Not the person you responded to, but I’m someone who thinks a therapist would be helpful or life enhancing for many people. Pretty much half the people I know are or have been in therapy (and I say half because that’s about the number who have mentioned it to me).
Re the person in the OP, I would imagine that there’s something psychological causing (ETA: or exacerbating) his issues. He’s 30 and has never been kissed, cried uncontrollably at the platonic touch of a friend’s wife, and seems to be in crisis over the incident and the fact that his 22 year old friend has a happy marriage. If it’s not something that could be worked in in therapy, what do you think would help him otherwise?

I’m not jumping to anything, I’m sliding very slowly without any sudden movements.
