[A tree is erected in the library at the manor. Another is placed in the foyer. Both are professionally decorated and huge. The manor itself is decorated, as well, with garland, holly, lights, and bulbs. And when snow begins to fall and stick, passersby, those who like to trawl the lakeside mansions for photos, come and sit outside the gates to stare and photograph.

The carnival is decked out, as well, with a 30-foot Christmas tree in the main tent.]

I will have food provided on the 25th. If you wish to celebrate, it will be at the manor. Those at the carnival will be invited. You may invite whoever else you desire.

	Can you tell me what he's struggling with? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He has an ex-boyfriend who triggers him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Leena B/Damian W detached 2017-12-16 04:09 am UTC (link)
	Do you tell him what you tell me? That he doesn't have to talk to someone that makes him uncomfortable? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Leena B/Damian W heir 2017-12-16 04:11 am UTC (link)
	Yes, but he feels obligation and he is too [...] he does not have the self-preservation. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Leena B/Damian W detached 2017-12-16 04:14 am UTC (link)
	That's harder. [...] Have you asked him if there's a better way you can help him? Something different you can do? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Leena B/Damian W heir 2017-12-16 04:17 am UTC (link)
	I have informed this boy he is narcissistic and that he gaslights, but he does not seem to care. I have told Misha, he may have me present when they speak, if it is easier, for me to be grounding, et cetera, but this boy has propositioned me as well, so it makes it difficult, I suppose.

	Re: Leena B/Damian W detached 2017-12-16 04:20 am UTC (link)
	Do you want whatever he's offering? [...] I don't know what gaslighting is, but I'm pretty sure that narcissists don't care that they're narcissists. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Leena B/Damian W heir 2017-12-16 04:21 am UTC (link)
	No, and I informed him of this in no uncertain terms, Misha as well. And no, you are correct. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Leena B/Damian W detached 2017-12-16 04:22 am UTC (link)
	If a boy doesn't respect your choices, you have every right to punch him. Or I'll punch him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Leena B/Damian W heir 2017-12-16 04:26 am UTC (link)
	I will kill him if he tries anything. But, that is not the concern. The concern is he sows instability and dissent. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Leena B/Damian W detached 2017-12-16 04:52 am UTC (link)
	That's no good either. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Leena B/Damian W heir 2017-12-16 05:17 am UTC (link)
	Yes. So, he, Misha, gets upset. I was upset with Woods, at the time, and could not be as supportive as I ought. And my feelings seem to always trump his, in his mind. He will insist I not swallow my feelings, but he does so with his own. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Leena B/Damian W detached 2017-12-16 05:23 am UTC (link)
	Sometimes it's easier for other people to focus on helping others rather than helping themselves. Have you let Misha know that it bothers you when he does this? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Leena B/Damian W heir 2017-12-16 05:30 am UTC (link)
	Yes, but it is in his nature. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Leena B/Damian W detached 2017-12-16 05:42 am UTC (link)
	[...] Its okay if you have to take care of yourself first, so you can be more supportive of him. It's okay. It doesn't mean you're bad. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Leena B/Damian W heir 2017-12-16 05:51 am UTC (link)
	Even if he is always doing the same—taking care of me first, as well? No. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Leena B/Damian W detached 2017-12-16 05:56 am UTC (link)
	But is that what he wants? What he needs? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Leena B/Damian W heir 2017-12-16 06:01 am UTC (link)
	Wants, yes. Needs, I doubt it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Leena B/Damian W detached 2017-12-16 05:25 pm UTC (link)
	Sometimes you have to listen to what a person says they want, even if you think different. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Leena B/Damian W heir 2017-12-17 12:19 am UTC (link)
	Even if it seems destructive? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Leena B/Damian W detached 2017-12-17 01:44 am UTC (link)
	When I run, and I tell you not to follow, do you think its destructive if you don't come after me? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Leena B/Damian W heir 2017-12-17 02:42 am UTC (link)
	If you are going to hurt yourself, yes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Leena B/Damian W detached 2017-12-18 01:31 am UTC (link)
	Is he destructive? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Leena B/Damian W heir 2017-12-18 01:33 am UTC (link)
	Sometimes. He has sought out being beaten up before. And I do not mean a punch, I mean he was nearly killed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Leena B/Damian W detached 2017-12-18 01:49 am UTC (link)
	That's [...] not good. Does he ever not do something destructive? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
