Awww, I love to be called Imp? =)

I'm not sure if my husband is a narcissist. Although he has potential... and he's said a few things over the past year that make me think he's heading in that direction. My previous relationship was with a narcissist. Seems I have a pattern for picking that type of man. Maybe the initial physical attraction is too much for me to resist. My husband is very handsome, but I didn't fall in love with his looks - I fell in love with the his sense of humor, intelligence and kindness. I wonder how narcissism develops. People (men and women) fawn all over my husband for his creativity, genius, stylishness (they call him Mr. GQ), quick wit, business sense, athletic skills... you name it. I wonder if we are creating the monster.

Anyway, please don't discount your value (or looks) because your husband is making his current choices. People change. Sadly, it isn't always for the better. The "hot" OW has nothing over you. Anyone that moves in on a married person lacks personal integrity. Pretty (or "hot") on the outside doesn't matter in the end.
