    I was married, very happily, for 40 years. My husband passed away and it took me 4 years after his death to start dating. The first “relationship” I got involved with was a text book narcissist. After being married my entire adult life to a very good man, I was like a lamb being led to the slaughter. You can be in your 60’s and still be naive. There was only 3 years age difference between me and this man but I had no concept of what he was until I was fully entangled. He kept asking me to get married and I at least knew I didn’t want to marry him. He discarded me out of the blue and was married to his wife #5 in less than 3 months. I think as much as it hurt, I really dodged a bullet. Good luck to #5.

      Girl, God saved you from a lifetime of pain. I divorced my narc after 25 years of marriage and I'm still healing from that mess. Now I can spot a narc loser with my eyes closed. I'm still single and loving my new, peaceful life and freedom-- travelling and doing all the things i wanted to for years but was locked down. Living my best life now though! Now go live yours--you're worth it!

  • @donnaanderson2846

    I was 18, and he was 26. Although I was far more mature than people my age, due to my personality, and the fact that I had 4 older siblings. Even so, the lack of life experiences, definitely had me at a huge disadvantage. Fortunately, because I continued to mature, as humans should, the playing field was eventually leveled. I did give some years to allowing him room to grow, and see his “blind spots”. Eventually, it was game over.
    It’s more an issue of them finding someone who is vulnerable in a way that will allow them to take the most advantage.

  • @crzellmer
    @crzellmer 11 месяцев назад +18

    The narcs I've dealt with have gone after older women because the older women don't want drama. So the unaware older women ignore the bad behavior to keep the drama away... They let the narcissists get away with whatever... Older women will sometimes accept anything because they are desperate to have a man in their lives to not appear like the "old maid".

    As a woman, I have always seemed to be attracted to people younger than myself. Except in my 20s. I like how alive and healthy younger people are. Older people just don't have the same zest for life. I respect the wisdom and accomplishments of the older people, but always seem to crush on the younger ones. But, alot of older men date and marry younger women too. I have been used for money by younger men, but not like alot of older women. Alot of older women will give up ALL of their money to be with a younger man. Not me.

Luckily I don’t play them type of mind games and I’m always willing to walk away from toxicity. One someone pushes me away, that’s where I stay.

  • @useyourwings793
    @useyourwings793 11 месяцев назад

    Lee, mine was 15 years younger than me, i had been 6 years single before being with him and i didn't need a relationship (i wanted but i didn't need It). In the beggining i told him "no" because i had clear that It couldn't work between a 38 girl and a 23 boy but he asked for an opportunity and he did It so well that i accepted, one of the things i was surprised a lot about was his level of maturity, more than some men of my age, but of course, that facade only lasted 7 months. During that time he gave me the level of respect and reciprocation higher than i had received before, that was the reason that i accepted to be with him. I hope it helps to understand those situations.

    This is a good episode. Could I get an opinion?
    When I was in the beginning of the devaluation phase, I told him I was interested in older guys and I wanted to date one, and he said that I shouldn't date anyone more than 2 years older than me because then they would groom me. (he is 3 years older than me.) Do you think that was some kind of confession, considering NPDs tend to think their experience is everyone else's experience? (Also, he knew I was groomed in the past.)

He seen her since she was a baby no lie. It’s so nasty, I have a weird feeling something happened between them. But that’s for his sister to find out mind you the father of the girl is dating his sister but before he became brother-in-law he was already known as a close friend. I just want to inform you how nasty a narc could be. Oh and my neighbor next door her also has a daily routine he had to come out just to see her and the old lady across the street. Yeap old and young anything that looks back at him it’s fuel it’s validation it’s his energy to pump his self none existent self esteem. It’s sad. The fact I was completely in love with a man who never even existed.
