Well said!
All 5 definitely applied to me and I've identified how I came to be that way. Some of the behaviors are easy to change and others...you never really get a chance to change them until you run across somebody you're interested in.

A few additional points:
-You are under no obligation to love somebody just because they love you. You are under no obligation to love somebody just because they have sex with you.
-People enter and leave your life as they follow their course. If they're clearly not going your way, let them go. You'll find someone more suitable.
-Never settle for anything less than exactly what you want. There's literally billions of women out there.
-Humans, by nature, are pleasure seeking creatures. There's no shame in that. Seek that which pleases you.
-Love is love and sex is sex. Remember what it is you're looking for from a particular woman and don't confuse the two.
-When you feel yourself falling for someone, stand back and objectively look it over. Is your head in agreement with your heart? If not, go with your head.

In conclusion:
If you find yourself in the clutches of an HPD sufferer and you put up with it, there's something wrong with you. Seek help. If you have been with an HPD sufferer and you're heartbroken over it, there's something wrong with you. Seek help. If you're worried that you might fall victim to an HPD sufferer in the future, there's something wrong with you. Seek help.
