05/11 Obsessive Love: On the Run

Quote From: cashmere5678

You raised many of the same questions I was asking as I watched the show.  Why were the children with a babysitter as the drama was unfolding?  Why did Jen go home alone? Why were the police not notified in hometown in Virginia and get those kids to safety? And I did raise the question to my husband about her driving to Iowa with her children after no sleep.  Couldn't someone have sprung for plane tickets?

 

While I believe that Jeffery is a whack job, I wonder why he took off for a couple of days to go to California and be with friends if he was so obsessed with Jennifer?  I think that Jeffery played well for the camera. How much of his behavior was "acting" to an audience of 10 million!  I wonder if he ever thought he would end up in jail when he first wrote the letter to Dr. Phil!!!!!

 

Jeffery kept saying over and over that his marriage was "until death do us part".  I think that was a message to Jen that he is planning on killing her.  I had a neighbor some 15 years ago who behaved much like Jeffery and you know what--he did kill his wife.  He is now serving a life sentence with no chance of parole.

The problem is, if Jeffrey killed Jennifer, he would have no object of control (other than maybe the children).

...then again, Jeffrey doesn't seem to be the type that thinks "logically" on that level, so he could probably kill her anyway...

Quote From: tomanoday

 I just don't get this guy.  He ran a successful busines, had a stunning, intelligent, vibrant partner, two adorable kids... and he wrecked it all himself.  I'm not a psychologist, so I can't beging to understad what was going through this jerk's head, but he's got to be one of the most stupid morons I've ever seen.  My heart goes out to Jennifer for having had put up with this torment for so long and to the kids for what they're probably going to go through for a while.  But I'm glad for Jennifer that she's finally out of this nightmare and I'm certain the kids will be better off in the long run.

It just boggles me how guys like this can be so incredibly fortunate as to have something so wonderful and completely destroy it because of an irrational fear of losing it.  I just don't get it.
...and what a paradox it turned out to be...

Quote From: carlaann33

Right now the biggest concern should be for the woman and children where their safety is concerned.  Her husband obviously is a sociopath with narcissist tendencies.  These type don't want to help themselves change because they get a rush out of whatever they obsess over.  Very sad situation, that occurs all over this country and the number of cases is staggering. 
I don't know about him being a sociopath, but I won't argue against him having narcissistic tendencies.

Both are personality issues (Sociopath has no equivalent in the DSM: the closest is Antisocial Personality Disorder; the other is Narcissistic Personality Disorder).  Neither are covered under health insurance because they're Axis II.  Insurance companies believe that Axis II disorders (personality disorders and mental retardation) are "incurable," and therapists are hesitant to diagnose anyone with a personality disorder for this reason, even if the patient clearly has an Axis II disorder.
