I usually don’t defend Howard Stern, but I have to say Howard Stern has been ripped off! A couple of weeks ago a saw a story in the New York Post about how Stern is paranoid of COVID and his poor wife also has to suffer and can’t enjoy the New York nightlife. This brought me back of when I was a fan of Stern. Stern has been seeing therapists for decades! And his behavior has got worse! Thousands of dollars and thousands of hours down the toilet! Stern has millions of dollars, a trophy wife and reached the top of his game in his field. And he needs therapy!? It’s his personality. His drive to succeed. His cheapness, his poor leadership, his talent. All him.
As for me,
I remembered all the counselors that myself, and my ex went to see to live happily ever after. And most of them are full of shit. These people need to keep the insurance premiums coming in! So they need you to keep coming in! Some providers don’t even accept insurance! I went to an anger management counselor twice. She did not accept insurance. $80 a session. Needless to say since divorce I am a lot less angry! Another time, I went to see one old timer that was in his 80’s. He kept trying to get into my sex life. I said that I didn’t have one since I was married to my wife! I should have known this guy was a problem because he was on wife number 2! I saw another counselor. Everything was my fault and I needed to do this, that and the other thing. And my wife would come in and shit on me some more. My ex-wife took zero responsibility for our problems. I went to another counselor for marriage and relationship advice and this lady reminded me of Mindy Cohen. She recently moved to DC and was never married and had a hard time trying to meet a man!
Then there is Jean. She was in a class all by here self. Supposedly she was a marriage and family counselor. She was an older woman. She didn’t have any pictures of her family anywhere. She never mentioned her husband or her kids. I was convinced she was a lesbian. And of course it was all my fault! The moment that took the cake was when my ex told Jean that I called the kids “fucking assholes.” I did. Then Jean started crying her eyes out! Then Jean said my parents were abusive! No; my parents were good parents! And that was the end of Jean. Another counselor, another stretch of paying the co-pays. You see; none of them will say: “You know; I think we reached the end of the road. In my professional opinion, you no longer need counseling.” No; they don’t say that. They need to keep the money rolling in!
There were a select few that did help me and my family members. One counselor told my ex the painful truth. I loved her immediately and my ex hated her, and we only saw her once. I went to see another by myself and went down my laundry list of problems as well as my “honey do list” and he said: “Dude when do you have time for yourself?” And of course the facility no longer took our insurance anymore. Another counselor, the same list and the counselor said: Your wife is the textbook definition of co-dependent. She went through the definition and I said: “That fits her to a ‘T.’” I was sick of throwing money down the drain so I stopped seeing counselors.
Today; I am much, much happier than I was a year ago! I still have no money, owe a shitload of money to a shitload of people, drive an old car, and live in a room in a house that you would see in Breaking Bad when they started cooking, and constantly get shit from a woman who get 50% of my income. But; its worth it! I can drink beer when I want to, meet girls (if I can), and do what I want when I want! I now get invited to functions and meet some really beautiful people, like the lovely Danila Rodrigues. I can have wallpapers of whoever or whatever I want on my cellular phone including the lovely Danila Rodrigues! And it pisses my ex-wife off! Now: I drink less, and workout more starting to look less like the Kool-Aid Man which also pisses my ex-wife off!
There are people who do need professional help. These are the people who went through traumatic events (PTSD, loss of a family member, abuse, real mental issues, substance abuse etc.). If you need professional help, get it! But; if your wife won’t sleep with you and spends your money, get a new wife. Or your father yells you to get a haircut, get a job and move out even though your 52 years old; then move out!
