them is sad and not the point of the show, it getting people to open up be vulnerable and undertsand the other parties perspective. Not to blame each other. I am glad that rhey came to the conclusion it wasn't working. No point in wasting more time. Wish them luck and move on.
I notice that Ping often puts the blame back on Will and struggles with looking at her feelings. The ability to understand what you are feeling is a key turning point in therapy and she’s not quite there yet.
She was frustrated at him because he wasn’t fulfilling her emotional needs. She’s the “man” in the relationship and having that off balance doesn’t work!
@@Allinmyworld yes for sure! I can unfortunately relate. I was wayyy checked out of the relationship by the time my ex and I broke up and I became angry like she did. Not my proudest moment, but I can understand her
It almost seems as if she is abrasive to get a reaction out of him. She keeps throwing jabs at him, say a lot of hurtful things about him and ask questions to the therapist, but they seem to be meant for him. If she is sitting there and saying she is done, it doesn't seem that way - but then what do I know... just my impression in this situation
I feel sorry for her. It looks like the marriage is coming to an end because he wasn’t committed to working on himself although he knew his pattern all along
Felt so terrible for Ping tbh. Watching the full season, it was obvious that Will was very self centered and selfish. Never wanted to put in any effort. Ping was essentially his way of getting back at his mom imo. The therapist even states at one point she wishes she could put Will into a therapy bootcamp, because he just doesnt care at all about anything that isnt fun. It's alarming. It was clear he had used her and driven her to the edge then played victim. Sad.
I don't know why he doesn't just walk out after being told he's useless. It's time to collect your stuff guy and get a room somewhere. The therapist even hinted that she's just trying to extract concessions.
It seems to me like she got really angry while he was speaking, and was all of a sudden very sure she was "done" not because she genuinely feels that way, but because she was angry.
I've been in this dynamic, it's so sad and so toxic😢 got to work trough it for myself, it's been a rollercoaster but boy did I learn something about myself, myself in relationships and just people and psychology in general🙌🏻✨️🫢
Two long term relationships. One girlfriend, one wife. Each decided we needed to go to couples therapy. Each proactively chose a female therapist. Each was truly only looking for professional validation of her desire to dump me. Could have saved significant amounts of time, money and aggravation and just dumped me up front.
“Ping”?! Really? Meanwhile, she “observing” from her galaxy far, far away … that he’s “closed off”.. poor chap… then again, frankly, he chose to ‘couple’ with a ping .. However, was he always like this … before Pingy… ? But then, when he gets a few words in, saying that perhaps they are over.. she immediately attacks .. her voice roughens even as it goes up .. she takes centre stage, again.. MEGA MOUTH, micro mind.
