>what i struggle with is an unwillingness and a perceived inability to stand back from my emotions when i get the impulse to engage her whether its due to perceived mistreatment and seeking revenge or missing her as a source of comfort and soothing.
This is not a narcissistic thing, but there's definitely a control issue going on here. You feel controlled by her and her ability to soothe you. You seek to regain power by following her. You can't stand the thought of her not thinking about you. What emotions do you have when you do engage her, even if by just looking at her from across the street?
