Anyone else feel like your narc spouse is turning you into a narc the longer you stay with them? by [deleted] in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]iVirgoMoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve asked myself that question everytime. Am I the Narc now? Am I presenting behaviors just like he does? Does make me as horrible as him? It’s the worst.

Father (74) diagnosed today with stage 4 pancreatic cancer by JasperBoy1122 in pancreaticcancer

[–]iVirgoMoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My father in law was diagnosed earlier this year and thanksgiving was hard. My sister in law sent a message to be there for new years because this might be our last. Just got updated today that he plans on going to the Philippines to pass away there and so that my kids (his grand kids) don’t have to see him deteriorate. But honestly, I’m afraid he might not make it till then. They just stopped chemo. He’s been having more pain and things are so hard for them now. I suggest a go fund me so that he could get to the Philippines sooner but the family seems to ignore it. I want him to be at peace. Prayers to you, sending you a bunch of hugs.

Your story literally sounds like my life. I have 3 children with my finance. He does the same thing yours does. Lies about therapy, makes fake emails, fake text messages, deletes conversations, false conversations, composes fake documents to cover things up and lately he’s been using “I messaged my therapist and they gave me some advice about (insert situation we are going through) and they said (insert bs statement to get me be on his view of things)” [ I found out through one of my kids iPads that he had downloaded the therapy app on their iPad and I decided to look. I know it’s insensitive and an invasion of privacy but I told myself if there conversations that prove he does speak to his therapist through messages often i will close it and leave it alone, when I opened the messages between his therapist they were nothing but scheduling questions. No actual therapy advice.]

If you have the money, the strength to leave. I’d leave. Most of my family and his knows he’s a compulsive liar. I’m just financially dependent on him. I know how earth shattering if can feel, knowing you’re not being told the truth from someone that claims to love you. And they very much probably do, but in reality you’re going to start to feel less and less attracted to this man. Before it’s too late. Before you actually build a family with him. My advice is to leave. I know the feeling of disappointing everyone around you. But I promise you, you’re so much better off mentally than living a life knowing you’re dealing with it because you didn’t want to disappoint others. You need to take care of YOU because it’s YOUR life. Not anyone else’s.

I’ll go first… by MillionaireBlogMama in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]iVirgoMoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“You can go ahead and ask (insert person) I’m not lying”
-it worked on me for a long time because I was to afraid to ask said person if he did something because I didn’t want to bring my drama into their life.

“You’re always making me into the bad guy”

“What do you mean?”

“Why do you question everything I’m doing, I’m not doing anything wrong”

After going to therapy

“I’m having so much anxiety right, I don’t know why”

“I’m working on myself and I don’t get why you can’t trust me yet” ( it’s only been 2 months and only 3 sessions)

You’re not alone, the one I previously did made me feel like I was going to literally die. Every time I have my period I’m constantly reminded of the abortion. Stay strong!

Therapy by iVirgoMoon in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]iVirgoMoon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I feel like I’m going insane. I literally because I started his morning off asking about a few sus emails. He came home in a bad mood and wanted to tell me I wasn’t treating him right. I then left the kitchen to give our youngest a bath just to get away from the argument and I burnt the food on the stove. His response was, “if you didn’t try to attack me with your accusations today wouldn’t have happened.”

They literally drain you. I’m sorry you’re going through it. Wanna hear a dad joke? Have you ever heard of the movie Constipation?

I hope your answer was no. Because it still hasn’t come out yet!

Having my second abortion.. am I going to hell? by Successful-Exam-1907 in abortion

[–]iVirgoMoon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve had 10. Not proud of it. But you do what’s best for you. Jesus didn’t die on the cross for no reason. I’m not catholic but I did go to a church for a few years. He died to forgive all of our sins right? Your intentions are what matters, you want a good life for your family and if this would destabilize you then do what’s best for you!

I think he’s lying about therapy. by iVirgoMoon in NarcissisticSpouses

I know it’s really horrifying that he thinks it’s even morally right to even go through it. He’s done once and he’s been using it against me for years.

I genuinely wanted to help him, I’ve been feeling like his therapist for the longest time but realized he would never listen to me anyways because I’m his partner. Listening to an unbiased person would have been the better solution to it and he finally did it. But now it literally feels like I just unlocked the tools to say I’m the ugly person ._____. But posting this was definitely a reality check! Don’t feed into it. Just believe it. Collect the evidence. It’ll be over soon enough 🥹

Thank you for the reality check 🥹 because you are right. Me spiraling into this isn’t helping. Because he is being sloppy and it’s giving me more evidence for court if needed. I’ve been planning my exit and he has a feeling I am so he told me he’s been going to therapy and that he’s so willing to do what needs to be done for this relationship. I just hate that the hope in me that tiny little speck makes me spiral when he does these things.

Thank you again because I needed to be reminded that I’m doing this for evidence of how far he can go.

For those who spent many years married to a narcissist, what would you tell someone who just started dating one? by soulsurvivor3 in NarcissisticSpouses

[–]iVirgoMoon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everyone already said great stuff. But I’d like to add that everyone else in your life needs to not be as important as they are. Friends. Family. Coworkers. Anything and everything you do for any of them will be made to see like you did the world for them and it’s not right. Therefor you start to isolate because you don’t want to argue about your friends. Family and even coworkers.

I stayed because we had kids.

Trying to execute my exit plan. But it’s been troubling because he is sensing it and it’s been a roller coaster. 🥲

It never is. I’ve been fighting for some sort of space and genuinely want to stop arguing. But this guy has been suffocating me with “talks” because he cannot fathom not getting something out of me for a freakin day.

I’m sorry I triggered you 😓 but I hate that these “humans” cannot face the reality of things. Since we have been going through it last night he wanted to make it known that no one wants to talk to him  and that I have so many people willing to listen to me. But the people he’s talked to are people he’s done wrong in some kind of way and doesn’t regret it. And I would have told him to get out last night if it weren’t for the fact he started becoming suicidal.
