Maybe because of this passage: "From my personal experience, and from what I've seen in the clinical literature, narcissists don't talk about their inner life -- memories, dreams, reflections -- much at all. They rarely recount dreams.

Of course, I just about died when I read "inner life." ^_~

I do think she has some sociopathic tendencies, still. The thing about having so little regard for other people really struck me. I sometimes get the feeling that she only acknowledges other people because it seems like a fair trade. Watch how she treats the kids she interacts with on her board when one of them has a problem. When she tries to give them advice or lift their spirits, it's always this false vibe, seeming to say that she's doing it because other people do, because it's what's socially dictated, but mostly because when it's her turn to whine, people are supposed to coddle her. Notice how, when someone posts something about themselves, she always turns it back to her problems.

Like I said, I get this vibe that she only seems to care about other people (even their lives) because it's what's socially dictated. And in that way, she scares me a little.

Still, the first web page you sent seems to match her personality perfectly. It was an eerie read. O_o

~~T, off to work
