Thank you for your comments...i did end things, via email. I sent her a copy of the anaysis of HPD, said I couldn't do it anymore. She wrote back that I am playing the poor victim and we will never be able to communicate, so please don't write. I replied "ok" and "spoken like a true HPD!"
I am now feeling ready to move on and meet new women with some potential. Now that I know the warning signs, i'll never be trapped again!
The End

Well it sounds like that's the best result, rcd. You knew what she was getting at, and you've taken control of the situation from your perspective, which is the best thing.
On the bisexuality issue ... yes it seems bisexual activity (rather than orientation) is more common among HPDs, particularly male HPDs. My HPD ex was bisexual, for example. I think it has to do with (1) the importance of sexual intimacy as a means for the HPD to attract and maintain the attention they seek and (2) the lack, for some HPDs, of other, adequate ways for bonding with people and getting their attention. In some ways, HPDs really have a hard time genuinely relating to people in general ... of either sex. It's easier if they sexualize the situation, because that is familiar territory for them, and is a "tried and true" way to get attention. My HPD ex didn't seem to be particularly attracted to men, to be honest, but he had a lot of sex with men over the years, according to his own account, and I suspect this had mostly to do with using sex as a means to get attention, rather than a truly bisexual orientation.
