Chapter 25 Warning- A Christian Single’s Dating Disaster:
Narcissism And Other Personality Disorders
The Dependent Personality Disorder
around and be sure he goes into the personnel department and fills
out applications, or he may take in a movie instead. He is dead set
against doing what someone else begs him to do, but he will never kick
and scream or even raise his voice. He simply won’t do what you ask
him to do. His aggressiveness is quiet, but he is determined to take a
passive stance. But if his access to money is cut off, he can just as
easily decide for himself that he must find work. Here again, tough
love is what it will take to make a willing, working partner in your
marriage. It is time for a confession: Guess what Grandma did before
my illness became full blown pancreatitis? I told my relative (who was
taking care of me at the time) that I would fill out as many job
applications as I could, but I went to the library every day, instead,
and spent all day, reading and listening to music!! My favorite song
was Scott Joplin’s “The Entertainer” by Marvin Hamlisch. It
allowed me to escape all my problems and I drifted away, dreaming of
the time when Scott Joplin lived, (1867-1917) and I pictured couples
dancing to this wonderful old Ragtime song. I got lost in a dream
world, which was far more pleasant than job hunting! That was my way
of being passive-aggressive and it was a disgusting way to weasel out
of looking for work. I’m still ashamed of myself, and I pulled this
scam 25 years ago! I also had the opportunity to habitually lie to
them (about job hunting) and was a short term pathological liar!!!
When I did find a job I only lasted a month because my illness
worsened . They say that confession is good for the soul, and I do
feel better, but I never could tell my relative what I did. Some
things are better left unsaid, don’t you think? No?
