[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure about years, but my MIL waits until DH texts/calls her. She will never be the first one to reach out. She just gets pissier (sp?) and pissier about it lol. [/quote] I've seen this before it makes no sense. Is this some form of a "test" from a total narcissist? I wish someone could explain this to me...[/quote] Yes. My mother never calls me and I always have to call. You have to keep demonstrating that they are the center of the universe and demonstrating how much you like them. It's a narc power play.[/quote] I experience the exact same. You summarized it so well. My mom needs to be have all the attention on her and when we do talk, it all revolves around her. If she sends a gift for the kids...oh my, she just keeps talking about the gift. You just can't give her enough attention. It's exhausting to be around her.[/quote]
