So my husband has all 5 of these factors. His real father he never knew so there is a level of neglect there, then his adopted father continually cheated on his mother and his wives after her. He was sexually abused by his adoptive aunt from the time he was 5 until he turned 8 and his parents got divorced. His whole life his mother praised him for being do smart or so awesome at anything he ever did so he thinks he can do anything he wants. He cheated on me with multiple hookers 9 that I know of. He had sex when he was 13(that's when he says he lost his virginity) and had sex with many other girls after that. Only had three REAL girlfriends before me and he cheated on them all. I don't think he is narcissistic per say but I do believe he has a slightly higher confidence when it comes to his intelligence and his athleticism. He thinks he is smarter than everybody else and the way he explains himself to.me is, oh you would never understand. We just aren't on the same wave length. He talks to strippers about me as if they are on the same wave length as him. He will find any excuse for his addiction. So I guess my question is would it even be worth trying to fix our marriage if he has all five of these factors?
Hmmm...
