Because I once encountered a situation I had never experienced before ..... ... even though it was a milder case of what is possible, I spent about three to four years reading on a subject a bit deeper, I think, than most. I do this because some subjects are interesting, and it takes time to sort through various kinds of rubbish; and whatever you choose to investigate at any time has it's quota of rubbish --- and I have no explanation for that. It seems to be some unwritten law or conservation mechanism at work. The subject was narcissism. It was entirely foreign to me. But understanding it was complicated by the fact that people have a tendency to lump all their problems into convenient boxes with labels. Jilted lovers, angry husbands, distressed wives ..... many of these decide that their partners are narcissists. So it takes time to sort through. You can read this article and draw your own conclusions. From all my experience/readings on narcissism --- which, I think the popular "oh look at me" part of American culture is great at catalyzing --- if you view its set of traits as reasonably wide, this psychologist puts his target towards the extreme right. How good his assessment is may reveal itself by November. For me, Hans Anderson's "The Emperor's New Clothes" summed up the whole situation long ago. In this case the Emperor is his own tailor, and he has a rather large cavalry of needle and thread carriers. The extent to which people cater to what he sees in himself is dumbfounding. The only solution is time .... because when the Universe suddenly opens up a school for learning (which it does all the time), you either go willingly or you eventually get dragged into it. There is no choice but for this to happen. salon.com
