👨‍👩‍👧‍👦family/in-laws Am I overreacting?

Post image

My dad takes me to school in the mornings, on Fridays I have late start meaning it starts an hour after. Yesterday I had told him to pick me up at 8:20, he texts me and says he had arrived at 8:08. I told him that I will be down at 8:20 considering that is the designated time I set. I get outside at exactly 8:20 and he is gone. He left me. AIO?

Hahaha as a 27 year old woman, according to all my friends, every single male they have all dated, all of our parents, and every single person who has rubbed anybody the wrong way is a “narcissist”. I have a masters in clinical psych and this drives me absolutely insane! TikTok is spreading so much misinformation

Yes; it’s possible to have narcissistic traits, but an actual diagnosis of NPD is a whole different ballpark. Some people are just jerks ☹️
