Parker

Parker is a guy who comes across as being charismatic, kind, respectful & honest. Over time you discover the man behind the mask. He will impress you, put you first, give you with compliments and praise – but always has a motive. He has to be needed and have others depend on him. He'll do everything in his power to ensure that you rely on him. Even if it comes to ostracizing you from your family & friends. He'll convince you that everyone else is out to get you and that he's the only one you can trust.

He seems confident, but in reality is insecure and has a low self-esteem. But he also has an exaggerated sense of pride and self-importance. He believes he's destined for greatness. To receive validation, he's not above lying about his accomplishments. He feels justified in doing so. He never feels that anything is his fault – it's always someone else's fault. He is selfish and loves being the center of attention. When he is not being pampered, cared for, or if the spotlight is on someone else, he throws tantrums. He is envious, suspicious of others, arrogant, a pathological liar, unable to experience empathy, and feels superior to others. He reacts to criticism (about his behaviour) with denial, asserting his innocence while demonstrating no sympathy or remorse.

He will take and destroy everything and everyone you love. He will gaslight you until the cows come home. Avoid him at all costs.

Jennifer: Parker is the best! He never lets me pay for dinner. He is so kind and respectful. The perfect boyfriend.

Ray: Don't date him! He's arrogant, selfish, and incapable of thinking of anyone other than himself. He'll show his true colours soon enough.
