Hi,


I definetely think he fits the description of narcisstic. A few things too point out about him. People (men and women) usually Love him but end up hating him. He can be very compassionate caring and concerned(which is his normal behavior), which can be seen as an act to get a desired result, because after he does things and learns how the affect his loved ones he continues to do them. He doesnt think his nationality is an excuse to cheat but to be flirty, hugging kissy ect with every woman he meets.

It really doesn't matter which personality disorder(s) he has. The real questions you should be asking yourself

Thank you for your reply.


You are right. I know this, honestly I have known it for a while, I just have to make the move and get through it.


I am a very capable person and I know I will be fine once seperated from the situation.

Welcome to the board jesscia091384,


Maybe you could go to counseling together and see a financial advisor. If you really want to leave him, get a place where you can live and just move out. It will be hard, but you have to remember everything that he has done to you.

Hi there jessica,


This man does sound like he has some of the characteristics of a sociopath.


A friend of mine is close to a sociopath.

A sociopathic individual is truly complex and has many powers of manipulation and persuasion as you yourself have said. It can be enormously confusing to be with someone like this, as when he is good and loving it can be hard to believe this other side of his exists. You need professional help to deal with this situation, especially as you are pregnant now. It can take awhile to become clear about what's going on, and to develop the strength to do what is healthy and appropriate for you. I strongly urge you to get to a good therapist who can guide you in the many complex issues that will arise both emotionally and in terms of everyday life choices. This is no time to fool around. Your well being is at stake.


Best wishes,

So the last few days he had someone of a breakdown. He admits he is sociopathic but says he was never diagnosed because he FEELS LOVE.


I told him I wanted it to
