Hi honeybee777, thanks for answering my questions! It sounds like HPD can be very challenging to live with, has the help you've been getting been effective at all?(yes I know, more questions lol. )

Well ok lets see question one, there are time when i notices Im beign shallow and its only because Iv e seen other people really caring , so then I learn ok Im being shallow, but do I really KNOW IT not at all, It completely oblivious to me! Like take for exp, my daughter she huts, scraped her knee, NOW going to parenting classes tell me I should do " things " to make her better, so i do them, BUT It can get very irratating for em at times.
Interesting, is it like you're unconsciously "testing" people to see if they really care or not? Also, with your daughter do you ever feel empathy towards her even if it's "shallow"?

Two why Am I uncomfortable when im not center of attention, well i do one of two things, go get it else where, or try to find out why, actually Im not really sure, probally my shallowness kicking in LOL!
It might do you some good to look at why you have that need to be the center of attention. Maybe if you figure it out you can work with yourself a bit better eh?

three Am I aware that im ebign dramatic, idk, not really, I will be told from others that I am, But i feel what i feel so what can you do?
I'm wondering what other people consider "dramatic" or "shallow"... because like you said you feel what you feel.

Do I purposly manipulate well, it depends on the situation, I can, but i try not to manipulate, i think its more of an unconscious thing. What led me to get help was my affair i had on my husband....he new something was wrong with me
Do you feel guilty/remorseful if you manipulate people? I'm glad you're getting help, I hope that your relationships start going more smoothly for you. Again, thanks for answering my questions.
