Hey Pluto's Pride,

I feel like there's something there between us. I feel like I want her but at the same time, don't I deserve to be with someone who cares about my feelings? I care about other people's feelings. The problem is she's doing the things to me that I started to do to her when she came on too strong in the beginning and wouldn't leave me alone. At one point she asked me to lunch with her and a work friend, I said no, because I was tired of only seeing her at work, and it's always been downhll from there. That's when she started flirting with the other dude, and that's something I just couldn't get over. I realize she was trying to get a reaction from me, to see how much it would bother me. She's put a stop to flirting with other guys, but I just feel like she wants to get at me.

I was always able to take her crap, throw it right back at her, and she seemed to like it. But now that she's in this mode, I don't know. I've never met anyone like this who can change their personality so quickly. Maybe that's why I want to "win", I don't want to be destroyed by this girl. I want her to trust me, but at the same time I want to trust her.

Trying to apologize to her has just made it worse, before she was just giving me the silent treatment, now that I tried to talk to her I'm getting the bitch treatment.

I guess right now the best I can do is just not react at all. Obviously I can't be really nice to her at this point. I know she's trying to break me. And I don't want to let that happen. But then again, are those the actions of someone who cares about you?

Hey guys, I'll keep working on the patience, and trying to focus on other things than this girl, which right now is tough but I actually have other things in my life.

Today I got a hello with eye contact but only a mild look of disgust afterwards, and I saw her accidentally, since she left on purpose because she knew I was scheduled to be up there.

We're back to her parking near my car again (she usually parks on the other side of the building, closer to her office) and timing her exits so I can see her leave without acknowledging me. This one behavior is the worst, it's like she has to be the last thing I see before I go home. Is this going to be the day she looks over and says something? No. Patience.

I know that we will not talk until she's good and ready. I'm not going to chase after her, that's for sure. Maybe me pressuring her into talking to her in that email was too much for her. Just going to have to bide my time. If she wants to feel safe around me she'll have to put herself in a position to be around me and give me hints that she wants to talk. Even though I'm kind of attracted to this other girl, since the scorp has stopped flirting, I'm just going to have to stop flirting too. Which is HARD. I love to flirt and tease with all the women in the office, it just the way I communicate with them.

In my opinion she doesn't deserve that, your changing how you are as a person for her?...meaning she stopped flirting , so your going to stop, even though thats how you are as a person. I mean Stop going out of your way to hurt her and flirt making it obvious but if your a flirty guy, your not tied down..Dont try and change for someone who isn't showing there worthy of even that... Just my opinion

I hear you, JuiCy. I'm not going to change my personality. I might tone it down when she's around. Being flirtatious is just a part of my nature, literally can't help it. But no, I can't let someone else's games cause me to play games too. I am attracted to this new girl, but I admit I did flirt with her, directly in front of the other girl, just to see if I could get a reaction. I wanted to see some indicator of interest so I resorted to pulling out the big guns.

I'm getting a little freaked on office relationships. This non-relationship is weird enough. I guess what I'm saying is that I'm willing to let this new girl go, she has a kind of slutty saying on her car which I just saw, and that doesn't really do it for me.

She does need to let it go, but for whatever reason she can't or isn't ready yet. Either way my response can be the same. Friendly and courteous. Either happens or it doesn't.

Hmm...Scorpio or Histrionic Personality Disorder?

View of Others

Individuals with HPD experience others as powerful and capable in relation to their own sense of being a small, fearful, and defective child (McWilliams, 1994, p. 310). This view of themselves as less powerful allows these individuals to absolve themselves from responsibility for their own behavior and to engage in manipulative behavior with others to force attention and care-taking They will behave in a seductive and enticing manner until they are denied what they are seeking. Individuals with HPD become intensely angry toward others they see as withholding.

Individuals with HPD focus on others to the point that they obtain their own identity from those to whom they are attached. Yet the attention they focus on others does not allow them to gain understanding of others or to become effectively empathic. Their intense observation skills are dedicated to determining what behaviors, attitudes, or feelings are most likely to result in winning the admiration and approval of others. Essentially, these individuals watch other people watch them. Their actual focus is on how they are doing and how they are being received by others. As a result, they are not particularly effective in understanding how others are feeling. Individuals with HPD are inclined to define relationships with or connections to others as closer or more significant than they really are. They do not see when they are being humored or placated by people who may have lost patience with their relentless need for attention and the failure to relate in a genuine way. Others may eventually withhold their own efforts to relate to individuals with HPD once they become aware that there is no real attempt to connect -- rather there is a continuing demand to be attended to and admired. Basically, it is analogous to how well the actor or actress actually "knows" their audience beyond reading whether or not the performance is being well received.

The HPD failure to view others realistically is reflected by their difficulties in developing and sustaining satisfactory relationships. Individuals with HPD tend to have stormy relationships that start out as ideal and end up as disasters (Beck, 1990, p. 214). These individuals are unable to tolerate isolation; when alone, they feel desperate and are unable to wait for new relationships to develop gradually (Horowitz, Horowitz, ed., 1991, p. 4). They will idealize the significant other early in the relationship and often see the connection as more intimate than it really is. If the significant others begin to distance themselves from the incessant demands, individuals with HPD will use dramatics and demonstrativeness to bind these people to the relationship. They will resort to crying, coercion, temper tantrums, assaultive behavior and suicidal gestures to avoid rejection
