How can you survive an affair of your spouse and save your self respect?

  • If this is a one time affair your spouse has had then 'to err is human' and if they are remorseful you have a greater chance of saving your marriage. Instead of worrying about your self respect realize that percentages of affairs between married couples is high and that you are not the only person dealing with this problem. Take the bull by the horns and let your spouse know that you are not putting up with another affair and the both of you should seek counseling. The Counselor is not there to blame one or both partners, but to give the couple tools to help them through their marriage problems. Keep your head high because you were not the one that cheated and no matter how high the statistics of one spouse cheating on another it is still unacceptable in society. If your spouse has cheated more than once then pack then you are far better to file for divorce because the statistics are high they will cheat again.

Why are we who dwell with a narcissistic spouse rendered so speechless and confused when he so loudly and convincingly presents the case that it isn't him being selfish and controlling but you instead?

Go to therapy together and let the therapist decide who has the problem. I don't know, but I have been there many, many times. I suggest you get far, far away from the narcissist to think it over. Whatever that narcissist says to you, I believe it's him being selfish and controlling, I believe it's NOT you. This behavior you are describing is classic narcissist. The only solution is to stop responding and ignore him. Once you stop being his source of narcissic supply, he will go away to find greener pastures. Or if you can possibly manage it, you be the one to leave. It's called projection. My father is a narcissist and that's one of his most re-curring patterns--to accuse the other of exhibiting His undesirable behavior. Usually he will do this after he has raged over the top and been confronted. ANY time he is confronted he will PROJECT and accuse you of what he's guilty of. I know it sounds excessive to use words like "never" or "always" but in this case I can say he truly never takes responsibility for his actions. He will do anything to avoid this. I wish someone would post a new thread specific to the subject of narcissistic projection. It is fascinating. It is so absurd, of course you are left bewildered and speechless. I have a suspicion based on observing my father all these years, that the reason for this projection is that he carries so much frustration and ineptitude in his life (although he is the boss, he is really so dependent on others, he can't get through the day without people constantly doing things for him, and I'm sure he covers up his inadequacies with anger/aggression rather than appear vulnerable) that he has to relieve his frustrations by taking it out on you. This must be a Very big need and it goes hand in hand with his unwillingness to ever be wrong or accept responsibility. Coupled with other volatile feelings of rage, self-righteousness, and a desparate will never to Be the very ugly things they in fact are--they're all too eager to push all that vitrol onto you. For example, my father will throw a tantrum, force you to abide by his will and if you dare to say no or stand up for yourself he will take that and twist it around, accusing the victim of his blowups of being the disagreeable one..He will even accuse you of shouting at him even though you have not (to justify his outbursts). It does seem insane and that is why you are at a loss for words...really there is nothing you can do to communicate with someone like this...The funny thing is, my father is Happy and whistling after his outbursts have been projected successfully onto another person! This is the pattern, and I would be interested to know if this is a pattern common to many... 1. Get's frustrated, impatient, aggressive 2. Tantrum 3. Either a. Projection (accuses the victim of the very behavior he just exhibited!) or b. Blames victim for making him angry.

If you agreed to split property in the divorce and your husband stops paying for his car what can you do to keep yourself from being charged for it?

The divorce decree has NOTHING to do with the contract between the lender and whomever signed it. IF your name is on the contract, you will be responsible for the balance due until it is paid in full or discharged by B/K. The first thing to TRY is get possession of the car and sell it.

Why do guys want to play the field when they know they have something good standing right in front of them and is it low self-esteem?

Yes, it probably is low self esteem they feel better knowing lots of woman want to date them. They also feel obligated as a virile young man to "put it around" instead of settling down. Most men grow out of it, some don't, you don't want to be caught up in a relationship with a so-called "player" as they wont have any regard for your feelings. Also it often takes a while to see whats right in front of you. Who knows how long it will take him to realize what he missed out on? One thing is for sure he will one day..whether it will be ten days from now or even ten years...More often than not guys won't settle when they are young. They feel the need to experience women and fulfill their manhood. So it's part self-esteem, part selfishness and part immaturity.

How can you end a relationship where you are being verbally abused constantly if you have no self esteem left?

That is part of the control mechanism abusers have over their victims; making them feel as if they useless, trapped and are good for nothing. It's not true! Get mad! Realize this person is using "mind altering effects" on you. They don't realize it, but they are. Also realize the "abuser." These people have either come from an abused family environment or they are just plain mean to the bone. Whether the person physically or verbally abuses they do so to their mate because they know they can't get away with it out in society. They are actually weak in themselves and IT'S THEM that has the low self esteem. They feel they are "put upon" by society and that they never get a break out there. They will never take responsibility for their own actions and always blame others. In the privacy of one's home it is so easy for an abuser to manipulate not only his girlfriend/wife or kids, it's just plain fair game. This is what you have to do: Without him knowing it, you are going to have pack your bags and hide them. Then go to a friends (one you can trust) or a family member, and phone the "Women's Abuse Center." If you can't find that number then phone your local "Mental Health" and they will lead you into the right direction. I hope, this is what you want and that once you leave this person you won't want to go back. Of course it is going to be scary for the first few months, but trust me, there are so many people such as yourself and so much help out there. There is group therapy sessions, they also will go to court with you if you want free legal help to get a "cease and desist order" against the abuser and you have your rights to half of everything you both have together even if you live common-law. Be strong! Know you weren't at fault. When we meet someone we don't know them 100% and they can be sweet as pie at the beginning, but once you live with them or marry them they can change almost over-night. It is nothing to be ashamed of, but, you are letting yourself down badly if you don't use all the strength you can muster up and get out of there. Pack that bag, phone that Women's Abuse Center and get out of there! Don't ever look back, and don't feel guilty. Good luck Marcy

Why does an abusive man try to break down your personality and social life and self-esteem?

I call this "the web" in others words the old quote "said the spider to the fly." The first thing an abusive man does when he has your confidence is to alienate you from family and friends because he wants total control of you and he doesn't want you telling tales behind his back as to how he treats you. These men know abuse is wrong, but they are sick, need help and most of them never get it or want to get it. What he is doing is brain-washing you. He is stripping you of your own identity by not allowing you to have a social life and making sure he brain-washes you into the fact you are a useless lump and can't get along without him. Of course you're not, so stay strong and kick this guy to the curb and move on. There are Abuse Women's Service in your town and I suggest you seek them out for help. They will give you the tools to know your legal rights and to help you in anyway they can. Good luck Merry Christmas Marcy Stalkers and the Borderline Personality The Borderline Personality In recent years psychologists have learned about and done case studies on a new personality disorder which the DSM-III-R classifies as an Axis II disorder- the Borderline Personality . This classification includes such personality disorders as the Anti-social Personality, the Histrionic Personality and the Narcissistic Personality. Several psychologists (including myself) diagonosed my stalker as afflicted with the Borderline Personality. Characteristic of the Borderline (derived from research done by Kreisman & Straus, 1989) are: a shaky sense of identity sudden, violent outbursts oversensitivity to real or imagined rejection brief, turbulent love affairs frequent periods of intense depression eating disorders, drug abuse, and other self-destructive tendencies an irrational fear of abandonment and an inability to be alone Not much research has been done on the Borderline Personality, and for many years it was difficult to diagnose- and to treat. A Borderline often feels as though his/her life is marked with a distinctive emptiness; a void in which a relationship often acts to fill. Many times the Borderline is a victim of an early dysfunctional family situation and/or emotional/physical abuse by those he/she trusted early on in childhood. The Borderline is psychotic , in the original, psychological meaning of the term: he/she is not in control and not in touch with reality. To the Borderline, a softly spoken word of advice can be construed as a threat on his/her emotional stability. An outsider's viewpoint that the Borderline is not in touch with reality often ends in a bitter and irrational dissassociation from the outsider on the part of the Borderline. Often, the Borderline ends up very much alone and victim to his/her disillusions. The Borderline stalker is very apt to see his/her actions as perfectly justified; he/she has paranoid disillusions which support these-often with disturbing frequency. The Borderline often has brief love affairs which end abruptly, turbulently and leave the Borderline with enhanced feelings of self-hatred, self-doubt and a fear that is not often experienced by rational people. When the Borderline's relationships turn sour, the Borderline often begins to, at first, harass the estranged partner with unnecessary apologies and/or apologetic behavior (i.e. letters of apology 'from the heart', flowers delivered at one's place of employment, early morning weeping phonecalls, etc.). However, the Borderline does not construe his/her behavior as harassment- to the Borderline he/she is being 'responsible' for his/her past behaviors. The next phase of the Borderline Personality develops relatively quickly and soon he/she feels suddenly betrayed, hurt, etc. and seeks to victimize the estranged partner in any way he/she can Strangely enough, this deleterious behavior is always coupled with a need to be near or in constant contact with the estranged partner . While sending threats to the estranged partner, it is very common for the Borderline to begin to stalk his/her estranged partner in an effort to maintain contact. This effort is motivated by the excruciating fear that the Borderline will end up alone and anger that [the estranged partner] has put him/her in this position. We are finding, in many cases, that a great deal of stalking behavior is associated with Borderline or related personality disorders. Earlier research did not incorporate the Borderline Personality in stalking profiles; research now is beginning to focus on the Borderline in such disorders as Erotomania, etc.

How do you develop personality?

Answer

Better do meditations.

Answer

You can develop a better personality by forgetting about yourself. You think of how others feel in any situation you find yourself. You talk about what the other person likes to talk about, you listen more than you talk, you never talk about others who are not present unless it's something positive. Interest in others can't be faked, so if you're sincere about developing your personality, you have to be sincere about your interest in others.

Everyone finds people that they don't really like. Don't let this deter you. Even if the best you can do is be courteous to those people, do that. A secret to feeling positive about these people is, the second that you catch yourself judging something about them, stop immediately and deliberately think of what could be positive about them even if it's something small. Everyone has talents and abilities; make an effort to figure out theirs might be. If you never figure it out, it doesn't matter as long as you've overcome the negative thoughts about them and how YOU feel about them. They're not here to please you or fit into a mold that you design for them.

Practicing these skills is especially helpful when you're feeling bad or mad or upset about something. If you have self esteem problems, it may take some practice to get beyond your own feelings but the more you do it the more natural it becomes; the next thing you know, you won't be feeling quite so self conscious anymore.

The last, and probably most important part of this process, is to be sure that you don't let people take advantage of you. Being thoughtful or kind has no relationship to currying favor with others, bending over backwards, or believing that it will please someone else if you participate in something negative, like gossip. It's an easy mistake to make, but it will defeat your positive efforts and do more to hurt your self esteem than help anyone.

Unfortunately, this is a lifelong process. Because we're human, we have a natural tendency to think of everything in relation to oneself and how we feel. But you can renew your efforts anytime and as often as you want. Time spent considering others is never wasted (well, almost never).

If you could design your career path what would it look like?

How do you manage complex and difficult situations in relation to people?

Basically,Your reply is depend upon the situation and seriosness of issues like lobour problem,safety or company's facilities or working conditions or atmosphere.I would prefer to ask back the situation to the interviewer.
