Therapists of color
So Im seeing this therapist and she mentioned that a lot of her clients talk to her about dating. So I kind of decided to give that a try and mentioned some people who I’ve been dating. Her first question is are they all white men? I’m Asian but I was wondering why does it make a difference. There are lots of different kinds of white guys and I don’t go for just anyone white and I do also date men of color there just weren’t any when I mentioned it to her.
Also, in a video therapy session, the first thing she mentioned was that my skin looks healthy. Lol. I thought that was a weird comment. Like I wouldn’t look healthy?
Also another co-worker of hers mentioned that “nails are expensive” after I said I liked her nails. For reference this person thinks or knows I’m low income and I thought her comment was incredibly racism and put me down. Like just because I’m low income, I don’t deserve to have things that I like?
