my point wasn't to advocate it. or remotely suggest it.

it was to show, how narcissism can poison a person's life, and make them do things, perhaps they might never consider.

not justifying it. not looking up to her.

that is, if he is narcissist. it just makes me read these stories a little differently now. like the burning bed. a woman who was abused for years, set her house on fire, and killed her husband in it. not wise. not moral. not in the least.

but, it shows that abusers sometimes mess with the wrong people. and it shows the mind of a battered woman.

did this dentist abuse her own authority and power? absolutely. but again, who knows the particulars, but i no longer judge people 'who go off the deep end,' as nuts, and stalkers, and couldn't get over ''that one guy.''

no. i doubt that happened here. normal sane people don't do this, over a simple break up. the fact that the guy still sought her, showed perhaps that she felt helpless. i say perhaps, for we don't know.

it's a hunch, but if she was dealing with a malignant narc...she might have just lost it. and i don't judge her as i might have once judged her, now seeing the damage narcissists/psychopaths do to the minds of their prey.

yes, that's it, really. they take you to points of no return. this was calculated, so she's getting jail time. not a knee jerk reaction, or self defense. so, in HIS defense, of course she is the wrong one.

it's so surreal. i would have read this normally, and thought...oh my what a crazy woman! she's nuts!

i don't justify hurting someone physically, unless it's in self defense. but, now, i just view things differently.

who knows, maybe he was not a narc. but, doubtful any sane person would be that enraged to pull someone's entire mouthful of teeth out, just because they broke up. lol sorry, i think this dude was a narcissist, and probably pushed her to the brink.

the sheer fact that guy would still 'use' her as his dentist...after the breakup. i mean, clearly she didn't take the break up well. and you still show up and ask her to to be your dentist? i think she should have said, you need to find a new dentist, but she decided to exact revenge.

not advisable. for sure. but, the story made me giggle a bit, as to...they do get karma at some point.

lol

in all seriousness, NOT the way to handle things. But, I read it, and in my pre-understanding-narcissism days, i might think SHE was the one who was nuts. But, i guarantee this was the LEAST he deserved. lol

as an aside...his teeth will most likely look like chicklets (the gum), if they're ALL fake. lol
