I had mentioned that my girlfriend had a rough go of it before we
were going out but I was not really sure how bad it was. She was
evidently having a lot of trouble coping and her parents took her to
see a psychologist. The problem with that was that she told her
psychologist about me and her doctor told my girlfriend that it was
probably not a good idea to have a boyfriend. She didn't tell me this
for a while and she was just growing more distant and standoffish. I
was concerned that she was mad at me or something so I asked her over
and over what was wrong and she wouldn't tell me. I would ask how her
counseling was going and she would just say it was fine. We hung out
less and less and she started avoiding me pretty obviously then. She
finally told me that she was avoiding me because she had told her
doctor that she was still going out with me and she had gotten in
trouble but she didn't want to break up with me but she didn't want
to get into trouble again so she was conflicted and really sad. We
were still going out when the school year ended but we only saw each
other once or twice a week for the summer and never really were
together again. Curse that stupid pseudo-science.
