You are quite right. I don’t trust myself – to such an extent that I am second-guessing everything.
Ditto re ow advice, there is no way I can compete with a fantasy woman who just has to be on her best behaviour at the weekends and help H spend his money.
It’s funny, that book you mentioned – I have seen it recommended during my trawl into personality disorders (that H was displaying) and have deliberately shied away from it and the implication that I was as batty as he was.
No apology please for ‘dumping’. I think we’re all here to share our experiences for the common good.
You have succeeded in making me stop and readdress some stuff with a bit more honesty. I hope you’ll call in again and find me in better sorts. But I know I’m still going to struggle with detachment whilst receiving such frequent and sometimes painful contact from H. I’m sure there is a way to deal w/it. I just haven’t identified it yet. Perhaps the book will help on that.
