I just came across your post on NPD..I have been researching it myself as my H has been diagnosed with it. He has a real difficulty showing his emotions and has NEVER cried in front of me in 15 years. Although, he had cried, so I have heard when I had a restraining order against him in November.
I am going to check out the websites you posted. Thank you so much for posting them. I am going to read more of your sitch.
Good for you being happy for you! Way to go!
I think that when you live with someone with NPD and then you don't, you feel a sense of relief when you are alone. You don't feel like the "transmitter" of all the emotions that exist in your M..
Food for thought. Typical spouses of NPD's are often diagnosed with Borderline Personaliy Disorder. You tend to be "overemotional" when you are not getting any emotion from your spouse...Interesting thought, huh?
