Holy **** - They DO Come Back Years Later!!!!

I never, ever believed it would happen to me.

About 15 years ago, I got involved with a guy I can now see was a narcissist - fifty times worse than my ex; I'd take my ex over this guy any day, which should tell you something. He played me for about seven or eight months and was cruel as anything you can imagine - the only thing I didn't get was physically abused. The last time we spoke, he screamed at me to quit calling him, get out of his life, leave him alone, don't ever speak to him again. And I did. I was devastated - I'd had absolutely no idea what had happened. It took a long time to get over it, but I eventually came to recognize him as a "dark entity" (those of you who have ever read any of psychic Sylvia Browne's books will recognize that term :-) Now I also recognize him as a narcissist, maybe even worse.

Today, I logged into FB and found a friend request from him. I was absolutely stunned. I clicked to his page to see what was going on and saw that he'd stared his page maybe a week or two ago and so far had only a handful of friends. I didn't recognize any names, just a few of his family members by last name alone.

Why the HELL did he think to look up ME, of all people, and request me as one of his starter friends???

I'll sit on the request for a few days, leave him waiting and hanging and wondering and hoping, and then I'll reject it. Although I have to admit I'm extremely curious to see what he's been up to in his life. But I won't give in.

Maybe because my treatment at the hands of my ex was so mild compared to most of the stories I read here, I've always been hesitant to view my ex as "evil." Not this other guy. It would be like inviting the devil to waltz right into my life and make himself at home.

What on EARTH was he thinking requesting me all these years later?????? After everything he did????? After what he last told me?????
