Summary: <p><strong>Is your relationship one-sided? </strong></p><p><strong>Are you wondering if it's you? </strong></p><p><strong>Does your partner have to "win" always? </strong></p><p><strong>Is everything your fault? </strong></p><br><p>You're already confused, just the way a Hijackal® wants you to be. A Hijackal is a person who behaves in ways that are common to people considered to have <strong>narcissistic</strong>, <strong>borderline</strong>, <strong>histrionic</strong>, or <strong>antisocial </strong>behavior patterns. I created the term, <strong>Hijackals</strong>, so that you would have a way of talking about the behaviors without trying to make a diagnosis. You simply need to know the signs so that you clearly know what's really going on in your relationship.</p><br><p><strong>Hijackals love to reel you in with what is called "love-bombing." </strong>They have the ability to seem to be all that you ever wanted, your perfect partner, your soulmate. Then, once you've committed to them--and, oh, they're fast to want you to move in, marry, get pregnant--so that they can give up their false front and go back to being their real selves. Nasty, right?</p><br><p>For today's episode, I'm reading my <a href="https://www.forrelationshiphelp.com/help-handling-hijackals-spot-signup/" target="_blank">free ebook, How to Spot a Hijackal, which you can download HERE. </a></p><br><p>You know if you're with a toxic, difficult person. Believing it is another matter. Most good people actually hope and believe that they can be more loving, kind, compassionate, patient, forgiving, compromising, ______, and then the HIjackal will change. S/he will change because they will finally believe they are loved.</p><br><p>NO! It doesn't work that way. Hijackals simply always want more...until you are worn down, torn down, and put down and there is nothing left of you, your <strong>self-esteem</strong>, or <strong>self-confidence</strong>.</p><br><p><strong>LISTEN TO THIS OVER AND OVER AND LET IT SINK WAY IN! </strong> It could be that you had a HIjackal parent, and all this bad behavior on the part of a current partner or ex seemed somehow normal. NO! It isn't. HINT: Listen again if you need to.</p><br><p>I hope this help you see that more clearly. If you need help with this, I'm here for you.</p><br><p>Let's talk soon.
