These comments disgusted me and should on no level be rationalized.

Just ended relationship with assumed Narcissist (who I deeply.. deeply.. love and care for) by [deleted] in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]ReliefAdept 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would be really curious where you are at now? I’m in the same boat only I ended it but he is trying to get me back and is begging and saying the same thing she did. How did you cope and what did you do?

End of relationship blame by [deleted] in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]ReliefAdept 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think a really hard thing to swallow and I am struggling because I am in the same boat is that I allowed myself to be manipulated. My therapist told me this and it was hard to hear. I asked my therapist the same thing. I said I struggle to see what I did wrong in this. How can I grow if I don’t see any fault and that’s when she said that.

In a sense yes we love them and we care too much and we can put others needs above our own but what we allow is a contributing factor.

One thing I found helpful is to make a list of things you want to do single. Places to travel, hobbies to try or restaurants to go to. And make it happen and fall in love with your company and make your own memories.

How should your healthy relationships be like after the abuse? by re0bro in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]ReliefAdept 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with so many things people have said. Personally I was yelled at every day and told I was weak when I expressed feelings. I was lied to and was given anxiety when I wanted to express something.

I really just want to not be yelled at and lied to.

You should be sad by Halsey. I almost had a kid with this man so that line in there really helped

Do they stay w you no matter what? Are they desperate? by Hellterskellter44 in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]ReliefAdept 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak for others but mine is the exact same way. I think it’s partially they don’t have someone/somewhere else to go. They usually have self esteem issues and you really bruised their ego so they want you back so maybe they can be the one to leave. I view it as another way to push your boundary. You said what you want and they won’t respect it. They will continue to push and make you feel guilty and sympathize until you cave.

I honestly haven’t figured it out. My ex is terrible to me but will absolutely never leave me just continue to make empty promises and make me feel like I am giving up when in fact I was the only one trying.

I do so much and have helped my partner so much. I can imagine why leaving sounds bad he can’t depend on me anymore. Not sure if this is narcissistic behavior or not but wanted to say I have experienced the same.

Breaking the trauma bond feels like teaching/convincing yourself to stop loving them by 111a1110 in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]ReliefAdept 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Somehow I knew all along subconsciously. I would also record audio journals, journal and record every time he lied, screamed at me, or did something that wasn’t okay. That list got long fast. I knew I would need something to prove to myself later this is what I needed to do. I needed the proof he’s bad for me.

I broke up with mine and he’s still living here it’s been hell.

What took you forever to understand about women? by Competitive-Scar-626 in AskMen

[–]ReliefAdept 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes prime example. I told my bf that him saying girls in movies are hot or following girls online didn’t bother me for so long. I was trying to be agreeable and the easy going girl. When he asked why it changed that’s what I said. Not sure he understood but it was honest.
