He never loved you.

This one is easy to answer.

When he approached you, he never thought about love, because he did not love you. He only thought about how he could take from you, until you were left a dried-out husk.

These types of NPD men are a dime a dozen.

He just told you that he loved you, and he led you on. He probably mentioned your future together, and even marriage.

I’m wondering about attachment and transference with the therapist and the idea of escape and fantasy? How much do you think your strong feelings, constant thoughts, desires to be with your therapist are a way to escape from your present life? I wonder if the transference serves another purpose than to show us our wounds and/or past experiences, but is a present coping strategy for managing what we don’t want to face (even if unconsciously) in the present—-current relationships, life circumstances, etc. Can anyone relate to this concept of escape in relation to their therapy relationship? How does this play out for you?
