HG, is this the same as the printed book?
Yes
Thank You HG
Touché HG, Touché
I see you added “the world’s no. 1 source” too. You’re not going to be able to keep your identity under wraps much longer!
Of course I am, I’ve done so nearly all my life.
There are people that know you IRL. Only a matter of time before TMZ pays big money to one of your inner circle friends to rat you out!
They are unswervingly loyal – with good reason.
I truly have no doubt that is the case.
I don’t get it. I’m befuddled because I would have that degree of loyalty but not many people do. In fact, I have the confidentiality of a priest but it’s an uncommon attribute for many.
Dearest HG: Regarding your reply: `Of course I am, I’ve done so nearly all my life.` HG, I see what you did there. Touche`
They manipulate the finest details of everything…
I find that I actually manipulate myself at times more then any narcissist has ever done to me.
Now now FM1T we will have no such vulgarity mentioned here!
Write what you wish oh wise one, but you and I both know that it is true! 😘
How does manipulating the self manifest? I’m interested in understanding this.
You can’t.
As in you can’t manipulate yourself.
Lorelei,
I will try to explain this to you, hopefully you understand it.
I have been conditioned so well by all of the narcissists in my life, that I get into my own head and they don’t need to do anything. It seems it doesn’t matter who it is, even someone new that I have met and it doesn’t need to be in a romantic relationship either, it could be a new neighbor or a new employee who I form a bond with, I’m so use to the manipulations carried out by the narcissists, my mind goes right into a past scenario and I will think I know what your doing, I’ve done this before, this is always the outcome, I know how to play this game. So I get myself so worked up with ET and what these people are doing and none of it is true! So then I have to back peddle in order to not look like a complete nutter! I hope this gives you some what of an understanding Lorelei? I’ve never tried to explain to anyone before.
I think I understand. Is this a hypervigilance resulting from mistreatments that make you predict behaviors or misinterpret things are being toxic that are not? Like even normalcy feels awry because you expect misery? So, you have to back peddle when the predicted outcome is not occurring as not to seem like your reactions to the relationship were unusual. The “unusual” stuff would have been the high alert sort of reactivity items?
Nice graphic!
It’s more than nice it’s superb
Indeed.
