  • your every move, and has a collage of photos of you on her wallis she crazy about you,

  • or just plain crazy? You will need An open mind Friends you trust and money for dinner.

  • Step 1. Pay attention. A delusional person spends more time in a fantasy world than in

  • reality. If your girlfriend talks incessantly about her celebrity crush, it may be a symptom

  • of a more serious problem. An emotionally damaged person may result to pining for the

  • unattainable in order to keep themself safe. Step 2. Does she obsess over her physical

  • appearance to the extent that it’s a problem? Self-image is one thing, Narcissistic Personality

  • Disorder is another. Step 3. Does she dress like she’s single even when youre together?

  • Either she’s playing the field while youre still on it, or she’s got major self-esteem

  • issues. Officially consider it a bad thing if your girlfriend desperately needs the attention

  • of every guy in the room on a regular basis. Women who suffer from the volatile condition

  • known as Histrionic Personality Disorder constantly seek attention, need frequent reassurance

  • on their appearance, and behave and dress in a sexually seductive manner especially

  • at inappropriate times. Step 4. If she’s blatantly flirting with other men in front

  • of you, make it clear to her that youre not pleased, subtly, if possible. This will

  • send her the message that you refuse to be manipulated. Step 5. Ask your friends what

  • they honestly think of your girl. Many times they can see flaws that you overlook. Step

  • 6. If she continues to flirt with other men, even after youve expressed your displeasure,

  • she’s clearly testing you. Women who constantly play head games with their boyfriends are

  • likely unstable and certainly insecure. Step 7. If she picks a fight about issues of no

  • consequence, she probably has trouble misdirecting her anger. While this isn’t abnormal in

  • itself, if later she still fails to see that the fight wasn’t really about the spilled

  • drink, she’s definitely got issues. Step 8. In the end, most guys will tell you that

  • even the most lovable women in the world are just the tiniest bit crazy. When all is said

  • and done, it’s up to you to decide just how nuts is too nuts. Did you know In 1987,

  • the American Psychiatric Association deemed premenstrual syndrome a psychiatric disorder.
