I know no one can give a diag or anything, but I was wondering what you all thought about something. I was thinking it might be co-dependency, but not all of the points fit this person...so here are their issues and see what you think. I know you don't know this person, but it could really help if I have an idea of what to look for or what areas to have them explore til they can afford a T.

- always in relationships where they are "needed"
- They don't express their own emotions
- They put everyone above themselves
- they are quick to say they are wrong, even when they aren't just to keep arguments at bay.
- They don't get angry at all....seriously

Thats all I can think of ATM, but will add more as I think of it.

Thanks,
BJ

ok i'm sure you'll get lots of different opinions that will be totally different to what i'm gonna say but...maybe very low self-esteem?

you know, that was one I didn't even really think of. Hmmmm I'll have to think about it. It sorta fits that person a bit, though

It really does sound like co-dependency actually.

I dont know about the co-dependency thing. But this person has very very low self esteem. I hope they can get some help and realize how valuable and important they are! Good luck Any Ideas on this? Any Ideas on this?

Thanks for the responses. I think it could be either one because both seem to fit. Heck, it could be both and this person is going to have tons to work on!

Thanks again.
