ofp,

what have you read on true narcassism...like NPD?

she will not trust you, because thst is what SHE would do. we expect people to behave like we would.

this is just one of many reasons why this is soooo hard.

as for your last question...IMHO, there is no chance for a lasting relationship right now, now while she has not faced her past and grown from these experiences nor have you cleaned up your side of the fence...how would this relationship be any different, know what i mean? so focus your energy on you....even 10% of your focus on her is 10% that would otherwise be used in making you into the man u want to become!!!
