I have a daughter who has lived in apartments during college and I know the difficulty we had in finding a good place with security because in college towns they often want a one year lease - not 6 months, not letting you out for the summer months. The demand is high so you go out in February to secure a place for the following September.
Amy was led on to the point that she moved out of her apartment the end of June, but Casey lied and said there was a small delay in her moving into the house.
Amy had to put things in storage and live with a couple of male friends, all while waiting for the call saying "come on now"... this wasn't something being sort of planned in the future - the move in day came and went and Amy was left hanging - Casey doesn't think ahead for anyone but herself.
I hadn’t heard about this. Were the Anthonys really going to move out, or was Casey just going to make them disappear as she did with Caylee?
I thought Ashton was excellent. Baez had to keep interrupting like he always does. Casey is scared as she should be. It’s no telling what she put Caylee through during her short life that we don’t even know about.
Somehow I missed that story! Maybe that explains why she stole from her good friend,Amy. She knew she wouldn’t be moving. But funny Casey moved instead into the Orange County Jail.
It is very common for narcissists, sociopaths, etc. to make elaborate plans that are not going to happen. They do live in a fantasy world- they think they deserve good things, do not understand the need to accomplish things to make things work- paying their dues in any way is not part of the picture for them. They have such an unrealistic view of themselves they feel they are special and entitled to whatever they want. When they make plans like Casey did with Amy for the apartment they firmly believe it will happen, they lie and stall, all along thinking somehow it will magically happen- because they somehow deserve it. When their fantasy plans don’t work out, they become very angry and blame someone else for it not happening. I think this is at the root of Casey’s issues with her mother. I have no doubt when Casey was a child her mother tried to make her happy and the problem with that is with a narcissist whatever you do is never enough- they are always convinced they deserve more.
I have been told that such people actually have very low self esteem and are projecting the confident, deserving image- but to me they seem so arrogant that doesn’t make sense.
Who knows what her mother was like before raising a narcissist- the traits I see in Cindy could have come about from trying to raise and support a narcissist, all the while expecting her to grow out of it- trying to make her happy until she did. I imagine it was all about Casey until Caylee came along...
