[QUOTE=golden_eve;6524788]THANK YOU!!!!

Yes, that's me indeed!
LOL, I supposed it does seem odd that I am even on PC during my vacation! We cannot do a lot of physical activity due to my fiance/soon to be husband's current injuries, so we're laying low. And that gives me oodles of time! And I have this crazy compulsion to help people! lol.
I don't want to hijack your thread though!!
You seem most wise! That's smart not to give $$ to strangers and through charities instead.
And yes, we must be protective of ourselves. I've learned that the hard way.
I hope you are feeling a little better about your friend? I give you a lot of credit for seeing the truth and for putting your foot down about what you will and will not accept! Kudos!!!!

Wait, I thought you said you were on your honeymoon. Did you do as I did and take your honeymoon before the wedding???

Sorry to hear your guy's not mobile. I am curious about what's up but can understand why you want your privacy around that.
Every time I get in my truck and drive somewhere I am talking to and cursing out my so-called friend. I feel so hurt. I know she does, too, even if it is what I call narcissistic injury. But there's no way to resolve it because she NEVER meets me halfway and I am standing my ground. No more walking all the way across the whole field to meet her while she stands on the other side like a queen. I am so pissed and hurt but standing my ground.
I don't care that you are hijacking this thread. I would much rather talk about weddings and honeymoons and rasta earrings (I am wearing mine right now in your honor) and the Met Gala (Gaga was outrageous) then narcissists. One thing about narcissists is that they keep you in a tight little dark box. That's not my style. I am much more feral and wild! I like freedom of thought, freedom of expression, freedom of humor. Narcs hate all that. Not enough control.
So yes I am confused as to whether or not your wedding comes after the honeymoon. That's how we did it. My now-ex also got angry because I wanted to smoke ganja on the beach. (He was a narcissist control freak.) and I am like, "Every other person we pass is offering it. I mean here it's like praying together. It's offensive turning it down."
As for this thread, hijack away. Why should we let the narcissist dominate and spoil the fun. That's what they always do. In fact, my so-called friend got angry because she knows I go on Psych Central and talk about her. Well, this is my community! She's not a joiner and wouldn't join an online community.
Is the food good where you are? I remember the coffee...with brown cane sugar. I loved it. We had toast and papaya every morning with that amazing coffee. We loved the tropics so much we joined Peace Corps and went to the South Pacific. So we extended the honeymoon for over a year. Such a blast. Such fantastic memories.
