I' skipped my home group meeting last week (when I really ought to have gone) bc for the past month this one guy (who I am fairly sure falls on the ASD spectrum) talks endlessly (30 min last time I was there) and it's NEVER about himself. It's how everyone around him is so messed up and how much they bother him and how he is sooooo healthy etc... And the damn chair of the meeting says nothing. I finally must have looked annoyed at one point the last time I was there bc when it was my turn to read/share he sighed LOUDLY while I was reading (not even sharing!) and then tapped his foot for the whopping 2 or 3 min that I shared. Looking around the room when he shares (it's a small group) you can tell everyone's uncomfortable but no one says a word.
So, Cyranoak, if you ever find yourself in my neck of the woods I'd LOVE you to come tell this jacka$$ off bc the last thing I need when I go to al anon is to be surrounded by someone as self absorbed and narcissistic as my AH.
I know I ought to not let it get to me but it does.
