Self-Esteem Advice

A man walked into a therapist's office looking very depressed:

- Doc, you've got to help me. I can't go on like this.

- What's the problem? - the doctor inquired.

- Well, I'm 35 years old and I still have no luck with the ladies. No matter how hard I try, I just seem to scare them away.

- My friend, this is not a serious problem. You just need to work on your self-esteem. Each morning, I want you to get up and run to the bathroom mirror. Tell yourself that you are a good person, a fun person, and an attractive person. But say it with real conviction. Within a week you'll have women buzzing all around you.

The man seemed content with this advice and walked out of the office a bit excited. Three weeks later he returned with the same downtrodden expression on his face:

- Did my advice not work? - asked the doctor.

- It worked alright. For the past several weeks I've enjoyed some of the best moments in my life with the most fabulous looking women.

- So, what's your problem?

- I don't have a problem, - the man replied.

- My wife does.
