    I’ve seen enough of that contemptuous state, the wicked mean treatment and words, the false accusations, being told I’m hated and to burn in hell. Being broken up with and blocked countless times, 2.5 years of that was enough! I love and miss his sweet dog and he ruined it for us all!

    When a narcissist moves on they will treat their new supply better than they did you because they have to. Just as they treated you better in the beginning. You will have to accept that or you won’t be successful in moving forward with your life. What you won’t see is that they’re not going to keep it up long. Soon the new supply will say something or do something that will upset the narcissist as you did and will start treating the new supply as they did you.

    The only contention I have is living your normal life is not an imperfection. Their projection has nothing to do with you at all, whether or not you are perfect. Of course I also believe that no one is perfect, but their insults have nothing to do with imperfections when we are living our normal lives. It is on them.

    I found it really bizarre, one of the last things she said to me was "You'll always be my #1 love" yet she stood me up for dates and threw me away way too many times to count. These people are very damaged individuals, and unless they get professional help they are going to be a very lonely old person.

    N like to shame and belittle you by being highly critical of something you have or haven't done. Consequently, you don't tell about the abuse, because you are forced to relay criticism of yourself.

    There are countless situations where people are insulting and rude, but the sting of the attacks from a narcissist, (unwarranted and nonsensical) hits hard. My ex started the insults and criticism about two months in. Left me in a permanent state of confusion and bewilderment. When someone you love suddenly is another person, like a split personality or something like it. A real Jekyll and Hyde. Devastation for many many years. Been solo ever since. Peace at last.

    You know, it’s true that I put very little effort into my audio. But the reason I haven’t invested in anything to do with audio is because you are the very first person in over 4 years that has ever said anything about it. I think if I get a couple more comments about it, I’ll look into audio equipment. I know absolutely nothing about how audio works, and I’m too busy to look into it when it doesn’t seem to be a problem.

    My narcissistic mother rationalized her every bad according to a “domino effect”. If you hadn’t left the toilet seat up in 1969 then you wouldn’t have set in motion a “chain of events” that led to the present situation and thus she would not have been forced to do whatever happened in the present time frame. It’s type of alloplastic defense mechanism where she perceives an imagined connection between someone else’s actions of the distant past and her bad behavior in the present which is retroactive culpability

    This situation happened. Upon seeing each other after 30+ years of no contact, as we were walking into lunch meeting she said to me that she cares about me -after all the years went by. There wasn’t any eye contact, as if she was saying it to herself. It seemed as if she was patting herself on her back. It’s true that certain people are put into your life for a reason. She returned to destroy me, little was I aware… So many lessons learned
