Not too crazy about those in the helping professions
I have a confession to make- not only do I do the biology thing, I'm also a practicing psychotherapist. I do both part time. I do some work for the university and also work for an EAP company doing telephonic counseling and mass casualty disaster response- mostly plane crashes. People who work in the helping professions are full of neuroses- I dont want to date one. I am one.

Reminds me of a theory of my uncle's
He said that people take psychology courses because they want to understand their problems. Most people figure themselves out after a course or 2 and do something else. Some people's problems are more complex so they take more courses. And then when they've figured themselves out they say, "What do I do for a degree? Well I have all of these psychology courses..."
This uncle had a PhD in psychology and was a prime example of his own theory.

No, the charitable ones . .

More than a conduit
Although what you say is partly true, I add more value to that charity than it could do on its own, since I'm *not* being paid what I'm worth. In addition, the organization adds value through its economies of scale (and 40 other people on staff whose contributed value is more than what they're paid).

you just like root causes, annoying in a potential female partner for most. So, you need a strong man who can listen to you regale his faults up one side and down the other and go huh? while scratching his nuts with a salad fork. Not immposible, but IT might be a good choice because if it doesnt down the server we probably dont care, which would annoy you except after being chewed on, the guy might just ruffle your bum and say "does that make you feel better?"
Never know, might work.
Actually Rob N doesnt hang out here anymore but he was with similar type lady, think she was psychiatrist candidate as opposed to yours and a nicer couple couldnt be met.

A standard reference dictionary . . .

On the other hand, Ms BioNerd appears to be deeply involved in two separate specialties to which the phrase "no guts, no glory" applies. No wonder engineers go screaming into the night.

Yeah, it's shallow. Sue me:)
...and yes, if that's what characterlogical means, I guess I'd have to say we have a lot of that around here.
OTOH, I do have to wonder about the normative value of the word "maladaptive". I'm not sure that it applies universally to "patterns of inner experience and behaviour that deviate from the [norms of one's cultural milieux]". Sometimes that's actually really healthy.

Most people on this forum work in IT and you have to be fairly contrary to want to study machine logic for a living. And this board seems to attract the particularly contrary. You noticed this yourself.
So, you study guts. Can I watch? Can you provide a running commentary? Am I supposed to be scared of my own mortality or something?
