I find this very Ironic...

So when we were together my exHPDgf kept wanting me to read this book, it was her favorite book in the world, she would go on and on about it, the book is called 'The Host', she was so excited when she heard they were making a movie about the book.

The irony is that for those of you that don't know the premise is:

An alien race known as Souls take over Earth and the human race. Souls must be implanted into a host body (non-host or hpd) when this happens the consciousness of the original owner is eventually erased, leaving only their memories and knowledge.

My exhpdgf has literally thousands of pictures of old friends she never talks to anymore, exes ect, memories if you will at her house and saves everything like a pack rat.

Just thought there was some real irony here, kind of crepy too when you think about it...

nope fail to see how they are related ... but I really can't see how you could think that they are. ... how old is she, like 22?

most stuff I chalk up to girl antics and let it go. - don't worry she will have a new favorite movie in a few weeks anyways. i'm off to torrent a copy of this movie. it sounds cool.

edit:
as a side note, I felt it fair to include I've been diagnosed with Baptist Christian.

Actually she’s 41 but she acted like a child most of the time we were together, I guess that’s because from what I understand most HPD’s stop emotionally maturing around ages 3-6. There were few consistent things about her and this book was one of them. The correlation is simple, the Souls suck their human hosts dry of everything they are, just like the HPD does in a relationship. The souls move onto the next human host for supply once that is accomplished just like an HPD does after they’ve exhausted their latest victim. The irony is how there’s a direct correlation to what the alien life forms do to regular people, it’s essentially the same as what an HPD does to their unsuspecting victims. I wonder if deep down or subconsciously she gets the connection.

I agree, I dont see how it's related either.

ohhh ewwwwwww, ewwwwww! You too eh! I wrote a couple of posts way back when about this. Can't remember which ones they were unfortunately. A filing of my ex's life in photographs in date order. It spooked me no end; particularly as when we got together she wanted to go through each and every photo album and give me the history behind the photographs (and there was a stack already despite her only being 24/25 at the time. Naturally I was patient in going through it all with her, knowing like a wiggly butt Golden Retriever that I would get a nice reward afterwards for being a gooooodddd dawwwggyyy...manipulation cuts both ways... ). The thing is she conveniently skipped whole sections and i noticed and felt the skipping strange. I went back to those albums one day towards the end when she was out and I felt that things had become horrid enough between us to deserve a bit of detective work. I discovered much more than she originally "allowed" me to see... ! I confronted her on some of it and it did not go over well... ! In any case; i think this systematic detailed filing of life including exes may be related to an inability to make clean cuts in relationships. She emphasized that to me numerous times about exes and it still spooks me now. Reminders of the past are perhaps actively maintained and referred back to when needs be and all that this may mean. For me, what she told me and showed me still creates that looking over my shoulder feeling; I still worry about how, when and where she might pop up. Sure I have had no problems with her for over 3 years now but I am still on my guard. Maybe I will be like that for years to come without reason, or until one of us changes companies. For sure I never felt that with another one of my exes. Would be glad to run into any one of those girls tomorrow and give them a hug; but not her. I guess her working proximity and that she bought a house not so far from mine (she had the full region to choose from..pffff) fuels that. I really wish she would move away...."I was here first p*ss off" I feel like saying...

Everybody likes their memories, I wouldn't say it's creepy, but there is irony. :/

Wait, wait, wait. Is that really true? Do people with histrionic personality disorder genuinely stop emotionally maturing around the age of 3-6? I thought people with histrionic personality disorder are usually very socially and emotionally intelligent, and they use this intelligence to fulfil their lust of attention through social manipulation?
