The issue i have with mine we are both very stubborn people im addicted to her and she is addicted to me like we are heroin to each other. Sooner or later we go though withdraw ( more so on her end) and we come back for a fix ( again mostly on her end when i get my fix i dont want it to end when she gets her fit she is set for a time and feels she can quit it). When she leaves i go withdraw right away she takes longer ( also trys to fill the need for it with other men but it never works the same) So sooner or later i will reach out ( and almost always get kicked for it) or she will (which i try to say no and stand strong but never do cause once again im addicted) we play alittle cat and mouse with each other then we get the fix and the cycle repeats.

Know why they don't know they are crazy?
THEY DO NOT WANT TO KNOW. It would be too much reality for them to deal with.
I think this is what it is. They've spent their whole lives repressing and denying. And this includes denying the fact that they are somehow mentally disordered. It would be too emotionally overwhelming for them to realize that what little sense of self they have, is defective.
