Finding a partner with which you resonate takes a lot of time, which means an insanely high opportunity cost.
The question rather is: even if you consider the real one to be clearly better, is it worth the additional cost (including opportunity cost)? Or phrased in a HN-friendly language: when doing development of some product, why use an expensive Intel or AMD processor when a simple microcontroller does the job much more cheaply?

- aleph_minus_one 2y agoIt's pretty steep to claim that I need counseling when I tell basic economic facts that every economics student learns in the first few months of his academic studies. If you don't like the harsh truth that I wrote: basically every somewhat encompassing textbook about business administration gives hints on what are possible solutions for this problem; lying on some head shrinker's couch is not one of them ... :-)

Millions of people around the world are in satisfying relationships without autistically extrapolating shitty corporate buzzword terms to unrelated scenarios. This reply validates even more my original comment. Maybe not even counseling is worth it in your case. You sound unsalvageable. Maybe institutionalization is a better option.
