>But I understand my situation perfectly. I will probably end up converting the therapist to my world view unless they're too shallow to understand it

Or, and here is a radical thought, you don’t perfectly understand the complexities of human relationships. Maybe your arrogance and narrow world view lead to a self-fulfilling prophecy that also serves to validate your world view. See a therapist.

Edit: you did it twice - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29106710. That's definitely not cool.

This person doesn't want to see a therapist and as such shouldn't go see one. While I understand the sentiment, a therapists job isn't to change this guy's world view. A therapist is supposed to help people with the problems they want help with. (This person doesn't believe that they have a problem, it seems.)

No one should force him to go and he shouldn’t go if he “knows” he is right and they will be wrong. I definitely went over the line, but I was trying to point out that I thought he likely did have an issue and a therapist would help give him a perspective outside his own.
