    True.

    I like that you had a different perspective on these questions.

    You can only look at a gorgeous work of art for so long.    It takes more than a visual stunner to keep the average person awake.   I mean once you have seen and appreciated, then what?    Oh yes, you can do a Melania and pose naked in Maxim Men's mags.  That might give you 5 more seconds of fame. 

    Or?  You can have a brain and still look attractive, even gorgeous and then you have a package worth admiring. 

    Or?  You can be ugly and have something to say and still have a package worth admiring.

    Beauty fades when that is all you got.

    I think you're right about a high number of narcissists with tender egos online. Unfortunately.

    It's hard to imagine how it could be common since it's impossible.

  • This may not be appreciated but I think we have ourselves and society to blame .. we all, but mainly us gals, spend far too much time and effort on how we look ... we have our excuses why but most of us are guilty of it... he's caught up in it and trying to play the game, badly by the sounds of it while you were playing a different game .. that of conversation ... Not apportioning blame here to anyone, just two different conversations were talking place

    That is another question I need to ask. lol I know there have been studies about what compels people to perform certain online activities, but I haven't seen a breakdown of general internet activity by diagnosis. O_o

    That sounds about right. I'm glad he took his ball and went home. He wasn't any fun to play with anyway. lol

    Perhaps with the people you communicate with, it is, but some people want to have entire conversations about how awesome they are.

    it might give a deeper understanding of the reaction pattern of various categories of members at a site like aM and alike. Hmm.
