ORIGINAL: BambiBoi Do you think its appropriate for him to "shift the center of his universe" for a "short term trial?" This, and this: quote:
ORIGINAL: myotherself The only way he will be able to put you as the centre of his universe is for you to be the kind of person that a guy like him wants and needs to worship. Rather than focus on him, perhaps work on your own awesomeness? You can use cognitive and aversion training to work on his external reactions and behavior patterns, in a relatively short timeframe. However, if you want to shift his internal patterns of perceiving his self and you, you need to work on your behavioral patterns, which is a long term project. In order to become the center of somebody else's universe, you need to teach them -through your behavior and consistency- that depending on you to take care of things, and decide things, has an average higher success rate than them depending on themselves to be in control and make decision. Unless you have a consistent track record to back up the fact that he should turn to you first, before he turns to himself or anybody else, he won't be able to shift his internal focus to do so, because his own adaptation and survival instincts won't let him.
