This is something I'm working on with my therapist but would appreciate any constructive or sympathetic feedback.

To make a long story as short as possible, my sense of self-worth seems to be tied up in how attractive my partner is. I'm married 22 years to a beautiful, wonderful woman who I'm lucky to have, but when I see younger, more beautiful women, I feel like, "I would have more self-worth if I were with ...

Narcissist, psychopath or sociopath?

Hello,

I have been keeping my eyes on someone and really want to ask them what’s wrong. They are acting very, very strange and I was wondering if I could have some general opinions and opinions from people’s past experiences as to what category they think fits with this person.


Some of the things they are doing are:

- nervous when someone says hello after a few years
- Seemingly love ...

....and condescending. I've been relatively active on various other forums that include tennis, audio, photography, cycling, guitar, dogs, cats, automobiles, etc and the participants have always been extremely helpful, courteous and nice. I always end my questions or requests with "Thank you very much in advance!"

However, and very interestingly, I've been on two different legal forums and the replies are ALWAYS condescending, often downright vicious.

I have some theories, but I'd like to hear ...

Well... I have a boyfriend. But... we're already having a hard time and things haven't even started properly between us. We met in mid-November. It was beautiful between us, we had a wonderful connection, but at the beginning of the new year, he started to move away from me. Logically, I started to think he was losing interest in me, but every time I asked him about it, he tried to convince me at all ...

I recently started dating someone and it seemed great , a genuine kind hearted person but all of a sudden I’ve been getting a gut feeling that all is not right. I’ve been with a narcissist before and I’ve had past trauma so perhaps that’s playing on my feelings as obviously hard to trust someone when you are getting to know them.

I just felt triggered because love has been mentioned one month in etc ...

I've recently become aware that I feel like still in love with a girl I went to college with 30 years ago, it's as if it was just yesterday. I was too shy to ask her out then and I lost my chance as the last time I saw her she was about to be married. I've had severe depression since then, is it possible that this could have been the cause? Perhaps I never ...

I grew up told by both my Mom and Dad to not feel anything that opposed that they thought was best. Often times if I had an idea or wanted to go somewhere as I got older, I’d get push back, told I can’t go. If I wanted to date someone they didn’t like, in my younger years they forbid me from communication, and as I got older they were just very vocal about it. ...

I’ve been talking/hanging out with this girl for about 2 months now. We’ve hung out 5 times and I haven’t been able to make a move. I’m still a virgin and am super nervous in the moment. There’s been plenty of opportunities and the vibe is there but I can’t make the move. Also I’m not a big texter so we only talk every 2-3 days and our conversations are pretty short. Sometimes we’ll have ...

I've been talking to a girl and she likes to game. She needed some help with one, however I'm not very good at them. I had a streamer friend that was though, so I got the two in touch. At first I was kinda jealous they were playing together. Then more so when they started messaging outside of games. Eventually, I saw them both in a party ( not necessarily with each other ) and ...
