    Narcissist are absolutely the most dizzying, exhausting, and psychologically exasperating beings on the planet. So glad my final divorce hearing is around the corner. 18 years of this crap -- makes a lot more sense now. Wow! Thanks HG for making it all make sense.

      Congrats to you, and I hope it goes well. My experience was many years ago, but I have never gotten over it, unfortunately. I hope that you will. I still have so many regrets about the years I wasted with a man who never even thought of me as a separate individual. It just proves that you can wait till the age of 31 to get married and still make a huge mistake. I also recommend the books by Patricia Evans on verbal abuse. She was a pioneer, and her books told my life story with my tormentor. Don't look back, be well.

      Both my mother-in-laws stayed with these abusers. Both my grandparents did as well. How a person can allow a narcissist to abuse them for decades is beyond me. A woman of my grandparents generation divorced her husband before her second child was even born. Divorce was not common then. She told everyone, including her children he died. They knew he did not, but never once confronted their mother about it & let her die thinking they believed their father had died.

    Most coaches I've listened to say narcissist karma is that they will never know the meaning of true love. I don't think they even crave it. They can't crave what they don't know. It must be karma for us who love freely and receive love to be entangled with a narcissist. I've been entangled with narcissists all my life I'm asking God whether I was created to be used and abused. I put others first and only end up with people who put themselves first too. I have accepted that I will never get love in it's purest form. I just want to heal completely and never be ensnared ever again.

      You’ll be surprised by how much respect you’ll garner by putting yourself first. Putting others first might feel like a noble act, but it’s really a disservice (exhausting) and sets the precedent for an imbalance in the relationship. IMO, self-love is what we’re all seeking because it’s the only love that truly knows our hearts desires. Fill your cup and only give away the overflow that runs over. Stay encouraged and most importantly take great care ...of yourself! 🌻

    • @lynncrf

      In order to experience love you need to go for someone different who you wouldn't normally be interested in. It might feel boring because they are not sending roses to your office after the second date, but it's less likely to end up as a narc situation.

    This makes so much sense. Every four months something happens and he cut me off. He was back every four months. Than he was gone again. The thing about him is that when he is around he gives me no air. He wants to be with me 24 hours a day. No wonder he got bored with me. I honestly enjoyed the space I got when we argued and stopped talking for months. He won't even let me sleep. When we stopped talking that was always the best sleep I got. I don't blame narcissist for getting tired of the same person. They too clingy and don't understand giving their partner space. One time he called and I didn't answer back in 30 minutes, and I got discarded for months for that. He didn't even wait for me to explain to him I was helping my son with his homework. I wounded him so he discarded me for months.

  • @lilyasknegt
    @lilyasknegt 3 года назад +32

    I think it also has to do with how their brain is wired: feeling love and bonding in commitment is lacking in a narcs brain, specially one with psychopathy. The other thing is: finding New sexual fuel is a predatory addictive behavior: once you are had, they will inevitably without feeling real love, appriciation or gratitude, have to put u aside, to taste another. They cant admit u were good, the right one, cause they need to be predatory, moving on to New prey

      This is a female fallacy. Men and women are not wired the same when it comes to sex. Read up on oxytocin released due to intercourse between men and women. Men need to bond to the women on other terms. Sex is just sex to us. It's not a release of bonding hormone that makes us feel deep love and bond.

    Narcissists seem to have a form of bi-polar disorder. When they are florid, they find a new supply because their senses are elevated and almost anyone they notice appears better than they are. Then they go into their downward spiral and the person slowly loses their brilliance in their eyes. If they start again on their elevated mood, they notice someone else and so the cycle continues.

They don't give a dam. But they not going to do it first, not if you're part of their pathetic little game. But they can afford to loose a hit or two now problem. They are idiots.
      Fuel driven idiots. If you stand back and look at them, you will realise it is exactly like a drug addict. They are parting with something to hook them in, but they themselves don't realise this because they are like crack heads, anything for a fix. A crack head doesn't remember robbing a house if he scores and gets high, he only remembers getting high, or even that is vague. Its driven behaviour. Desperate times desperate measures they need that fuel chasing the dragon.

  • @joannemcevoy4232

    This makes sense using the ice cream analogy. It pisses me off to hear how all of this comes about. The IPPS gets it the worst of everyone. Why would the narcissist bother to have an IPPS then if he/she is only going to grow bored of them? It is not as though they are going to remain faithful in any circumstance. I am aware that the narcissist needs a principal source to feed off so to speak but knowing that the primary source is essentially doomed at the outset doesn't make it easier to grasp this.

    Any relationship in the beginning is a golden period, when people first meet they're on their best behaviour and thats normal but narcs are excessive, narcs know the routine, they know every relationship they enter starts golden but is bound to end thus why they have a harram of supply and monkey branch so they aren't left without fuel. After a few months ( love bombing) the narcs mask starts slipping and their partner starts to see all the little red flags that narcs exhibit. No narc discards good supply, if you are discarded its because you weren't providing good fuel for them, calling them out on their bs, seeing them for who they really are ,exposing them and they fear abandonment so to protect their ego they leave first. Majority of people leave the narc first believe it or not and the ones the narc discards first always seem to be that their partner was either a narc as well or a person with very low self esteem.

    Thank you for making this type of behaviour crystal clear. It was an excellent analogy. Your method of making one understand what and why things are happening is invaluable. In one case of a person with narcissistic traits in my family (can't decide if she was truly a narcissist or not) I wish I had found your channel sooner. It would have assisted in keeping my exasperation and other emotions at bay by understanding the behaviour. I may have had a better relationship with her but maybe that is just wishful thinking.

    Dear HGT, Loving all this. Thank you. If this has been not covered already (I have not seen all the videos yet, but I will), it would be GREAT to understand why the parent must devalue the child, even as an adult, but esp. as a child. I imagine the reason is completely different to the ice cream analogy. For instance both my N parents (divorced) are relatively isolated, having run off everyone, and so it seems they each have to devalue the child in the desperate attempt for power. This really shows in the desperate old person who is on devalue mode from the outset.

    The scary part about all of this is she said she was worried about partners experiencing "diminishing returns" and eventually revealing concerns about everything else on the list; being "transactional" , giving the "silent treatment", etc.,etc. The "victim" thinks, well it won't be that way with me...(operating under their "value system"). It's as if the narcissist knows exactly what narcissistic behavior is and they are always on the alert that it not happen to them while exuding the exact behavior they are wary on their "victims" (although perhaps it's better to say "willing participants"?)

    But if my midrange narc ex ‘liked it’ when I switched from strawberry to triple choc (negative fuel), why did he use the excuse of ‘you creating an argument is tiring me out’ in his manipulative dismissal?
    If he liked it shouldn’t he had enjoyed me arguing with his bull$h1t pretzel logic?
    He even called the 2 months I stayed quiet when he broke promises and crossed my boundaries (instead of confronting/asking for accountability as usual) ‘peaceful months’ like he actually enjoyed it?

    'Familiarity breeds contempt'. Now that I am a bit more experienced, when a narc love bombs me, I remember that he will eventually turn into 'Dicky' (in The Talented Mr Ripley) and declare me 'boring'. I've had a few narcissist bosses whose PAs (I was one of them) didn't last more than 6 months. In one case, I lasted 1 year, but that was because I was 'extremely difficult to get rid of', as the guy put it with resentment, i.e. I was too good at my job. He was one of the company's directors though (it was a small business) so I couldn't expect any help from the HR guy, as he was that guy's employee, and just counting the years before retirement.
    Being compared to strawberry ice cream is quite bizarre!

  • @laughingwaters8309

    I'm fairly certain my ex is a mid-level range narcissist with borderline traits. He behaves very similarly to Michael on The Office if you know about that show. He's smarter than Michael, but there is a very strong correlation in his demeanor and behaviors. Anyway, he definitely devalued me mostly through the silent treatment and cold as ice indifference/hostility toward me. When I attempted to assert my independence in an effort to break free from co-dependence things escalated into hostility, sabotage and sometimes fits of rage. I almost lost my mind. The one thing I do find a bit odd is I am 95% certain he never had an affair. I'm not naive...there is just absolutely no evidence at all during our 27 year marriage. Is this possible? Do all narcissists cheat?

    When I listened, all I could think was “Obviously, HG is going to get some backlash for being so upfront about how the er “lifestyle” that has chosen him has worked against others.” I don’t think everyone fully appreciates that nobody wakes up one day and decides they’d like to be a narcissist, anymore than these same people wake up wanting to be their toy or their bait. But, it seems you are able to create a better understanding of it all. 🤔
