Perfection From Practice
I have made mention of how the advancements in technology have provided my kind and I with a smorgasbord of methods to carry out our works. From seduction to manipulation the freedom that comes with wifi and a functioning device provides is with a wealth of opportunity. My web can be spread wide over the….well the web. How apt it is that the pioneers of the internet decided on the appellation of world wide web. The electronic blanket which encapsulates this planet is indeed a web. A perilous place which readily ensnares the unwary. From chatrooms, to text messaging, through Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, e-mail and dating sites, the internet has proven to be bountiful in its riches for my kind. Of course, this vast array of different hunting grounds can only be of benefit to the seasoned hunter. You can fill a river with salmon but if you do not know how to fish then you will not catch anything. Of course, I know how to fish, to shoot, to spear and to hunt. My mastering of the tools of manipulation enables me to sniff out my prey in moments and like a lion tracking a bison, drag them to the ground and eat them from behind before they even realise what has happened to them. Have you ever seen the expression on a felled bison or buffalo as a predatory lion gorges on their flesh? It is not pain, it is not frustrated struggle but an almost blissful ignorance to what is actually happening. They seem unaware that they are being devoured. It is so similar for my victims. They smile and purr even as I am taking chunks from them because that is the high level of my skill.
Thus the internet has become my hunting ground and my various manipulative machinations are given a good run out amidst the waiting and willing victims. There is one thing however that always works in this electronic shop window and that is the art of conversation.
My early forays in chatrooms bore fruit so incredibly quickly. Even I was taken aback at how easy it was. So many times I read comments such as
“It is such a lovely change to meet someone who can hold a conversation.”
“You are so charming and interesting, you actually hold a conversation than saying hi babe wanna shag?”
“You are clearly intelligent and interested in me. I am not used to that. So many of the men on here just want a picture of my boobs or want to send me a dick pic, you are not like that.”
Naturally, I was not engaged in conversations with men so I do not know if there is a boorish equivalent amongst the female ranks. Certainly in all my conversations I never came across any lady whose opening gambit was to offer a picture of her genitals. I take the view therefore that it is the male of the species that is letting you down. They are certainly not letting me down. By populating chat rooms and dating sites and trotting out such Neanderthal lines these men are increasing my currency. The fact I can talk about a variety of subjects, ask pertinent and engaging questions and avoid suggesting a bunk up in the first ten mintues meant that I really was the desired exception. The idiots, the perverts and the inarticulate all made me look even better than I already did (yes I know that may be hard to believe!) and thus when I came sashaying into view I was greeted with utter delight by those I interacted with. Even if I had no interest in someone, I was hard pressed not to attract them, by virtue of being able to string sentences together and not engage in demands for instant sexual congress (of course that would come later when I was always pushing on an open door).
Time and time again I heard reports of the pathetic and ill-mannered behaviour of men in these arenas. I expressed dismay and castigated them for it but all the while I celebrated for so long as they continued in this vein it meant all the more eager and willing victims for me. Those weak and pathetic spiders would soon curl up and die for there was only one giant walking through the net. Along came a spider but this one could hold a conversation.

But a lesson in attentiveness nonetheless.
But you are not in all ways a typical VIRGO …
Oddly enough I do not place any faith in astrology ava101. Not that that will come as a surprise to you.
H.G., even if your heart hasn’t softened per say, would you say that you feel even slightly less angry or “evil”?
I understand more.
I can relate to that. Understanding takes a weight off all on its own.
I know you wrote Evil in 2015 along with Manipulated, Escape, and Fuel; I just thought I detected a different tone as I read through your 2016 books. Maybe it is a perception thing. My god, I sound obsessed. Maybe I am. LOL
Hi Sophia, I am content for you to be obsessed.
I am guessing you are a Leo (August), Sagittarius (December), or an Aries (April). 🙂 Wondering what Ava101 is guessing.
I am none of those Sophia.
Hmmm. I would have pegged you as a fire sign. Gemini? Have you noticed I have an incessant need to pick things apart? ha Only interesting things, of course. 🙂
No not Gemini. I do like what you wrote. Feel free to pick away, it is the key to understanding and I applaud that.
You are giggling away that you now have many people reading this wondering what your astrological sign is, aren’t you? I gotta say I get a kick out of it. I am often too open. Capricorn? LOL
Nope.
Alright. I give. 🙁 Ha
Scorpio?? Maybe Libra
(I mistakenly said Leo last comment)
I’m guessing Aquarius. Maybe … *thinks* .. or libra. He is not a virgin. Pisces probably.
🙂
Nope.
Capricorn
Money is important and there very strong willed.
Scorpio would be possible, too.
You most likely are a Scorpio, HG!
I see where your thinking has gone to Matilda but no, I am not.
hmmm, interesting… I would have placed a bet on it… 🙂
Aren’t we through now? You can’t be tauros or cancer?
Nope.
narcsign?
We every single one, unless you say that I said you were NOT virgin.
I’m not a virgin.
Is this a lesson in circular talk, HG?
Ok, from the start: Are you an air sign? Aquarius, libra or Gemini?
No, more a lesson in the perils of auto correct I suspect!
Virgo (in English …)?
Correct.
Wow! The hardworking perfectionist. Every Virgo I know (which isn’t many) have anxiety issues.
Hilarious! :-D… the word we are looking for here is Virgo!
Correct.
No, HG, I’m German, and in German the word for virgin and Virgo is identical!!
Wow. Are you sure? 😉 You can’t be!
Ah I see, more Lost in Translation then.
But it does. And then again – maybe not, no.
But it’s interesting: My ex-narc who is a Virgo (…) was obsessed with astrology. You think he made that up? I don’t really believe so, as he was like 50 times more interested in it than I was. He tried to understand my character in full through that .. hmm….
Did he know you liked astrology before he revealed his interest in it to you? If so, he was most likely mirroring and if not, then he evidently found it of interest but especially as a means by which to control – hence the analysis you mention.
More like … Lost in my post-traumatic Memory …
Sophia: I believe he evolved. 🙂
Do you happen to know your personality type? I am curious to know if some personality types find it easier to operate as you do and if certain personality types are more successful than others.
Do you mean as per the MBI analysis?
Yes.
Yes one of the commenters sent me the link so I went through it online a few weeks back.
Do you mind sharing what yours is?
Did you happen to share what your type is? I have been reading through posts I haven’t already read to see if I could find it.
I did Sophia, it is one of the posts.
I found it 🙂 I took the test a while back and got ENFP. Took it a week ago and got INFP. Your personality type and mine are supposed to get along well.
I do not doubt that to be the case. Open the wine I am on my way round!
I have purchased and read through (for the most part) Escape, Manipulated, Decipher, Exorcism, Fuel, Evil, and last Revenge. I am curious, did you write Evil first? I have yet to rate your books though I plan to after I take notes on what I want to say. Though I don’t plan to take revenge, I laughed so hard at the thought of doing some of the things you mentioned. 🙂
Of the ones listed Evil was published first. Material for many of my books has been in various forms for some time and it has only been in the last 18 months that I began to pull it together. Thank you for reading.
I had the feeling that it was. Did you notice your heart getting softer with each book? I was in therapy years ago and my psychologist told me, “Secrets keep you sick.” In my experience, I think he was right.
Hi Sophia, interesting observations. My heart has not grown softer I suspect my writing style has adapted to cater for the readers. The comment about secrets keep you sick is an interesting one. I am musing on that.
will we find out the type of Personality of Yours then HG? I’m very very curious. …
I have already detailed what came up in the test Bruised.
What’s your star sign? Do you like personality type-analysis?
Whichever one matches most with your star sign naturally ava101. I find such analysis to be open to such interpretation as to be often unhelpful – a little like horoscopes!
HG
Do your kind flood dating sights. Do you ever meet any of the women? I am not sure what the purpose of dating sights are. I am sure your very charming on dating sites but do you use these sights strictly to grab fast fuel. I would think in person, any place you go, you can meet anyone with charm and intelligence? So what is the real reason to be on a dating sight for you? Maybe a lesser who could not get a women in public, I could see using a dating sight. I would think an elite has no problem in the public eye
Hello SII, indeed our kind do. They are used to gain fuel albeit it is low grade, but moreso they are used as hunting grounds to identify secondary and primary sources. You are right, I meet with success beyond the confines of a dating site, but maintaining a presence on one allows for fuel, for potential prospects, hoovers, the gathering of intelligence and triangulation.
HG, do you think it is possible for a Mid Range to eventually acknowledge and accept what they are and have done? I’m over trying to make my ex Narc understand but I am curious if this is a progressive disorder? I have learned so much from you over the last week, the lightbulbs going off in my head have been I credibly illuminating! Another question; if a Lesser or Mid-Range listens to your material will they recognize their traits? Will the lightbulbs go off for them as they do the Empath? You have SO MUCH material, you have likely covered this many times, if so please point me to the right article and I’ll check it out. This is ALL very enlightening, you thank you!!!
Hello TTBD, I think they can acknowledge the behaviours owing to their increased cognitive function but they will not link it to be one of our kind. The behaviours will also be caveated and relied on for the purposes of achieving a gain. It is a form of cognitive empathy – “I understand how my not speaking to you might have upset you, but of course I was hurt by your remarks.”
A Lesser is unlikely to recognise the traits. The Mid-Range may well do but his or her reaction will be that described in No! You Are the Narcissist Part Two.
Another excellent piece. My N found me on FB thru mutual friends after he and I met at a party. I was charmed by his intellectual curiosity and conversation skills. Little did I know I was one of many at the time and that in the discard phase, he would use technology to line up other women. Social media + technology have really amped your games, huh?
It has proven a considerable boon in the identification, reaching and manipulation of our victims BGG.
You have no rivals, HG! We are all well aware of that! Happy New Year!
I am always pleased to read such confirmation IL. Happy New Year to you.
