Prison is an example of behavior modification... a shitty one, but still...
Prison isn't behaviour modification it's a consequence of getting caught. It will modify behaviour by ensuring one doesn't get caught next time. LOL
One problem with prison is all the fucking therapy . It just teaches socio/psychs how to do a better job hiding.
A high functioning, highly intelligent SP will generally self-check his/her behaviour as they are pretty attuned to avoid negative consequences for themselves. Consequences for others not so much because they simply don't care.
To elaborate more on the situation: He constantly lies to make himself appear "super". Claims he was an Army Ranger, isn't. Claims he has lots of money; he doesn't. He will make stories up to his girlfriends of who he is and then go crazy if the girl spends a moment with me-afraid I will find out his lie or tell his girl the truth. How do I know this??? He asked me to care for him! He gave me medical and financial power of attorney when he asked me to take over his life because he had "made a mess" his words ! He is divorced, lost his house because he never made a payment.. I pay all his bills with his money. I found him a place to live and get all his mail and deal with his life on a daily basis. I want to tell him I know but I honestly don't know what that will do? I am asking for all the help and honesty you can dish out.
He loves to listen to people and hear their weakness and then prey on it. I have seen it time and time again. He has done it to me so many times. Becomes mean and bitter until I bite back!
I see someone's med.s are wearing off - sigh.
Amore: this sounds like a really fucking weird set up you got going on with this guy? What's in this for you? Is he family?
He does not sound like an SP at all. He is a pathological liar but no SP would relinquish control like that.
Do you want to help for real (and help yourself at the same time)? Don't enable his little con jobs by covering for him with these women. That makes no sense.
He dated my daughter for a very brief time and came to my husband and I with a sad story (found out later it was lies) that he didn't talk to his family because they hated him. I think he targeted me to take care of him because I own my own spa and he thought I could handle is money situation. He was in a great relationship but with a girl but she had 2 great parents and was educated. He lied and told her he worked during the day, would hang a tie on the kitchen chair!. He is with a girl now that has no family and has taken total control of her life. Manipulates her to do whatever he wants.
If he needs professional help, encourage him to consult a professional not substitute you:
1. charge him $50 rent/day to take up space in your house or your life
2. charge him $10-20 for consulting hours for listening or managing his problems
Either you will get rich off this guy or he will leave you alone and go elsewhere
You are not paid enough to be his counselor and not licensed for what he needs.
