No emotion

Exactly - the only emotion that my abuser ever demonstrated was rage when he was denied money, sex, control, etc., and GLEE when he exerted control over finances, sex, spirituality, parenting, etc.  His famous line (only God knows how many times he screamed this at me), "You're UNDERMINING MY AUTHORITY!" was a constant within the walls of our domicile.  In public, he appeared to be so calm, rational, reasonable, genuine, etc!  ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!! 

<sigh>.....why doesn't Merck come up with some stinking drug for THIS?!?!?!  LMAOLMAOLMAO  They could call it, "Farkitol."
