> now i feel i can't measure up to him, and the qualities he likes in women, especially the brainiac, and although i'm not a dog, the body type too, cause i've always thought my body is never good enough, though i know it's a pretty nice body.
(((inimitable))) A dating site profile like that is a wish list, and the more detail on it the less likely a "perfect match" is. And often, if by some chance the "perfect match" by those criteria came along, he might find himself revising the list. So you shouldn't feel like you don't measure up, and I think you're aware that in fact you are the sort of person he could be attracted to (otherwise why lament that you met him through therapy rather than otside?).
Which, by the way, doesn't make you "stupid!" At worst it's bad luck. After all, you might have found a romantic relationship wouldn't have worked anyway, and you're actually getting more out of knowing him through therapy!
