Well...it's been a while since I wrote here. I've been strong and haven't contacted my p/a since we broke up in early January. As a result, I've been finding...
Hi Monica, ... Snip that vine. Don't let your 'friends' tell you this stuff. If they contact you with complaints about him contacting them, tell them to send...
Monica, I can relate, that is why I am still in my relationship. I think PA can be very nice and got to the other extreme also. I tend to think more about...
Hi, Well this is my first post here, very much out of desperation I guess. I've been married to my wife AH for 8 years and we have two very beautiful children...
Hi Simon, welcome. Could you give us some more examples? It's been interesting for me to distinguish where my stbxH was p/a (e.g. neglecting something he'd ...

Welcome to the Group. I know that this goes "both ways," i.e., both women and men can be p/a. I just ended a 5-year relationship with a p/a man. Your...
Thank you so much for the replies, something I've come to realize is that it virtually impossible to describe what its like to live with a PA, its like some...
Simon, Thanks for the example. Any one story of p/a behavior sounds like one's just sulking about nothing. I can imagine that even your second example could...
Hi M, ... paid-job situations, too. Let me ... family, but as time you spend ... money. Maybe she even deems ... time you spend away from her. ... you pay...
Hi M, Multiple embedded posts? I was getting lost towards the end there, Check page 66 of Limits of Scientific Psychiatry: The Role of Uncertainty in Mental...

You certainly can if they can't get away, ie they are your child.........I know my DH has "made me" very passive, as its the only way to cope. If he detects...

Where they go when their old patterns of behaviour no longer pay off? I am taking a gamble on this in my marriage. I think they either find someone else to...
I think frustration would be the best word for what its like, yeah. This all sounds very familiar to me bmbcelona. I ignored the warning signs and married...
This could have been me writing this about my man. I struggled with not knowing what I had done wrong and at the moment we are apart again because his alter...
