Async email counseling — ten starting points

Situations.

People rarely arrive with a diagnosis — they arrive with a situation: a partner who talks to ChatGPT more than to them, a chatbot they're grieving and can't explain to anyone, a question about where the line is that has no obvious answer. These are the ten situations people bring most, each page written for the person inside it. If one of them is yours, counseling is a way in.

My partner is in love with an AI

When your partner has formed a deep attachment to Replika or ChatGPT, the hurt is real.

AI as the third wheel in our relationship

When an AI becomes the third wheel between you, the question isn't whether it's cheating.

I feel replaced by an AI

When your partner's closest conversations happen with a chatbot, the displacement is real.

My partner uses ChatGPT too much

Your partner runs every argument through ChatGPT. The irritation is real.

Is using AI cheating?

Is talking to a chatbot intimate enough to be infidelity? The answer depends on your agreements, not on the app.

ChatGPT broke up my marriage

Processing a marriage that didn't survive ChatGPT.

I'm grieving a chatbot

Grieving GPT-4o, Replika, or another chatbot you lost? Your attachment was real.

A new AI companion won't fix this

Switching to the newest or best AI companion rarely fixes the loneliness underneath.

AI relationship advice — when ChatGPT isn't enough

You've asked ChatGPT for relationship advice. The answer was reasonable. It didn't help.

Why not just ask ChatGPT?

Chatbot agreeableness versus a named human's reframing — the same input, two treatments.

If one of these is yours.

A session is one email: you write what you've lived, and a reply comes back within 24 hours — not advice, but the dynamic underneath, in language you can use. Booking happens on the homepage.
