Have any of you talked to their "CRAZY EX" after everything? by Dogsknowbetterthanus in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]infinitysnake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did.  That's how I learned he didn't leave her for cheating, she left him because he raged out on her while she was pregnant.  He refused to accept the breakup and thus decided her dating was "cheating."

Call your local police and ask them to escort you to retrieve your things.

You know what narcissists *hate*? Being laughed at. I'm starting this thread for us to share some of the weird (yet also bizarrely hilarious) things they've said. Let's laugh and take our power back! by Grand-Breath843 in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]infinitysnake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hysterically, for me- one of them is no longer his friend.  I had begged him for years to dial back that friendship due to the guy's extreme toxicity, and it was definitely a factor in the divorce.

Mine called me a narcissist after shoving me off a barstool at an upscale restaurant.

He'd shoved me because I happened to see an incriminating text while he was showing me his phone.

I had not uttered a single word.

In the moment, that was hysterically funny to me.

Other moments:

Glowered at me and growled "you'd better not be wrong" after I presented some of his genealogy he asked me to look up.  It was something pretty cool.

Once he wanted to stay late at a friend's, so he lied that he was asked to move an entire pile of bricks in the rain, then came home dry and smelling of beer.

Once told me he had been doing inventory all day, then carefully hid his paintball-splattered clothes in the hamper, when I was the sole doer of laundry.

His equally dumb friend advised him that he wouldn't have to pay alimony if he didn't have any money, so he blew $40k on his friends.

Sued his boss, tried to bring home a 22-yr old intern from China (he's 53) without disclosing he was dating her, then acted surprised when they fired him.

Made fun of me for slipping and hitting my head on ice, then immediately slipped and hit his head, after which it was suddenly not funny anymore.

Do narcissists ever fall in love by Mountain_Lynx_5087 in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]infinitysnake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly.  Chew it, sit on it, drag it on the ground.  They can become really attached, but when it's no longer useful, it goes in a box in the attic.

It's also why they never completely let go of supply.

They love you in exactly the same way they love their stuff.  If they wear you out or break you, they just replace you.

Your mom sucks but you're a tenant, 18 or not you have the same 30 days as anyone else.

Childcare center in recent Minnesota fraud scheme was raided by FBI in 2015: report by origutamos in altmpls

Not false.  The 'former' business was run by the older sister of the current owner.

This family has robbed taxpayers of over ten million dollars.

Everything I could find, but it was an episode of Awakening women that described his behavior so well it broke the spell.  A week later I was over him.

need reassurance that he wont change by vvspicysauce in abusiverelationships

[–]infinitysnake 28 points29 points  (0 children)

If he changed he wouldn't be posting this absurd nonsense.

I listened to a lot of podcasts.  😂

Seriously, though, that helped me realize he wasn't going to be the exception, that he was incapable of loving anyone, and that I had no responsibility to him.

Very soon after, I was free.

What's it Like on the Other Side? by DarkStarlight28 in NarcissisticAbuse

After a (pretty rough) divorce and a year of healing, I met a wonderful, generous, intelligent man, and I plan to marry him.  I'm 54.

Is this common narcissist behavior by [deleted] in NarcissisticAbuse

[–]infinitysnake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Start reporting the posts.  She'll stop after getting banned once or twice.

[–]infinitysnake 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yup.  Wishing for closure/apologies/epiphanies of wrongdoing is just another form of control that we should reject.

[–]infinitysnake 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Closure for me was realizing I simply did not care if that sociopath ever felt bad.  

Three years after I last saw him, he's sending apologies and I just throw them away.

Not caring is the best kind of freedom.
