Here's a funny story. I have a friend who's very neurotic and bitter about the fact that she doesn't get as much attention as she once did from strange men (nevermind that she complained incessantly about those attentions when they were forthcoming.) She was in analysis, and this is one of the subjects they talked about. Her formulation was the silly Men Are Evil one. Her shrink's approach was to deny everything, such as that if she at 50 and her hubby at 50 got divorced, he would have an advantage over her when they sought new mates. Absurd, but that was his position. She is beginning to buy this line, when she runs into her shrink in the grocery store. He is shopping with his daughter, whom she knew to be home from college. Well, unfortunately, though, when she approached them, curious to meet her shrink's daughter, she learned that... yes... it was his wife. She went to him for one more session, during which he explained that he had married this girl who was, like, 25 years younger than he in spite of her unfortunate youth because she had an "old soul." A true story.
