How do you feel about...?
I'd appreciate mature responses from people who have actually experienced this type of nonsense - please and thank you! =)
Answers:
Sounds like you've been observing my EX WIFE! And I am SERIOUS! You have described her to a "T"!
It's not "mental illness" (that's a misconception anyway! There really is no such thing! "Illness" is ORGANIC, and the "mental" process has to do with the MIND, not THE BRAIN!); this is about LIFE CHOICES! And that's why, rather than "sickness", what you're describing is SIN! Lying and deception, and doing things at OTHERS expense is SELFISHNESS, and it is MORALLY WRONG! When God said, "Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor." He meant it! This is a very SERIOUS offense, so much so, that His word declares that "ALL liars shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone, which is the second death." (Revelation 21:8)
My ex is so bitter, and she has gotten into this deadly game of marrying a guy more than TWICE her age (that she was committing adultery with BEFORE the divorce!) and it was for his money! (Long story! And no, she isn't "Anna Nicole Smith" back from the dead! LOL!)
And she is dragging our kids down this path of destruction
.I haven't seen them in almost a year and a half (she has custody), and we are going to court to get that taken care of (modify the divorce decree).but I found out she is trying to make ME look bad to them, poisoning their hearts and minds against THEIR OWN FATHER; and also, due to her deception, this has resulted in HIS own kids and grandkids being estranged from him!
We lost our youngest child (age 2) in 2003, and before that, we were having problems, so all this is a REAL MESS, taking its toll (like usual) in OUR CHILDREN! I'm just glad that my expectaion and hope in all this isn't in myself or "the system"!
My response to all this? PRAY! And look to GOD'S WORD, THE BIBLE! If you are a Christian (saved by Jesus Christ), you can be confident knowing that GOD really is "in control", and HE misses NOTHING! What people like this end up doing is SHOOTING THEMSELVES in the foot! Because God has a way of making things happen, of "rearranging" and INTERRUPTING our plans when we DO WRONG!
Even though I HATE what is happening, I can stand on this promise: "And we know that ALL things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose...If God be for us, who can be against us?" (Romans 8:28,31). And I KNOW that He really will work all this out and make things RIGHT! No one gets away with ANYTHING! She can continue LIVING A LIE, but down the road, it will come back to "bite" her! Like Moses said, "And be sure your sin will find you out." (Numbers 32:23) Like they say, "It all comes out in the wash."
not totally mental illness but i guess some behavioral problems or attitude.. i know someone like this.
I think it is really a sign of very low self esteem. If they have to make things up to seem like a wonderful person, they must have a very low opinion of themselves. It is extremely irritating.. I am in nursing school and have some classmates that fit this profile. I wouldn't necessarily call this a mental illness.. but it could be, or a symptom of a mental illness.. like a manic episode of bipolar disorder perhaps..
I usually grit my teeth and say nothing but nod. I usually don't give them the response they are looking for.. which may not be a way to make friends and win people.. lol. To be honest, I go about my own business and try to avoid them as best as possible. Confronting them really doesn't work.. the situation "somehow" gets turned around and you become the bad guy.
My mantra with people like this has been something I learned in childhood "If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all". I am polite but try to not be drawn into conversation.
Hope I could be of some help!
I lived with a woman just like that and she was so good at it she Had my friend's thinking i was sum kind of jerk ! The worst part of it is my friend's new me for many year's ! only new here for a couple of month's, but like most phonies she got found out and i got a lot of SORRY'S , I said i told you guy's and girl's . But most people have to find out the hard way . Needless to say I'm not with her anymore !!
Yep, I have experienced this non-sense,from the father of my two sons.He was diagnosis with Manic -Depression.
He went to Counseling for one Month at Charter Hospital.
He always had to make you look bad and himself look
great.He lied and cheated on me.I finally divorced him.
He was mean to me and others at times.He had a violent temper too.Yes, I think it's a mental illness.Meds help.
Some times i thought he had a demon inside his self.
These type of people belittle other people to make themselves look great,they also talk about people so bad including friends and family,I know alot of people like this,and you know what I did I stay away far away,I stop calling,answering calls,going to see them etc,becuase when you do good they will be so jealous and can bring you down,and try to take away what you have worked really hard for,and laugh behind your back when you fail in life.these type of people are not good people to be around it can be very dangerous,I'm telling you from experience with them,I happen to attract these type of people.They will use you for your advice to get themselves on top and won't return the favor to you,they enjoy you hitting rock bottom.stay far away from them you deserve better,and don't feel bad if this is a family member just stay away until they can make a change,or you are able to talk to them and let them know how you feel,if they are still in denial after you talk to them stay far far away becuase you know in your heart you tried to give them a second chance.
i personally know a few like that,,cannot stand bull sh------rs,and liars ! i strongly beleive if you can`t speak the honest truth,,then shut the h----l up.solution----avoid them ?..
I have def expirienced this type of person
they live to put people down, and act like they are everything
it makes me sick really,
ignore it if possible, because addressing them may just make themself feel better about it
and Lord knows they will not admit they have a problem, because that is the first step to solving one
