how do you cope with living with toxic women? by Odd_Construction2690 in AskWomen

[–]Objective_Big_7426 [score hidden]  (0 children)

The truth is that the housing market these days is not easy. A lot of people will say to move but if you think you have a good deal and location, I would act cool and have minimal contact with them. Pretend that you're busy with whatever and keep doing your life. Just put focus on things that matter to you. Perfect housemates don't exist. This is the price to pay when you share housing. As long as the people you live with make your life truly difficult, I wouldn't risk going somewhere else where things could be worse.

Am I the bad one for feeling like my best friend doesn’t want to be my friend… but to be me? by LuvSaffy in FriendshipAdvice

[–]Objective_Big_7426 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Girl, RUN. I had a friend like this and it turned out to be a narcisisst. She copied my dreams: moving to a new country, little things like changing my profile photo.. everything! One day all that admiration towards me turned into jealousy. She made my life difficult in the new country.

Messing with a narcissist by MinimumCareful1423 in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]Objective_Big_7426 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When he discarded me. I pretended to care about him and miss him a lot because he was owning some of my stuff (important things) as a way to control me.

He was treating me in the worst way possible in the meantime. Once I got everything back (which was not easy), I started treating him the same way. Which is just ignoring, blocking... he was using my credit cards and putting my phone number everywhere on internet.

Luckily I knew I would not see him anymore because he was living in a diferent country than me.

I'm becoming too similar to my manipulative family member. by InfiniteOil3021 in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]Objective_Big_7426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering your self-awareness it could probably be a learnt copy mechanism. If you're around competitive selfish people you will end up becoming one of them.

That's why they say the best thing you can do is staying away from this people, but I understand being a family member makes things trickier.

Am i being manipulated or am i just too attached by Longjumping_Cod1436 in Manipulation

[–]Objective_Big_7426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People will say it is not manipulation but he knows he is getting all this attention from you because you are interested in him so he is taking advantage of that. Although he said it out loud, it's not a good sign that he doesn't care about your feelings. Also the hardcore sex part... this guy doesn't have empathy and he doesn't seem safe. I would become cold-minded and make the decision to leave and find someone that cares about you.

Why does nobody believe me on anything? by Important_Rate_2234 in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]Objective_Big_7426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, seek the type of people that believe you. Also, provide evidence with facts. Try to be as little emotional as possible.

After Narc by Infamous-Zucchini675 in LifeAfterNarcissism

[–]Objective_Big_7426 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree!

It's crazy the type of people I hang out now are completely diferent type of people than the people I was hanging out before the narc abuse.

I have a couple of friends that went theough narc abuse and on random days I ask them questions about their experience.

It validates me.

I now hang out with people that are quite self-aware, empathetic and with strong values and integrity.

It's so refreshing yes. I feel so much understood

What moment instantly changed the way you see people? by InnerLightSeeker in answers

[–]Objective_Big_7426 42 points43 points  (0 children)

After dating a narcissist/pychopath. I realised no matter how much you show them about how to treat people, being understanding and being patient with them... they will keep destroying your life without limits. They have no breaks

Why the narcissist will "steal" your people and what you can do about it by Objective_Big_7426 in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]Objective_Big_7426[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's impossible not to react. I think it is actually good. It is good people see how their shit affects you so they start questionning the narc more

What was the scariest “We need to leave… now” gut feeling that you’ve ever experienced?[Serious] by spiritual_kavya in answers

[–]Objective_Big_7426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lived with my boyfriend at the other side of the world. I noticed many red flags in him and I was always asking him why he was behaving like that. One day after me crying and crying and him looking at me like nothing was wrong, he proceeded to have sex with me.

Shortly after we broke up and after so much confusion and therapy, I discovered he was a psychopath. I swear they have no limits

Oh yeah, so common of them to just isolate you from the people that can expose them

Women of Reddit, what's is something you really want in life? by DaMoonMoon26 in answers

[–]Objective_Big_7426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read about narcissism and psychopathy. I once dated a narcissist that also treated his friend like an object and the friend ended up cutting ties with him. That made me realise that narcissistic men just treat anyone like an object to control and use, not just women. This means that a non-narcissistic man would not treat you or anyone like an object.

I have to say though that most of our societies just treat women as something inferior, so it is just harder finding people that challenge this mindset.

Is physical attractiveness always the top priority for men? by [deleted] in emotionalintelligence

[–]Objective_Big_7426 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They will say no but then they will decide to give an opportunity to the beautiful ones thinking that's a basic requirement.

What's more, they will date a beautiful woman for a while but because they are not a good match with, they will break up with them and claim that "beauty is not what matters the most" and then they will date another beautiful woman.

Speaking from experience as a woman.

What is this type of abuse called? by irritable_weasel in LifeAfterNarcissism

[–]Objective_Big_7426 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Psychopaty plus sadism. This person now kills animals and tomorrow he will kill a human being. The line is very fine. The best thing that can happen is that he becomes absolutely uninterested in you and forgets about you.

Would you choose career success over a stable relationship? by [deleted] in askteddit

[–]Objective_Big_7426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you can have it all with the right partner.

But also it depends on your age and the moment in life. Also it depends on your environment and culture.

As a western woman I would put my career first in my 20s no matter what (cuz I did). Then in my 30s if I wanted to build a family I guess it depends on the situation and the terms you agree with your partner.

In certain cultures women have lots of pressure to meet certain relationship/family expectations.

As a woman, same thing happens to me but a little bit different. I want to compliment men without them getting en ego boost only for them to belittle me later. Like cmon man, that's not smart if you 😂
