there are many people who do behave like this , however I am not sure if anyone with this kind of behavior would write to online column seeking advice ?
I'm a member of an online site loosely formed around a shared interest but discussing all topics. There's two different users who spring to mind immediately as examples of people like this, who post questions pretty much like this.
I could completely see it if the person is narcissistic enough to do all these things they’d also be fragile enough to seek out someone to say “YOU ARE RIGHT AND VERY SMART.”
