Hello, can you give me some insight. I have seen now too women with histrionic tendencies move to another city after their sister moved first. In both of these cases the sisters have quite clearly shown that rhey don't want to have a close relationship with the histrionic sister. And yet the histrionic sister still wants to follow them in to another city. What is the reason behind this? At least In one of these ...
