[quote=Anonymous]Yes my dad. I could write a book, but I'll try to do some key points:
- conditional 'love.' every day choices of all kinds boil down to this toddler like subtext 'give me what I want or else you are a bad person.'
- rejects you if you displease - sick? unsightly? unable to serve? special moment with spotlight on you not about the N? N has no use for you. 
- attracts groupies. I don't know how, but have seen it so many times over the years. like a bus, another comes along with regularity.
- has empathy and feelings but they are all about himself, or sometimes he imagines himself in many different roles and sort of creates stories of himself in those roles to have feelings about and identify with
- fundamentally just not a reciprocal relationship - his agenda, his timetable, no time for you. If you horse trade with an N you must get yours up front
- compliments from the N are back handed, condescending and/or demeaning 'you're a good little worker when you finally get around to it.'

not meant to be exhaustive, just some of the main behavior themes we experienced.[/quote]
