I'm kind of disappointed that a few of the responses seemed a bit on the self-righteous side. MisterPaul acknowledges that he has NPD (which is a huge first step), and seems sincere in his desire to form mature, mutually beneficial relationships. While I have bipolar disorder, I know this is a place where I can share without worrying about being labeled harshly...bipolar disorder exists on a spectrum. I'm sure NPD does, too. Throwing stereotypes around, or labeling others based on your own experiences isn't really fair. Someone once said, "Judge not, lest ye be judged." I'm not a Christian, but that sounds about right to me.
