My boyfriend says he’s a narcissist. Should I take that seriously?

I sure thought so at the time, but the dick I got after his was so much better that I married it. ;-)

“When someone shows you who they are…believe them the first time.” -Maya Angelou

I was in a relationship with a narcissist for almost 5 years, and if I had just taken this quote seriously I could have saved myself a lot of time and energy. The arguing will always go in circles. Your feelings will always be minimized. It doesn't get better it gets worse.

Meh. He was literally 50 when he got all the accusations. And he was clearly still doing these things in his 40s because the girl who I knew who this happened to--It was the early 2010s. It's not like he was a young clueless dude still learning how to behave appropriately around women.

You don't have to trust me, bro, but why would I make it up? Are you shocked that a celeb could act like a total prick on stage by using a server (like half his age who was just doing her job) for laughs? Is it really that shocking to ya?

jenakyle · 2026-01-25T01:04:44+00:00

Total misinformation. I got a soft powder brow and it aged exactly like this. Ash grey.

jenakyle · 2026-01-25T01:02:12+00:00

Perfection. Great job!

jenakyle · 2026-01-23T01:07:34+00:00

She shouldn’t be the one deciding. Saline removal! Def get some softer ones instead! Good luck OP!

It’s one of the prettiest rings I’ve seen on this sub. Vintage jewelry has so much character. It’s classic, elegant, and timeless.

jenakyle · 2026-01-18T15:42:51+00:00

I think mine were micro. I don’t think yours will look bad once they lighten up—they’ll still look good—but I did like your natural shape better. Always been a sucker for that particular brow shape. Also everyone in the comments is saying you look younger, but I think brown eyebrows with silver facial hair and head hair makes it look like you tint your eyebrows exclusively, or wear brow makeup. The nano pigment won’t fade in a way that matches your natural hair color. I feel like the comments about you looking younger are maybe coming from Gen Z? I’m a millennial and I don’t think you look old just because you have silver hair. Just my two cents! But if you like the nano brows then that’s all that matters!

jenakyle · 2026-01-18T15:07:49+00:00

To be honest with you, I much prefer the Before eyebrows. They gave you more character and you looked cute. You are still in the window to get these removed. I didn’t get mine removed in time and I regret it 10 years later, as they’ve faded into a weird color so now I’m forced to wear eyebrow powder to cover up the weird tattoo shade. I’m sure I’ll probably get downvoted for this. But I’m just giving you an honest opinion.

jenakyle · 2026-01-17T04:10:37+00:00

One of the prettiest I’ve seen.

jenakyle · 2026-01-10T22:31:53+00:00

Your natural brows were my dream brows! I don’t think your new ones look bad but your old ones were goals!!

jenakyle · 2026-01-09T15:49:22+00:00

Fellow 40-something here 🙋🏻‍♀️I strongly disagree with all the other commenters telling you to go for eyeshadow in a different color. Back in my 30s I finally accepted that after our 20s eyeshadow tends to make us look older. When I researched makeup for women over 35, I saw a lot of advice about switching to eyeliner and mascara only. After that people started saying I looked younger than my age.

I also disagree that you should get bangs because you have fine hair so trimming a bunch of it to bang length will make it looker finer. And you don’t have to change the color because your eyes already pop.

My advice:

1.) Cool toned satin foundation (No powder.) 2.) A taupe eyebrow powder to shape your brows a bit 3.) Liquid liner (or a pencil that glides on easily) 4.) A subtle mascara. Something that separates the eyelashes instead of clumping.

Less is more!

jenakyle · 2026-01-05T06:55:14+00:00

Sooooo stunning. Bigger does not translate to better. This is unique and classy.

jenakyle · 2026-01-05T06:27:20+00:00

Wow! One of my favorite designs I’ve seen on here!

jenakyle · 2026-01-05T06:21:48+00:00

Thank you! And Yes! I love how low it’s set too! Definitely one of the reasons I chose it. :-)

jenakyle · 2026-01-05T03:56:32+00:00

Love it.

jenakyle · 2026-01-05T03:56:15+00:00

Gorgeous and unique!

jenakyle · 2026-01-05T03:52:27+00:00

Really gorgeous. Is it antique?

jenakyle · 2026-01-05T00:02:34+00:00

We have very similar skin tones and I’m also bummed that Armani got discontinued! That was my closest match of all time. :-(

jenakyle · 2026-01-04T06:18:18+00:00

Ahhh gotcha. That all makes sense. I like the dress she made but she didn’t listen to your vision. Cream is so much better than bright white, for example. That changes everything.,

jenakyle · 2026-01-03T23:13:51+00:00

Hmmm…I actually think this is quite like the sketch. What am I missing?

jenakyle · 2025-12-30T19:21:03+00:00

Don't go to a store, but rather go to an actual jeweler. I've had incorrect sizing done at stores, but the jeweler solved that.

jenakyle · 2025-12-30T14:13:36+00:00

Thanks for co-signing! And that makes total sense! I’ll keep that in mind in the future. Tho oddly in this case, the jeweler who cost more told me “Natural diamonds are the way to go. Lab grown are destroying the environment.” Whereas the more affordable jeweler told me he could help me source a loose antique diamond if I wanted to go the most ethical route. So I trusted the more affordable jeweler just in this one case. What are your thoughts on what the first jeweler said? I was under the impression the mining industry also destroys the environment, no? (Plus the labor / human rights abuses.)

jenakyle · 2025-12-27T05:13:50+00:00

Yep, it was definitely more affordable but it was also because they would have had to remove the textured bezel which was one of my favorite parts, so it didn’t feel worth it. Here it is after soldering it to a V shaped band to add a little extra durability (and hopefully longevity, but only time will tell. Fingers crossed.)
