You nailed it, Brother R! We all have different motivations for posting and mongering, and we all have our own unique psychological quirks. It is obvious from superman's posts, tone, word choice, selection of details to report, and even choice of pseudonym that receiving attention and admiration for his physical attributes, from both chicas and fellow mongers, is one of his primary reasons for both posting and for mongering. Also, as you pointed out, the desire to instill jealously is indicative of deap-seated passive-aggressive tendencies. His aversion toward continuing relationships is also an obvious indication that he needs constant special treatment and attention, and affirmation that he is special. Should he find himself in a long-term relationship, he would have to deal with the fact that other factors of his person and personality would become more important, and would thus need to escape this torment by visiting a world where a young woman will comment that he is exceptional, and other men will drool with envy over his "accomplishments". Of course, anguish sets in when this psychological fix no longer provides the rush that is craved and expected. A very interesting phenomenon to observe, don't you think? Kendricks
