I thought the same. This could be evidence that she was desperately fleeing from abuse from Josh, like when his previous partner Catherine locked herself in the bathroom.

2024-06-06 10:43:57 +0000 UTCTest results are interesting. It's also disappointing that abusive people can fool the system like that.

2024-06-06 05:38:31 +0000 UTCWhen Josh claims Susan ran out of the house in her underwear… interesting. He uses it as a sign of her mental instability. But I’ve certainly seen cases in which a spouse is locked out of the house as a way to bully/humiliate them. And cases in which a spouse may have their clothes or keys taken in an attempt to force them to stay. Could be that there was an incident like that- when Josh was at fault - and this was witnessed by neighbors. So now Josh sees a way to do damage control if that ever comes out AND bonus - he gets to make Susan look unstable. (Totally all speculation- but that’s just what came to mind for me)

2024-06-05 23:44:13 +0000 UTCThe things they accuse Susan of are similar to their own lives, or their family lives: being overly sexual, being naked in contexts not socially allowed, having abusing parents, having sexual feelings for family members.... Yikes

2024-06-05 18:26:14 +0000 UTCIt's incredible how different their minds work. Josh thinking someone being very sexual is enlgough to leave their whole family without a trace ? And Steven not realising it doesn't make sense 1) for Susan to be 'in love' with him and 2) if she was in love why would she leave ?

2024-06-05 18:24:47 +0000 UTCIs it a joke? 😅

2024-06-05 18:22:26 +0000 UTCYou know, I think I am high in neuroticism and conscientiousness. But I didn’t hoard at all during COVID. I think mine actually only stems from relationships, so maybe that affected it. It seems that I am only neurotic and conscientious in relation to relationships. So, I guess COVID didn’t trigger that for me. If I thought hoarding toilet paper was going to keep people loving me, perhaps I would’ve done it, lol.

2024-06-05 18:19:48 +0000 UTCI finished your TOB sentence Dr. Honda, I said … by fear! Pat on the back for me. Thank you for the palette cleanser even though it’s just us 😉
Jessica Edwards
2024-06-05 16:28:14 +0000 UTCBingo! Finally got a tough or bluff right and guessed it was fear as well! Needed that palate cleanser after watching Steven. He squicks me out so hard.

2024-06-05 16:20:20 +0000 UTCA very narcissistic man I know can put on a good “dad show” when he wants to be seen as a wonderful father. He isn’t really able to attune and adapt to his kids’ needs or preferences, but it looks pretty good during those times when the kids are in a similar “excited to see dad” mode, and interested in the activity he wants to do with them. It’s difficult to watch that dynamic over time. The narcissistic parent doesn’t seem able to know the kids as individuals, and the kids want so much to be known and seen and loved as themselves. The moments of superficial connection seem to keep the hope alive, that the parent will love them for them. I can see how an intelligent narcissistic person who wants to be seen as a good parent could give this impression to an evaluator — good enough parenting, though somewhat overly directive to the kids.
