      He doesn't want you as a friend. He wants you as narcissistic fuel. He wants you around to use for whatever benefits you're willing to provide. He wants you to triangulate you with the people he cheated on you with 🤷🏾‍♀️

    "Nothing good comes from them."
    EXHIBIT A: My ex-H narcissist is now 67. I divorced his narcissistic, abusive ass 24 years ago. Since then, he has blown through life wrecking every relationship he had. Now, even our daughter won't speak to him, after he abused her kindness, generosity, and help finding a job. She used to adore him! His siblings think he's an idiot. He has no friends because they all had enough of his entitled, lazy ass. All his New Supplies, 3 since me, kicked him out, leaving him couch-surfing. He tried Hoovering back each time but was met with a solid *NO.* The only reason he is still alive today is his siblings begrudgingly gave him a roof over his head and a job in their companies -- of which he is sowing discord amongst the employees! They are ready to quit! *So today, he is alone, with nothing to show and no legacy to pass on after 67 years.* The Karma part of it? When he discarded me for a girl HALF MY AGE, he told me his greatest fear is being alone in his old age. 😂

      So textbook. No, they never really change. It is sad for sure but for anyone who doesn’t think karma eventually catches up with these folks; it does. In the end, if they are lucky, they will end up with whomever is still willing to buy their sad stories - usually some long-suffering friend or family member. But they will NEVER stop looking for a better offer 🤦‍♀️

      They do say karma is a dish best served cold. Great to know that these monsters reap what they sow hundredfold. They end up dying alone and unloved. They deserve nothing less. The only thing left to do then is tramp the dirt down.

    My covert narc sister threatened suicide if I stopped talking to her and that kept me hoovered back in for 3 years.
    It’s been 6 months since I gathered the strength to walk away and began educating myself on toxic family dynamics and the affects of narcissistic abuse.
    And you know what?
    She’s still alive.
    And my quality of life has been light years better than it was when the year started. I sought therapy because I myself had serious thoughts of suicide as my only way out; I quit alcohol (which I abused horrendously just to freaking cope); got back into running and I lost a bunch of weight. I feel so much better in every way possible since I got out.
    Always walk away and *stay* away. They won’t change.

    Exactly on point Joe, thank you🙏🥰do they know they do this?
    Yes they think a 5 min kind act fixes it all.
    You have to start standing up for yourself, it was when I found some people in church,helped me come to the realization I was being abused. It was the angry rage that traumatized me.
    I just kept giving trying helping making life easier for him, very manipulative cruel, It’s so up and down daily you have no time to process, trying to stay emotionally even key.
    I saw myself going down, backwards, started holding back.
    When they push you to the point you have crying outbursts, or sudden fear for no reason, Or start shaking, afraid to talk. Rehearse how you can say something with few words quietly and walk away.
    If you don’t talk, they will pick on you all day until you are shaking, and just get angry yell back at them.
    4 5 hours of you distract don’t say anything they will keep on chipping away at you.

    I brainwashed myself to have that selective amnesia in order to preserve the marriage. My religious beliefs reinforced my mindset to endure his abuse in hopes that God would change him. After 28 yrs I realized God won't force people to change if they don't want to. I've begun to withdraw myself and see him for the soul vampire he is.

      It takes some time to get yourself bulletproof to their ways. Basically the goal is to know that 'they are the crazy one' and to learn that everything they say and do is a reflection of them and to not take it personally. It gets easier with time. I hope that helps a bit.

I believe I broke the Trauma-Bond early before more harm was done. I was so hurt and disgusted by the discard, I got away and stayed away. But, I find He still reaches out. And He obviously feels guilty and tells Me he misses Me. But, I know the best decision is to stay away.
