I don't mean someone who cut you off in traffic or forgot your birthday. I mean someone who can peg the DSM meter(Criteria below) You need not satisfy every one. They're the worst.
Got it? Anyone you know with this disorder?
For me, it's my girlfriend's mother. I won't bore you with everything; suffice it to say that nothing you do is ever good enough(or even the "right" thing). I've been criticized harshly for: --Bringing her brownies from the bakery --Visiting sick family members in the hospital --Attending the wake and funeral of my girlfriend's father(her husband; I actually got a "review")
Years ago, I was informed that she kept in regular touch with my girlfriend's ex-boyfriend. Then she wonders why I want nothing to do with her.
Today, I found out that she talks to his family too.
The ex died two years ago.
This is what I'm talking about.
Anyone else dealing with these loathsome individuals?

@uncalled4 Yeah, but he didn't mention calling an ambulance or seeking medical help for me - wouldn't those be logical steps if you seriously believe that someone has drank freon in front of you???
@uncalled4 That's the part my brain can't get around... all he did was mutter about me "drinking freezer chemicals" rather than taking steps to demonstrate that he believed that the water I drank was anything other than water.
He never even mentioned getting medical attention, where it seems logical that most people who are concerned about someone would urge them to seek medical help and get it checked out.
I mean, I did it when my man broke his elbow... I kept asking him to see his doctor or show a chemist for my peace of mind. I suspected all along that the elbow was broken - but I couldn't force him to get it checked out before he was ready to do it himself.
