Let me see what you guys think. I've already started coming to my own conclusions.
This girl I had a SERIOUS crush on 5 years or so ago just IM'd me out of the blue a couple nights ago. I mean bad AFC one-itis, complete with the desperate spill-your-guts maneuver that effectively ended all contact between us.
Naturally I'm looking a little more carefully at her this time through...and for once, I'm actually starting to get reads on her...all these little "red flags" that I didn't notice before because I was too head-over-heels for her. This was in the infancy of my "game years", so not only was I not ready for it, I didn't even see it COMING.
Some of the sh!t I'm talking about:
NAME-DROPPING: Anything you start to talk about, she seems to know SOMEONE famous related to it. Mention the UFC fight this weekend, she knows someone who corners for Randy Couture. You like rap music? She used to hang out with Jay-Z. Just last night she's talking some nonsense about going to a restaurant where "it's not unusual to see Joe Biden or **** Cheney sitting across the room from you". Her female friends are all Playboy-playmates, female fitness champions, etc.
MANY MALE "FRIENDS": They just seem to come up in conversation..."My friend took me here", "I was hanging out with a friend of mine the other night and he's...". If you ask her about whether she's "dating" them, though, you get, "No, it's not a date...at least I don't THINK it is...hmmm" Like she's leaving it ambiguous on purpose, just to get you in that competitive mindset.
ALTERNATING BETWEEN EXTREMES: Specifically, gender extremes. One minute, she's a "tomboy", talking about sports cars and boxing, then the next minute, she sends me this link to these high-heels only a stripper would wear..."what do you think of these?"
OVER-THE-TOP DETACHED SEXUALITY: Last night, she sent me these links to these sexually explicit websites. Not just porn...stuff seemingly designed for "shock value". Videos about beastiality, flash games with Japanese cartoons engaging in sadomasochism...all under the, "You won't believe how f'd up this is" banner. So it's "safe", because it's only entertainment. For what it's worth, I've been to "second base" with her...I don't know if I could've gotten any further or not, because there was a lot of sexual tension and push-pull on BOTH sides when I was dating her. She plays the "good girl" card when it suits her...and there are times when I pulled take-aways to try to boost the tension but never reconnected.
VAGUE PERSONALITY: She is always talking about how she is doing all of these things, has these hobbies, wants to go to this school, have this job...it changes every so often, but when you try to pin her down on anything or dig for details, the answer is always, "I dunno...LOL". Almost like her whole personality is "vaporware". I always feel like I'm talking to a "front", like she's keeping her real thoughts and feelings shut away in some closet somewhere. Or like she doesn't have them at ALL.
Now...what would be YOUR "diagnosis" of a girl who exhibits these kinds of traits?
I already know what I think. I just want to see what YOU think.
