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...
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...
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...
Simon they are undependable, and you need to take on your own way of getting up. I cannot ask my PA for anything, he will say later and later will never ...
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 ...
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...
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 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...
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...
Wow...I had no idea my long "blog" about my break up with my p/a of 5 years would start such a conversation! Guess it is fuel for the fodder..glad there seems...

I think it's Scott Wetzler who gives an interesting history of the development of P/A behavior in western men. Since I was raised in a subculture where men...
Your post got me to thinking about how you're going to be choosier in the future. I realize that as sick as I am, I have always attracted PA/addict types, but...
Hi Molly, Thanks so much for your wonderful responses to my long post-mortem drawl! I'm not sure about the propane gas tank being typical p/a stuff (!), I just...
Monica that was some story, glad you can share it with us, you have learned a great deal. I hope to become as strong as you are...often I give into my pa ...
I have to say, all that talk of Bozo made me crack up. My father, a true PA/drunk/sex addict/molester, actually WAS Bozo the Clown! Google Jim or James Chapin...
Monica-- Sadly, until our actual lives are threatened, we stay attached to these maniacs. I'm so sorry about the death threat, actually for all concerned. Your...
Wow, this is really interesting.. I too had been dating a PA man for almost two years who has an extremely vendictive attitude. He talked me into buying a...
Monica, So glad to hear this. And to see a bit of life on the list! Thanks for sharing this prosaic post-mortem. ... Um ........ is this kind of thing...
Good for you, Monica. I'm proud of you. I agree with this sentence profoundly. I believe I could too and I'd never look twice at one. Happy Valentine's Day...
Hi guys, I wrote earlier today to someone new, hicksman, I believe, who just joined. It reminded me that I really do owe the group a thank you for all your...

Hi, I have realized that I am living with a PA. We have been married 20+ years. I am seeing this cold shoulder, ignoring behavior more and more. It is so...
