I’ve been reading the threads lately and I can’t help but think that perhaps I’m also a little narcissistic.
I’ll give you and example I’ll be honest I’m a little jealous of my partners relationship with his parents because the relationship I had was awful. I will never do anything I just think to myself I wish I had this and feel sad. I am happy because it made him the man I love. I wish everyone else’s parents where mine who have nice supportive families. I like to be in their company as they are nice to me, it feels nice.
Or another example. Me and a colleague had a baby at the same time. She has sisters and a mum who does anything to help, she posts lots of Facebook images. I really feel the sting of that as I do not have that. I don’t want that for my children but it’s so unfair I didn’t have that.
