Should I continue my friendship with this person?

My friend, who shows every single sign of sociopathy, wrote this note to my friend. She showed it to me, and it just gave me a very eerie feeling, and she said the same happened to her. Can someone please analyze this for us? This is the letter… [All spelling and grammar were left as-is]

Hmm, I suck at writing notes. I usually write myself into a circle without a person to guide the conversation, but even then I still do, so lets see how well this goes. One of the biggest things I love about you is that you are a lot like me. Caring for others and not getting the same respect back, even from the people you love. I envy you, in a way. You use your heart more than your mind. Where some might see that as a flaw, I find it interesting. You are constantly trying to settle for others to make you happy, but you don’t care enough about yourself. I personally, am happy all the time and get my happiness from others. If I help others, I feel powerful. I love to lead, but I can be too scared to speak sometimes. I’d rather write. I’ve managed to save three lives through things I’ve said to others. The problem is that people don’t realize how many people care about them until they wake up in the hospital. I see life as an adventure to push yourself and see how much you can do. Someone from Anonymous once said that one of the best ways to feel better about yourself is by doing something for someone else. They are true. If I can’t find happiness in myself, I can at least show it to others. We all expect the same respect we give, and that’s why I help. To show others that they are cared about. I don’t get mad or upset because there is no reason to. There are thousands of things that are going to happen as we grow up, so I don’t let one thing leech onto me. As I’m still growing up, I’ve grown less shy. I’m not afraid to talk to anyone, I just have nothing to say. Like I said, I don’t care a lot about myself, so the majority of my stories are about other people.

Anyway, I wanted you to know that you are loved by others. People might not show it, but there are a few of us who who do, because we know that everyone trys their best. Nobody should be upset for something stupid. Nobody knows what the future holds , and if you want to look at the past, remember the good times, don’t let the bad times keep you down. Learn from them. If you can’t think of any good memories, go out and make some. Take a risk and smile that you did it. You can’t keep being hung up on something you can’t change.

People care, regardless of if you see it or not. I show my way of caring indirectly, but I still felt like you should have a sign from me because I’m not that obvious.



Don’t hold back, it’ll be nice

PS I have no idea what messages you are talking about."

Notice how he says he doesn't care about himself, but he constantly talks about himself. And how he never directly addresses the friend in the letter. What would you say about this person?

I don't know what the letter is supposed to be about but I'll give it a look.

The first sentence is extremely narcissistic and self-centered.

One of the biggest things I love about you is that you are a lot like me. Caring for others and not getting the same respect back, even from the people you love. I envy you, in a way.

More narcissism and self-centeredness. It doesn't read like this person genuinely cares about the person the letter is written to.

I personally, am happy all the time...Like I said, I don’t care a lot about myself, so the majority of my stories are about other people.

And yet even more narcissism.

Anyway, I wanted you to know... but I still felt like you should have a sign from me because I’m not that obvious.

More narcissism and perhaps some projection of blame?

The entire letter reads like a narcissistic rant, but what was the letter supposed to be about?
