    I fell for a gorgeous, confident, charming Narc who love-bombed me and made me feel SO desirable/gorgeous that I was sucked into his web. Great relationship BUT he was never there when I was sick, nor stood beside me in times of strife and to top it all, abandoned me the day after my dad died! Yup, I learned the hard way but now that I can spot a Narc a mile off, I’ve never fallen for all that crap again.

      Why have you got to taint that relationship by turning it into some big dark conspiracy, why can't he just be a floored person who made you feel loved but also hurt you intensly? It's a story as old as time and is the source of a lot of literature, poetry and music. The level of emotion we can cause each other UNINTENTIONALLY is amazing and the best way to deal with this is to judo it into something else whether that's art or just an understanding of the person you would now like to meet and what's most important to you..
      But simply retrospectively looking at an entire period of time you had with someone and moments you shared as one big evil conspiracy where someone was constantly pulling strings, had bad intentions the entire time snd nothing was ever real, is so bad and so stupid this is not how to deal with it snd will only generate feelings of resentment and paranoia about other partners etc. It's just very human and animalistic.

      I’m interested in learning why people stay for YEARS! I have listened and watch her participate in his delusions of grandeur and get defensive when I say hey this is not healthy- you need to separate just for a while and heal. When he left her she followed like a sick puppy to be used again!!! Now they look like they are on the up but I see that cycle coming around again and it’s cruel to say I told you so - I will just be there because that’s what love ones do support and pray- maybe it can work out for her and she can start using him.

I experienced a very dangerous narcissist.....no one else could see it but overtime I started to see it more and more. The manipulation, the control, the set ups....the list goes on. When I was being gaslighted, devalued, discarded, threatened and more she actually bragged about her behaviour and spoke about how she has done it all before on another...she was so proud of herself for all she achieved.

    They say that online dating sites are hunting grounds for narcissists. Now we're saying speed dating is a hotbed for not only narcissists, but psychopaths too. Unfortunately, we've eroded society to the fact where the traditional ways of meeting people through community gatherings, family acquaintances. Or church are no longer really viable options. So I guess we all just have to stay alone.

    He didn’t really explain to people how to spot a narcissist though. The most I learned was to look out for those that are “using” others. However, a lot of us “use” people in life, whether it’s friends, coworkers, or romantic partners. I need help on a work assignment, I use my coworker for their knowledge on the subject that I’m not so great at, etc.

    • @Mike-ce6vr
      @Mike-ce6vr 3 місяці тому +9

      I wouldn't call it "use" for non-narcissist. Yes, we receive help from others that we seek out, but presumably we return that same help to friends, family, associates, co-workers without it being/feeling transactional. From my experience of being married to a narcissist, they typically don't offer that same help, in particular if the relationship is in the discard stage. If they do it's transactional.
      Narcissists tend to have everyone (their sources of "supply") doing things for them, but when you need them 99.9% of the time they're too busy, sick, etc. There is always an excuse of why that can show you reciprocity. In addition to zero lack of empathy and the inability to admit doing anything wrong.

    • @redridgemedia3771

      To help spot a narcissist you should look out for certain red flags. This involves dating slowly and allowing them to slowly expose themselves...
      If you feel yourself getting addicted or obsessing over them, then that could be a sign.. if things move a break neck speed, that's another sign... if they have a history of crazy exes... thats another sign.. Little to zero emotional empathy, that's another sign..
      Other things include
      Having no respect for boundaries
      Grandiose opinion of themselves..
      Unhealthy drug/sex kinks
      Cold behaviour
      Always trust your gut....

Using people is looking at them as OBJECTS to fulfill your needs then discard them like a jizzed in sock! Never ever returning the love given being emotionally, spiritually and physically supportive.

      I think the "deserving better", comes more from the gaslighting, abuse and worthlessness they received from their ex partner. Not necessarily that they think highly of themselves.
      Surely no one thinks it's normal to experience those things in a relationship. For most people in those relationships, they had already let a lot of abuse slide, (made excuses for their partner etc.) before they realised they, "deserve better"

    He looked at me with a straight face and said... Well Prince Charming had to have some psycho in him, or it wouldn't work. Then he smirked and walked away.

    Yeah okay I needed to hear this today. I have self esteem issues and I got attached to a narcissist. But I soon understood what mistake I did. I am not sure about him though. He says and acts like he loves me. I want to ask can a narcissist really love someone or are they just pretending?

    wow very insightful...may i say the progression of the ages in what we want in a partner from women's point of view could also be similarly reflected in when a woman age; ie as women age, they realise they have lower and lower tolerance to bullshit from men and we want men who would be good partners in both parties' self actualisation.

      Statistically, women show a more vulnerable and low self worth behaviour than men and therefore, in order to protect themselves, it is important for them to have high standards and high self worth. That doesn't equate to narcissism. Narcissism and vanity are two different things.

      @StFrannn 2 місяці тому

      NO, it's not something new! But this horror is FINALLY being brought into daylight!! Would have saved me if I was younger and could've learned about these monsters in time. Nobody knew, had the education, information and I thought men were like this.
      A relationship should be constant turns of violence, verbal abuse, silent treatment, threaths, always thinking about how to talk/act to avoid rage or more threaths. Never full trust, never getting any "I'm sorry", he fled or ignored communication, never them taking responsibility for ANYTHING, nothing was his fault ever, he was the only perfect human on earth, no empathy, no remorse, no soul really, a facade that fell behind our closed doors..
      A puppy dog -mask to colleagues etc.
      Next day it was forgotten (by him). He could be so sweet and that was my "heroin", the softness, the promises, the so called loving side.
      If i dared to bring my fear of his violence up though, his lack of true care for me as a human being with a value, if I dared to "stress his always more important self" with just normal adult responsibilities, he exploded quickly again...
      I had trouble breathing ok the last years. Lived a fake life outwards but I turned into a ghost.
      Became sicker and sicker in my isolated nightmare. And he raged about that too.. Why did I get so sick, it was hard for him.. If i only knew how a body could be destroyed by a narcissist.. You end up with SERIOUS illnesses if you don't get help to wake up and realize what you are dealing with. But it's terribly difficult to grasp when in the middle of it. You feel ashamed, terrified of their reactions and maybe (trauma upon trauma) not to be believed later! The loneliness, pure fear.
      It's SO hidden, they are experts in their manipulation.
      Imagine living over 15 years before you could get any information from the net, knowing something was VERY VERY wrong with a person but you could never put the right finger on it.
      It was me, always me, that was the root to well, his problems from day 1. I'm NOT perfect as any human isn't, but these relationships are NOT normal in any way, never near the old "It's not ones fault, you are two that fights" etc.
      So many sick boundaries are broken that no healthy person ever come close to. It has NOTHING to do with "normal fighting" were both have sane limits, respect and don't ever abuse any powers. Narcissism is power imbalance/abuse in the most monstrous costume! Another reality that few people even knows can be somebody else's "reality".
      I lived on an impossible hope for change, a wake up, him keeping promises, being a safe man, a humble human being that didn't trashed both our house and my soul/body if ever getting a minuscule amount of critic, or just me begging for basic tender care and respect.
      Impossible really to describe this sickness for the lucky ones never being brain washed by a covert narcissist.
      Not all are grandiose, the hidden ones, with a LOW (they only dare to abuse YOU, the only one they have that truly loves them...) self-esteem, slowly killing you, so slow and manipulative, that his book of rules becomes normalized. And you are constantly told it's ALL your fault, he has his right to break you down, you "trigger him" by just being alive in the end..
      You know inside that you give everything and are an empathetic, honest, very loyal, intelligent, warm person with a high level of conscience. Stronger than what is healthy.. But NOW I know that those exact traits was what kept this horror show running, I forgave to keep the peace, to feel some "love" until the terror restarted etc. etc.
      Was taught as a kid to never give up, trust people, all are good hearted inside, forgive...
      You can be the most strong, intelligent and stabil person in the beginning. Ending as a human wreck, sick, injured for life. Im forever changed. All trust is gone.
      Trauma does NOT make you stronger!
      Please, please, don't take this, VERY true abuse, light weighted!!
      And a narcissist that admits and gets treatment... Talking about statistics, well that is RARE!!
      They have never made a wrong in their life, it's others fault. Always. The world is crazy, all but them are low lifes and needs to change.
      If they miraculously gets close to a therapist they WILL manipulate them too. And if the therapist isn't well educated in that area, they fall for the mask too. Without a doubt.
      A narcissist themselves, wouldn't think of the idea to look for information about narcissism, people that gets abused by them DESPERATELY does. But sadly very late.
      I can only wish that very young people don't dismiss warning signs today and educate themselves from serious sources. Schools should teach about this, it would save lifes and souls!
      You have NO idea what you are dealing with before you're in the depths of hell.
      Think cult leaders, dictators etc.
      They are NOT just "normal assholes"!!!
