Mira is just the best. Sweet beautiful no drama just the perfect girl next door.
No drama? I suspect you haven't really been pursuing her all that much.
Girl's a drama volcano waiting to explode. I can hear the ticking time-bomb of her drama just waiting for a future update to detonate in our faces. She's a skittish mess with multiple red flags waving.
What the current consensus on who the therapist is?
My consensus is that she's someone I've been avoiding like the plague. Much like the teacher, I ain't got time for that thirsty milf shit.
If it goes deeper than "Unethical doctor playing games", I'm so not down for the eventual revelation. There's better be a "talk to the hand" option when that scene comes around, because I will be using it.
Well Alexandra is interested in the MC's life in a way that goes beyond just Damon.
My theory has always been that Damon hired her to consult as your therapist. Because you were such an absolute mess after your breakup and Damon seems to have a pathological need to fix other people's problems. So he basically went to her for advice, asked for her help, and has generally been making everything worse because he doesn't really respect boundaries.
Yes, it's incredibly unethical for a doctor to do something like that... but that's why she knows so much and is interested in making the connection with you directly rather than continuing as things have been.
However...
MC has his weird backstory with his mom taking off after her having problems with a mysterious client. I think most people assumed that the moms client was Damon but I think it's just as likely that the mom's client was Alexandra
My theory is that mom's "client" was actually bullshit code for a lesbian affair.
Because of how Penny has been acting (especially how she tries to defend your mom without actually saying anything meaningful), my money was on her being the other woman. But I could easily see Alexandra as the alternative option. Would actually make sense if they met through shared work connections (they're both psychologists), and it gives her motivation to be interested in you (possibly even hoping to heal the rift between you and your mother over the whole mess, or just feeling incredibly guilty because she's literally the cause of your broken home and likely at least some of your psychological issues). It would also explain why she's conflicted, if she's simultaneously seeing you as an attractive young man but also as the son of the woman she had an affair with (and double points there if she and your mom broke up/something happened to your mother, so there's the undertones of you being a "replacement" for her in some way).
I have a very strong feeling that MC's mother is eventually going to come back into the story, explain her side of things, and ask for forgiveness. I'm just hoping that we have a choice to reject her and tell her to get lost, but I have the bad feeling we're going to get forced into reconciliation regardless of what we want in the same way we basically were with the ex. Probably with a heaping helping of everyone telling her she didn't nothing wrong and has nothing to apologize for, which is going to leave a
really sour taste.
