    Men, do not hesitate for one moment to put a restraining order against your female partner if you feel your safety and health is in jeopardy. Placing a permanent restraining order on my female partner was absolutely the wisest protective move of my adult lifetime. My only regret is not doing it years earlier. Men, be safe!

      My ex filed a pro order and came back to the house, manipulated me for sex one last time with promises of reconciliation. And flipped her script the next morning, messaged my friends family and anyone she thought was pertinent to her smear campaign. While I'm being served shes blowing my phone up telling me that we can be in contact and to contact her immediately, sent all her ultimatums to my family to be delivered to me as I stayed no contact. Was coming into my home while I was gone or at work. Then dismissed the order the day before court. Sent me nudes from a women's shelter. Wouldn't let me see my son. But wanted to make it work? Then demanded counseling that she wouldn't participate in monetarily. Lied in those counseling sessions while she manipulated the counselor. The whole time she was cheating with numerous men while I was at work, gaslighting me that I'm "paranoid" "crazy" and obsessed. Came back numerous times to save our marriage and then would flip her game and file another one. She had people taking pictures of my Facebook, Instagram, and she was blocked the entire time. She has a history of cutting herself, mental health...but I'm a stalker? Everything they do covertly is projected onto you. It took months of diligent investigating to show the courts what the hell I was up against. THEY DO NOT CARE, ZHE IS A FEMALE.

      unfortunately courts tend to do that and it can take a LONG time to finally get the truth out. But I think a lot of the time we just find a different way to deal with and cope with the situation. What's your custody arrangement now?

      @@DSD true joint fifty fifty and only because I showed the court she was tantalizing me. It took two years. And I'm still getting harassed to this day via our family wizard. She likes to threaten going to court. Its like a bait tactic. So I just call the cops and send over the images of it and document it. But they never do anything like charge her with anything. And I've had numerous discussions with lawyers and they say you can apparently say that to people? Like,"I'm gonna sue you" or " I'm gonna take you to court" to me you shouldn't say your gonna do that and just go through the proper channels if you were going to do that. But she likes to send these all the time. And even when I don't respond to a lot of it she tries to use that against me as well. None of it has worked. Do not engage them at all. Everything will be twisted. Even if they are messaging you first and bait and switching. Three years of this hell and I'm finally starting to feel like I'm getting ahead. But the second I feel like I haven't heard anything out comes something from her. I just don't respond anymore. Everything goes through the proper channels, respectfully even if police don't listen and judges.

      Man that cycle gave me a lot of trauma - the same thing I'd start to feel like things were calming down and then out of nowhere I'd get whacked. It got to the point that when it did "kinda" stop I started having anxiety because I knew something was about to happen... Now I'm just numb to it and it sounds like you're pretty much there yourself. It is amazing how it seems, most of the time, women can get away with that stuff but if you tried even a part of what she was doing they would throw the book at you.

      They really do ruin our health. It’s “sick” to think a loved one wants to break us down, so it’s shocking to realize. I know my disability resulted from the confusion & stress I was experiencing. Keep putting your health first. ❤

    Nailed it! In the beginning, they want to break you. They count on you interacting like you did before, but you throw them off their game. Then they escalate until they are acclimated to you not reacting or breaking down, or they get bored & look for new games. Showing zero reaction is what works best. They want power over you even after they lose you, more than when they had you sometimes.

    Thank you for this video. I really needed. Had court today. I am so emotionally drained. He has supervised visits and was trying to stop them. He had a smirk on his face the entire time. The reports from the therapist said they need to continue. He had no concerns about how his behaviors have affected our child and of course I am to blame. The judge denied his request thankfully. Meanwhile I am left dealing with the aftermath. I was so close to breaking and finally gave in and put myself into therapy as well. I know we will get through this but today was rough.

    • @DSD
      @DSD  9 месяцев назад +1

      Most of the time a NPD LOVES the drama of court - so for them winning isn't actually getting what they want winning is dragging you into the drama and making you HAVE to endure it. I can completely understand how draining that is. I would imagine it will take you a few days to bounce back from that.

    Yea, my ex changed, she became abusive and manipulative, discarded me like trash twice . When I begged her not to leave, she just became more vindictive. Publically bashed me, tried to humiliate me, tried rubbing cheating in my face n every nasty thing you could think of, she even put me in jail with false accusations . Now she stays out this custody battle that I don't even see the point of, she's fighting to keep every thing the same, n I agreed. She's seeking child support. I agreed. But she refuses to sign anything. And since she had legal aid, it costs her nothing. But me a fortune
    Seeing me fail is more then likely wiser she wants. But I see something deeper behind the mask. I see someone who is so afraid of losing in life. That they will destroy someone who actually loved them, just to get a sensation of winning.
