We are becoming victims of other people who are self-centric, self-absorbed, distrustful and neurotic. Many of these people are experiencing delusions, psychotic episodes, hallucinations, cognitive deficits, attention deficits and memory deficits. They may have low IQ, head injury trauma or other disabilities that they have never exposed to us.
You may be a very trusting person. You may think that another person will be candid with you about the child abuse that they may have experienced. You meet someone else, and they tell you that they come from a good family. They tell you everything that you want to hear. They tell you everything that they aspire to be, instead of telling you what they truly are.
