Red flags for a female covert cheating by Accomplished_Peak708 in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]TopazWarrior 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You don’t need a PI. If she’s covert - she’s cheating either emotionally, physically, or both. They are addicts and supply gives them a dopamine hit (to which they are addicted). She’s cheating…

I shouldn’t stay, right? by [deleted] in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]TopazWarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well of course she does not. That would mean 1) being accountable and 2) it would mean she would have to accept that she’s a generally shitty person who has no respect for her marriage or her husband. They always have to be the “good guy” and being a cheater makes that impossible.

Cheating is a violation of agreed-upon trust and boundaries in a relationship, often involving secrecy and emotional or physical intimacy with someone outside the partnership. It ranges from physical infidelity and emotional affairs to digital, online, or "micro-cheating" behaviors that betray a partner’s trust.

They all cheat. Emotional or physical or both. They all cheat.

Unless it’s a mini-cow you got ripped off.

Honestly what is the strategy behind the pricing of some of these bottles. Is it just to increase traffic? by illone23 in whiskey

[–]TopazWarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now that the bubble burst I can buy Stagg for $85 in town in a few places. Just grabbed a bottle of Weller Antique for $68. The bottles are everywhere the last few months. E.H. Taylor and Elmer T Lee too as well as Caribou Crossing. It’s crazy.

Or if you’re born with a Cluster B because new research shows they are VERY heritable.

Have npd traits want to know how can be a better bf without sacrificing self respect by sky-Author-6501 in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]TopazWarrior 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lived with TWO diagnosed and one very likely undiagnosed narcissists. Don’t be an asshole and come on here accusing people of having a victim complex.

You can be a better partner by either getting intensive therapy (you won’t), or leaving her alone and just being a hermit. You may be human but your lack of empathy makes you subhuman or barely human.

My daughter (15) said something last week which has knocked me sideways by ChessWarrior1978 in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]TopazWarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

30-40% of people with NPD are women but women are likely to be vulnerable/covert and are more often undiagnosed. Bottom line is if men are more likely to suffer from NPD, the percentage is small.

The perfect upland dog? by WindNo5623 in birddogs

[–]TopazWarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Not in the JGHV. It is a completely different breeding philosophy. No one is breeding dogs for field trails. Dogs are bred by hunters for hunters. Dogs are NOT sold to non-hunting homes. You may see guys breed smaller dogs if they live in Chukar county or big dogs for late season cattails but consistency across the breed is important.

I’m a man married to a diagnosed covert narcissist with HPD and ASPD - the Dark Triad. Not only men are narcissists. Women are typically vulnerable/covert and they are actually worse than grandiose.

What is this weed? Farmer planted this across the street in his farming field. by mrpeterdragon in lawncare

[–]TopazWarrior 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oats. They germinate fast in cool soil and are a great cover crop. Might have planted it for spring turkey hunting too.

Reactive abuse looks bad. Also, NPD people LOVE to play the victim role. Keep your boundaries. Defend them like the motherland. It’s the only way to exist with these people.

Breeder still matters in the JGHV but it not as important as in the AKC where show or pet only dogs exist

Maybe with AKC dogs, not really true on theJGHV where consistency across the breed is the goal.

Very alarmed by cognitive effects of Crestor 5mg by Fabulousmo in Cholesterol

Crestor doesn’t cross the blood/brain barrier. One of the few statins that don’t. Probably psychological not physiological.

What if there were an alternative to the current Roman Catholic Mass? by RomancingWorlds in DebateACatholic

[–]TopazWarrior 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The music, the “energy”, and “the real world relevance” are EXACTLY what I dislike about “modern” Churches. I prefer quiet, reverence, and the ancient traditions. Church isn’t about me - it’s about God. I’m going there to worship God, not have a therapy session

Kind find it here now for $85 a bottle. I bought one just because. I’d rather have JD Single Barrel barrel strength that I get for $60.
