Researchers at Yale University developed studies to answer the question: Do babies have a sense of right and wrong? What they came up with may surprise you.

    @ skylar, well I can’t say you sound real happy about it.
    Are you just with him to continue your research?

    Dear skylar you said:

    “I like him, for one.
    He’s very interesting. super hi IQ. don’t feel comfortable discussing it online. wish I could, sorry.”

    I am very concerned about the fact that you are uncomfortable writing about your obviously very nice likeable new acquaintance. Especially the fact that he has a high IQ 😉 ! (is he bragging about? Even “inadvertently” hinting to you WHAT A CATCH HE IS??)

    My X has invented a new branch in Maths, my former boss was TOO HONEST to become professor (instead of him stupid ones got promoted…), and my father was a GENIOUS in being a lawyer, each of them were TOO humble to point out these facts DIRECTLY, but made hints so I could not help but notice what wonderful brains were talking to me. They are all highly toxic people for me, but made me having my jaw dropped at the time in awe that THEY were even noticing ME, and were allowed to put me down (as I was already way below them, it was a mere pointing to me my place in respect towards them, no PUT DOWN).

    Please revise the list of April 12th this year; I am quite sure you will find him there 🙁 .The qualities each of them seem to point out to a perfect mate, but if it is ALL of it and TOO MUCH, then it is a big red flag. Take care! (((Hugs)))

    If it SOUNDS too good to be true, it typically is.

    Dear Skylar,

    QUOTES:

    I think he’s schizoid”

    He LIES and keeps secrets”

    I don’t have much privacy”

    And he is “interesting,” WHY? You LIKE him WHY?

    Come on sweetcakes, You know better than to play with FIRE! So why are you coming here and telling us you are messing with it? He doesn’t have to be a GOOD LIAR to be a psychopath. Some of them are pith poor liars!

    You know I am blunt and you are right, I agree with you, you have come 360 degrees, back to messing with a psychopath.

    Skylar….”He’s very interesting. super hi IQ.”

    Honey…this does not sound right. First…high IQ…are you sure? Before I knew about sociopaths, I let my ex know my test score thru my local behavioral health program (for disabled adults looking for employment health). Mine were the highest they had ever tested for, and I was surprised and kind of proud…so were my social workers.

    “Oh, yes…they told me that, too.” he said. I never questioned it. Why should I? I’m just an honest soul trying to better my life.

    Now I look back, and HE WAS PARROTING ME. Be careful, please.

    Oh, yeah. I had the computer print-outs in my hand…I never saw his. I would never think that he would LIE to me.

    Skylar,

    This seems to be an issue we have all dealt with. Mine said he only had one semester of college left and didn’t finish. I find out later that it was less than 2 years. Not really sure how much college he has had.

    Also, spathy talks about how he has the best record in the company, don’t know if that’s true or not. Also he got in trouble with human resources and I’m not sure if the reason he told me was fact or fiction.

    Really, if they continuously lie, something is wrong. It shows a pattern of behavior that is suspect. Hope we’re wrong about your new guy, but I don’t think so.

    Hello? Sorry if i don’t post every damn day. If you had Aspergers and anxiety and depression and everyone ignored you because a regular poster wanted you to…’oh…you must forgive that this person raped you and raped your whole life and tried to destroy you and you must forgive’ does not fit in with your lovely everyday posting.

    I will not forgive, and if you want to go tattle to Donna, so be it. Where else do I have to go? I have been so hurt and deceived, and i have no where else to go.
