Title: Narcissisism (sp)
Post by: Mr Smith on July 20, 2008, 08:26:44 PM
Quote
Narcissistic personality disorder is a condition characterized by an inflated sense of self-importance, need for admiration, extreme self-involvement, and lack of empathy for others. Individuals with this disorder are usually arrogantly self-assured and confident. They expect to be noticed as superior. Many highly successful individuals might be considered narcissistic. However, this disorder is only diagnosed when these behaviors become persistent and very disabling or distressing.

Okay. I have been recently accused of being Narcissistic.

One: For some reason I think I'm important? Yeah right. I've never had a spaz because I haven't had a newsbox here, rage quit and sulked, deleted my account and all that shit, why the FUCK do I think i'm important?

It's kind of Ironic that I get accused of this by someone with "Sir" in his username.  ::)

Two: Need for admiration. Sure, everyone likes if someone says something nice. When have I ever fished for compliments? When have I ever encouraged threads that go on about how awesome I am? I believe the one at wrong planet got closed soon after it was made at my request. You should all know by now my attitude towards the jman threads. This hasn't changed.
Posting that bra picture (need I add it was not in the public section) is no worse than the 10 or so of you that have posted your dicks.

Three: Lack of empathy for others, well this speaks for itsself.

Four: I am not arrogant.

Lastly, I'm very sorry if you find my posts disableing and distressing, but if that's the case, you're reading into things too much, so put me on ignore.

Good day.

I wouldn't go as far as saying you're a narcissist, I tend to completely avoid anyone who shows narcissistic traits.


WIth that said you can be a bit of a bitch sometimes, however I think you just put on a front because it's the internet. I have a feeling you're a really nice girl IRL.

I don't know which "Sir" accused you of being a Narcissist, but I think that he must be mistaken.  I certainly don't see you that way. 

I think that sometimes you have a sort of "tough girl" facade, but that doesn't make you Narcissistic.

I think that you are very pretty and that makes some people jealous enough to want to try to find something wrong with you, even if they have to invent it in their imaginations.

OK Halle did I accuse you of being a Narcissist?

Really?

"The reason why I was put off by you in WP and over here is I had the impression that you "played up your issues" with body image and self confidence to hide a narcissistic personality ad someone who is bigoted and judgmental. That has nothing to do with your looks. I was just prepared cut you an even break because your reply sounded genuine and Carla did say nice things about you."

See I read that and it looks to me that what I said is that I formed an opinion on you that was not nice and had nothing to do with your looks. I then said that I believed you sounded genuine and that I was happy to accept that Carla said you were nice in real life, therefore to stop giving you a hard time.

Where is the accusation Halle?
Sure I had that opinion of you and it may or may not be unwarranted. I was prepared to give you the benefit of the doubt because as your previous protestations mentioned I don't know you IRL. I had not said you were narcissistic.

So instead of being a Drama Llama, how about reporting what really happened and take responsibility for your own actions (Unless of course there is an ego stopping you * cough Narcissism cough* in which case I hope you get as much drama and support as you need.)

You did mention the word and she took it literal perhaps since you said you didn't call her it.

What have highlighted? You have bolded part of what I had described was "an impression" I had.
You do know the difference between an opinion and an accusation don't you? An impression is an opinion about something where as an accusation is stating it as fact. I ask you again Fiona. Where did I accuse you?

Dude, you do know you are talking to a chick, so that basicly mean's you just got owned there something bad.

Never even hint at that kinda shit unless you want your balls kicked in.

This has been a lesson in how to survive women.

Oh right the "suspend all logic and where there is emotion involved thing"? See I don't and never got that. Mind you my obviously poor long suffering ex-wife use to wonder why I never bought her flowers after a fight and I just told her "I don't reward bad behaviour". Still don't I guess. I don't care who it is. You are right about one thing though, owning her is very difficult if she is completely obvious to the logic....I have the same problem with Randy. I would love to see a callout between those two.

Tbh, saying "I had the impression you're biggoted and judgemental" isn't much better than saying "You are biggoted and judgemental".

Oh right so we disproved the accusation and now we are arguing semantics? OK Fiona I'm game. I will start of with a few hypothetical situations of the top of my head.

OK so Journalist meets War Vet:

Journalist : So what Division were you in?
War Vet : 38th.
Journalist : Oh I had the impression everyone in that division died in that horrendous battle you had?
War Vet : Oh Nah mate. We took heavy casualties but we doubled back in a fighting retreat and got back air evac.

Compare to the accusation

OK so Journalist meets War Vet:

Journalist : So what Division were you in?
War Vet : 38th.
Journalist : Oh all of yo,u in that division died in that horrendous battle you had?
War Vet : WTF? I am still here. Are you on crack?

OR

Friend A : So that girl I saw you out with last night is your girlfriend? I thought that black haired girl you had lunch with was your girlfriend.
Friend B : No she is my sister. I caught up with her for a few days because it was Mum's 50th.
Friend A : Ah Right. OK I see the family resemblance now. Sorry my bad.
Friend B : Don't stress

Now for the accusation

Friend A : So that girl I saw you out with last night is your girlfriend? Why are you screwing that black-haired girl you were having lunch with then?.
Friend B : That's my fucking sister! I caught up with her for a few days because it was Mum's 50th.
Friend A : That's even worse. Does your Mum know or is she in on it?
Friend B : Step outside shithead


Now Fiona do you see the difference between having an impression and blatantly accusing someone? Need more examples? Want to contest it? Perhaps you can start another thread full of more bullshit and I can defend myself there too. I know something even more radical - How about YOU admit YOU fucked up. You were wrong and YOU apologise for being an ass. Joking of course I can't imagine that is likely to ever happen.

Well true. Women and logic are two different things, or you could say they use 'womens logic'

From what I can see, HB pretty much took what you said as a way of saying that she is narcissistic but also hiding behind the word "opinion" at the same time. Nobody wants to be taken for a fool so you have to be on guard for this kind of sneak attack at all times.

Randy is just fucking bat-shit insane.

I'm rarely a flower buyer, but at the same time I don't take my wife's shit when she is acting badly. And she thanks me for it, maybe just not at the time.  :green:

Some generalization = good. Overgeneralization = bad. It's not rocket science.

When a flaw is pointed out in one's generalizations, it's better to revise the model than ignore it. Is your brain really so rushed or overtaxed around the opposite sex that it can't spare the energy to create better models of reality?

No, but obviously you have to take into account that the reader is going to throw in a little common sense. Sure I might not be the best at expressing my ideas, but that's where you come in.

Maybe you are just reading too much into what I've said and are over generalising about me? Food for thought.

A little from column A, a little from column B.

I do think the 'maybe' at the start denoted that I was stating an opinion, not a fact. But perhaps you knew all along that I meant it as a fact and I was just hiding behind an opion.  :-*
