@chibam, the other 'delusion' could be that my ex-psy advised that we would meet socially at a future time. They think they are the only people who are important. (I've got news for them!). For them, it's ludicrous that he would find me a valued person to socialise with!!! ME!!! (have I got further news for them!!) So, neither was that a delusion!!!
In fact, he even had me study medical text books for 6-8 years, travel, improve myself all round. He groomed me for his society. (and I hate the word 'groomed'). So how amazing that such a nobody of a psy thought herself so important that they may think that a ' delusion'. (I didn't make the same appraisal of her as she has of herself). The sheer arrogance!! And pure ignorance.
And then he dumped me when I was 68, had impoverished me taking his financial advice and caused PTSD. I still battle trying to understand this situation. I just wish he'd talk to me and explain. I was his project, his experiment, his teammate, his prototype of what can be achieved when they discard the rubbish with which they've been inculcated and start to question everything.
I don't have 'delusions'. I deal with hard realities. And they hurt!
