[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Brother starting dating a new girl and within the first few weeks, [b]she said that she needed to discuss her feelings with her therapist[/b]. She is on some meds and sees a therapist. She also [b]seems to have a lot of issues and baggage.[/b]  She is mid 30s. DH and I think these are all bad signs and think brother should move on.

Would you think someone on meds and seeing a therapist regularly would be a red flag?

I feel like it should be all fun and good times in the beginning.[/quote]

Seeing a therapist and taking meds aren’t necessarily a problem, but the highlighted items are problems.  She sounds abnormally dependent on a therapist to define her feelings.   Not sure what the “issues and baggage” is, but agree that if someone leads with their issues and baggage at the beginning of dating, it’s only further downhill from there.  Having kids requires focus, selflessness and maturity.  I would want my partner to have those qualities to ensure the kids have the support they need.  [/quote]
