My ex-wife absolutely several sharply divided, discrete personalities:
The child: baby voice, clutching hands beckoning me to hold her, childish sobbing if she was in any degree of physical pain, and above all, terrified of being alone... .**Rescue me**
Yes, I think most of them had that side. My waifs had this very strongly and the other one exhibited some signs of that too... .but lesser.
The haughty queen: assumed an authoritarian voice to anyone whom she perceived as "beneath" her--waiters, maids, employees, any service-workers... .
There was a TINY bit of that one in one of the ones I was with... .
The cold, heartless zombie: staring at me with dead eyes, oblivious to my pain, utterly incapable of empathy... .
Yeah, I saw that side too. I mistook it for calmness but that's really what it was, lack of empathy and distance.
The sparkling, euphoric, charming little girl-woman: this is what seduced me. Over-the-top bubbling happiness, incredibly sexy. Wonderful with children and animals.
Yeah two of the ones I'd known had this side.
One of them had this serene, euphoric smile, that is the first thing that seduced me. I also read somewhere that bulimic women get this smile. In any case, I thought it was charming back then and unlike anything I have ever seen before. Of course, I was right about the latter but it wasn't anything good.
Creepily there was no overlap. She was only one of these present at a time. The worst mistake of my life was not leaving on our first date when she was an hour-and-a-half late. My downfall was my own KISA and co-dependent tendencies.
Yeah, mine cycled to manipulate me. If the child didn't work, she would try the zombie, if the zombie failed, she would try the child. Whatever works.
