[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 378435, member: 1991"] I've had dealings recently with a woman (a client who also has befriended me) who sounds a lot like your mother. My 'friend' is incredibly egocentric. For years I've excused much of what she does because of the crud that happened to her growing up (I published her autobiography for her so I know the story in detail) but her latest behaviour - there is no excuse. I went online and did one of those personality disorder tests on her out of curiosity - it lit up like a Christmas tree. Narcissistic personality disorder, histrionic personality disorder and a few others. Your mother reminds me of my friend. The last time I spoke to my friend, she told me that if I pursued a certain course of action which I planned, she would of course have to cut off all communication with me. I do not respond to blackmail. I have not heard from her since. I am happy with this. My life is far less complicated. And if she wants her book to go into reprints, she has a lot of grovelling to do... Marg [/QUOTE]
