I think perhaps some people are drawn to soicopaths because they want to change them, own them, mould them into their image....it takes 2 people to tango...I find as much as people do not wish to believe this that a co-dependent is as much in need of help and understanding as the narcissist? ...we are 2 people in a relationship and each bring something into it, be that good or bad...

Mouse you are right, it is not just about his narc tendencies, it is also about codependency on both of our parts. I think that has been a factor in our relationship since day one... I think and realize after reading some posts in the abuse thread yesterday, that I am simply dysfunctional and my dysfunctional behavior is in itself not healthy for the relationship. My expectations, perfectionism, have skewed how I actually see and interpret things, as well as my paranoia, bp, and anxiety. That said, I think I really need to step back and take a hard look at myself, as opposed to constantly blaming him and my dd for everything that goes wrong. Perhaps it is just their way of dealing with me because of my bad behavior... Perhaps I am a hypocrit and just couldn't see it for all of the crap cluttering up my brain!
