We need a new word for....Someone who believes that everyone in the world is conspiring to make him or her happy.
i.e. the opposite of P A R A N O I A
Pollyanna doesn't quite do it.
an attempt — AN AIONARAP - SOMEONE WHO BELIEVES THAT EVERYONE IN THE WORLD IS CONSPIRING TO MAKE GOOD THINGS HAPPEN TO HIM OR HER.
being an Aionarap, i am sure that there is a better word for this and that you or someone else out there will HELP!!!
