[1]My friend, the psychotherapist, doesn’t believe people take advice. It’s a provocative admission, and he’s probably right. I once bought a self-help book on how to make relationships work better, even though I wasn’t in a relationship at the time. I was trying to study up, and got about halfway through before realizing, this is not something you can practice on your own.
