[quote=Anonymous]I agree with the PP who said this sounds like a narcissist. My father was one and what you describe is pretty much what it was like growing up for me. My advice is to (quietly) focus on yourself and re-discover what 'normal' is. You have been living this way for so very long that your perception of reality is warped. Believe you me, it's better to grow old alone than to continue to live the way you are. But, you may not be alone the way you think. My mother bloomed after she stopped grieving after my father's death (yeah, that was sick, she grieved the a$$hole). She reconnected with old friends, made new ones and now has nice communities she's a part of in Florida where she winters and in our midwest state. YouTube has some helpful videos (google Narcissist). If you work, you might reach out to EAP for some free counseling. Good luck. [/quote]
