Many women go out into the dating world with misinformation. We listen to what our families' values are, we compare our fathers to other men, and then we find men who fit the ideal that we all have in our heads of the perfect man. We have grown up with our fathers as the images of perfect husbands in our minds, even if our fathers were far from perfect husbands.

Many people experience the Jocasta Complex in reference to the proverbial "mama's boy". The mother often becomes obsessed with her relationship with her son to the exclusion of many other relationships and interests. She generally only chooses a favorite son whom she puts on a pedestal. She may treat this son as though he is her husband or romantic partner rather than being her offspring.

We have all met men who have the Peter Pan syndrome. Many of these men are also narcissistic and self-absorbed simply by the nature of the Peter Pan syndrome. A man who is stuck in his path through life as a boy never matures emotionally. He carries around his childhood sense of himself throughout his life. In many instances, his tastes do not grow or change. The way that he interacts with others does not grow or change. He is still stuck as a 12-year-old boy, or sometimes even younger, in his emotional development.

Narcissism is running rampant in our society. We are becoming victims of other people who are self-centric, self-absorbed, distrustful, and neurotic. Many of these people are experiencing delusions, psychotic episodes, hallucinations, cognitive deficits, attention deficits and memory deficits. They may have low IQ, head injury trauma or other disabilities that they have never exposed to us. You may be a very trusting person. You think that another person will be candid with you about the child abuse they experienced.

Anxiety can escalate to another level. When a person is exposed to traumatic or negative events where they feel little or no control in the outcome, the anxiety can turn into post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). If you have enough recurring events in your life that are traumatic, you may even be diagnosed with complex post-traumatic stress disorder (C-PTSD).

You've had this charming, witty and wonderful guy hanging around, but the more you hang with him and investigate the possibilities, the more red flags arise.

We will show you where you can get help if you are struggling with BPD yourself or how to cope with being the child, lover, or friend of a person with BPD.

Narcissistic abusers... They manipulate. They lie. They cheat. They pick fights. They gaslight to make their partners feel as though they are losing their minds. They compartmentalize their lives so that they can keep their stories and their characters straight. They seem to become whomever the situation calls for. They seem to do it with ease and a lack of conscience.

Most people have come into contact with a deadly and deceptive narcissist at some point during their life. You might not have recognized that the person was a narcissist. But you might have recognized his meanness, inflexibility, tough exterior, Machiavellian ways, chronically unhappy demeanor, death stare, and his envy of you. The narcissist wants what you have. He wants it when he wants it. If he doesn't get it, he will throw a monstrous tantrum that will shatter your life. You don't think that the narcissist is as dangerous as he truly is. The truth is, you may truly never recover.

Many people think of the typical serial killer when they hear the word psychopath. The truth is that there are psychopaths in our daily lives, and we may not even know it. Unlike the other four conditions in the Misunderstood Loner series, the psychopathy disorder is generally something a person is born with versus something that is learned from his environment. His brain is wired a certain way that many of us do not understand, much like how an autistic person has distinct wiring in his or her brain.

It is said that there is an epidemic of narcissists in the world today. Many people go out in the dating world, trying to find someone who is relatively willing and able to have a committed relationship after a certain amount of time. Many of us want partners who are emotionally mature, able to communicate with us, and able to provide intimacy and trust in the relationship. There is no way to get a completely accurate picture of how many narcissists there truly are in the world.

Gaslighting is the circular conversation that you have where no one ever wins. It is the argument that never ends, because there is no resolution that is satisfactory to the narcissist, who never compromises. It is the projection of the narcissist's deficits back onto you, because he cannot take accountability for anything that he has ever said or done. It is the crazy making, the name calling, the false accusations, and the omission of the truth.

Confidence is one of our greatest personal resources. When we are confident, we can face almost any situation and we can come out of it better, even if we fail. Without confidence, we are destined to fail and possibly suffer because of it. It affects your professional and personal life. It shows up in social interactions, meetings, presentations, interviews, dates, and even in the comfort of your own home.

Bipolar is a serious mental disorder that exhibits itself as serious emotional ups and downs, or mood swings. Bipolar sufferers can have hallucinations and psychosis episodes, though not all bipolar persons experience these. Bipolar disorder was formerly known as manic depression. People who suffer from this disorder can have abnormally happy ups ("highs") and extreme depressive down days ("lows").

Many people come to me in despair after they realize that they are in the pits of hell in their relationship with a narcissist. They have been lied to, cheated on, manipulated, and gas-lighted. Their partner isolates them, puts them down, denies them their basic human needs, and abuses them emotionally. Some narcissists even resort to severe physical violence, up to and including murder.

It is no doubt that you or someone you know has wasted a considerable amount of time dating or marrying the wrong man - the man that we call Mr. Unavailable. He is stealthy. He is ruthless.

There is a good reason why this occurs, and I am about to disclose some very important information to you so that you stop making the same mistakes over and over again.
