I had never put much stock in it—it was only a few times, I’m an adult now, I don’t have an interest in being a victim. However, the real issue for me journal wasn’t the occasional crossing of the line journal physically. The real issue was the constant crossing of the line emotionally. Mom had a crappy journal marriage, she was frequently depressed, she needed someone to confide in, she chose me. Me having problems with romantic relationships today has something to do with being a de facto husband/boyfriend/partner at age 10 and on up, in a completely fucked up dynamic. Today I deal with mixed signals and short circuits when I try to be a real husband/boyfriend/partner with some really great potential partners. I can’t say this holds true for TGS —but he may need to understand the emotional environment that made the one physical event happen... and that could be why his therapist is pushing. Stand In I’m a therapist and my second opinion is that The Good Son does not have to confront his mother, period, ever.
