Hopefully this video will throw some light on your cognitive dissonance and lead you towards the light in providing understanding and tools to help move forward, and experience a clearer vision emotionally, of exactly who you were dealing with.

      Close. You wished to fly with someone. They gift your own pair of wings, they are perfectly wrapped. They promise that they will teach you to fly with them (since they already have always had theirs) and promise you eternal sunshine, beautiful rainbows and the fairytale. "Don't be afraid, they will be with you always" was said. They breathe the breath of wind to keep you climbing high. Once you are "sky high" - the air is so thin it's euphoric. It's overwhelming, you're scared and they promise to keep you safe. When you are now higher than you have ever been, the rainbow begins to fade. They never wanted to work through the storms. But aren't rainbows just from little storms that worked their way through and have passed? They can't be associated with storms as they have nothing to do with them. Not one drop. They are above them. All they are concerned with is the rainbow and them being on the other end of it. Something doesn't seem right, and you can't help but to notice that the sun begins to set. The wind "beneath your wings" is no longer there. In fact, they steal back the air. You're now in a vacuum - empty space. They finally take back the wings, because they now think it's silly - you do not need them now and you didn't deserve them anyway. Alas, before you know it...the long and hard fall back to to the hard ground. It's earth shattering. You're now broken and you are now indeed alone.

    My narcissist ex and I used to watch a ton of horror movies together. The one night, we'd been drinking quite a bit, and as we saw a character on screen killed rather gruesomely, she bursts into laughter and says, totally nonchalantly, "Hurting people is so funny". At the time, I wrote it off as the alcohol talking, but knowing what I know now about narcissism, man... what a confession.

Patience , the light will come ! Two years since the discard . We have to go through hell to get to the other side , no short cuts . Their lack of true empathie comes out when animals are involved , a real unmasking of their cruelty and ego .

      Yes my dog was injured severely I belleve someone stabbed her and because of his position the police did not press charges. I can not wrap my head around what had occurred. Its so evil it was done to hurt me. I still am in complete shock a year and 7 months later. I now know why I took my daughter away from him 28 years ago before she was born. Got back with him when she was 18 and she had zero interest in being a part of his life. My daughter was getting married(our) and he didnt want me to go threatened to throw me out if I went to the shower. I said go ahead and I woke up and my dog was bleeding to death. Claimed it was dog on dog accident. Didnt wake me up and let her bleed all night in crate. Took to emergency vet 27 staples and chest tube. No accident. Police declined to press charges. I am heart broken. He acts like it was no big deal. These people are evil. I have never seen anything like it. Please be careful

    I become a remote colleague permanently in March 2020. After my 9th breakup with the Narc in September 2020, I decided it would be a good time to get a puppy to keep me company as I was home by myself each day. When I reunited with the Narc in late September 2020, I told him I would be picking up the puppy in early November. He acted excited for me and loved the pictures I had. His 2 children were excited too. The week I was to pick up the puppy, he told me that he was deeply hurt that he “had been replaced by a puppy” and that the puppy would destroy our relationship. I ended it with him on 11/14 and accused him of having someone “waiting in the wings” - turned out I was right. He hoovered me just 3 weeks ago and I took the bait. We didn’t speak but texted and I was pretty ugly to him after he said he would always care for me. They will say anything. I am so glad I am out of the 3 year hell I was in. Yes, it does get better. I am talking to a new man and it feels good to feel normal and free of the anxiety.

      I completely agree. The trauma bond almost killed me after everything he has done to me. It was all done with full intention. He thought he would brake my spirit or kill me. When I survived attempts on my life and everything 2 statements ring in my head 1- You must have a guardian angel I did not try to kill you. Gas was intentionally left on slowly and the dog alerted me. This was one of several attempts. 2- No matter what happens I want you to know you are one of the strongest ppl I have ever met, with that said he was intentionally causing problem after problem that did not break me. Everytime I went back escaping got harder and more terrifying. I can not grasp the evil of someone I was totally in love with. Then the trauma bond plays in your mind a year and a half from being out. How in the world can I love someone that has caused me so many problems, pain ect over a 3O year period? Its the hardest thing Ive ever been through.

    When I first met him he had a Labrador, he seemed totally in love with his dog and they sat next to each other in front of the TV.. I had to sit elsewhere, which didn't bother me as I thought it was quite sweet... Anyway, this dog was involved in a traffic accident and had an amputation, I realised that he had no idea how to nurse an animal and I did all the medication and care, and tried my best for this poor traumatised dog. I noticed that he didn't want the dog around him, and the dog didn't want to be near him either. It was extremely difficult because this was his pet. After I was discarded he hoovered and I asked about the dog. He told me he "got rid of it". Thankfully a really lovely lady had taken him, a lady who since ia scratching her head on why he isnt interested in keeping contact to see how the dog is doing. These people are not capable of love. They discard pets which I cannot understand. I was severely distressed over this as I couldn't take him with me, I was left homeless from the discard and had to return to an elderly parent in a small flat. These narcs destroy every living being that they can.

    And everybody, who has loved an empty case / shell must go through an very very painfully development to become free, but after this development , evolution you are completely free and more stronger than before. Also you are highly trained in mimical and bodylanguage, to read between lines, to hear between words, you have developed a highly sensitively feeling, more than ever before.

    In October 2020, I lost my dog at the age of 15 months in an unexpected death. I needed time to heal, my narc EX , and I’m so glad he’s an ex , he decided to go out for ‘coffees’ with someone else , because he also needed HEALING. Hahahahahah. He said he also needed to confide in someone , since I had my family to lean on , that new girl was his person to lean on. After that I caught him in bed with her , he triangulated me , asked me if I’d marry him or should he marry this other girl who was standing right in front of me with the narc.
    I’m soooooo glad I am done with the pain and trauma. 1.5 years and the pain has gone. The experiences remain but they don’t make me cry or sad any more. He hoovered me with sending pictures of him with yet another new girl. Lolll. The last time it happened , I was jealous. This time when it happened , I felt bad for the new girl.
    I still wish him the best because it’s no good of a life to keep looking for new supply and live and breathe on supply all the time. Getting bothered if you don’t get supply. What a pity party. Guess what , he can go fuck himself. I am very glad to be done with him.

    I think that is really good advice about a year on from being NC. I am almost 4 months now and the longest I have gone without contact in 7 years. For me it is the loss, from speaking every day and him coming to mine etc. to nothing. I am getting there about reconciling myself to the fact that he is a raving narc and I am better off without him for sure as his treatment of me was appalling. That in itself shows the scary power the trauma bond! I have to adjust to life on my own and will in time. He wasn't particularly nice about animals either! He would call me pathetic when I stroked dogs.

    I'm sorry you went through that fear w your beautiful dog Remy.
    My beloved indoor kitty went strangely missing during a time I was away 5 days rehabilitating from adrenal failure during the disengagement malice campaign.
    The exe had ghosted off w new supply, but how my indoor cat went missing was always a mystery blamed on the realtor who looked at me like WTF was I talking about.
    HG helped me make sense of a potential the narc hurt the cat so I would blame a realtor and look crazy.
    We had raised several dogs and a few cats together.
    He hated the cats and all the animals were a problem to him but one dog he had prior to meeting me.
    But he blamed that dogs death even tho he abandoned him...even tho I invited the dog come live w us...he denied the dog live w us.
    When the dog died years later while raising other boxers, oh I heard it was my fault for almost 15 years on and off.
    I can tell you numerous spine chilling stories about the exe narc and our other animals.
    Its enough for me to stay far away.
    That man was a psychopath.
    Once you know, you go and stay far away...
    Paula,
    Much love n thanks to you and Remy!

    My god!!!!!!!! Rehoming remi? The narc, who gave me my dog, when he broke up with me. I broke down completely and asked him, "Can you take care of my dog.. and I will take her back when I'm in a better place. And he said, what if you call me for her one day and I tell you that I unleashed her on the street and can't find her anymore.. she is gone.. it created so much conflict inside me. I already was completely gone. On top of that, he said of abandoning my dog. I kept her and didn't allow him at all to even touch her after that. The thing is, he was the one who gifted her to me, and he seemed so nice to her all the time. Now after this video of yours I'm thinking backwards and wondering if he really cared for her or if she was an object to keep him company and make him look like a good boy. Or was she just an excuse to stay in my apartment... this is so shit. I still think abt those words he said some time and they trigger me so badly.

    Hi Paula
    Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and knowledge about this subject. I have used your videos in my healing process and it is actually really strange because in my process, I have faced very hard times and I still do...but watching your videos, listening to your voice have made me calm...like physically. I have experienced my body feeling nervous ....like before an exam ...every morning 5 o'clock when I open my eyes my body and mind has been nervous and when I am watching your videos I begin to feel more relaxed. It feels like you are a friend far away but yet just here and sometimes I am thinking 'how cool it could be to go to Ireland and visit Paula'....laughing...I know it sounds strange but in the need of a friend who really understand the dynamics in a narc relationship you are an amazing help....THANK you for that. I have also noticed that I am searching for stories and examples that I can resonate with...relationships that looked like mine. I find peace with knowing that others have experienced something similar to me. Have you told about your relationship in some of your videos? I have seen SO many of your videos and now I'm so curious to know what you have been through. Hope to hear from you. All my thoughts and hopes from Denmark

    Interesting segment about the pets. I remember my narc ex gf being “annoyed” with me because I still loved my ex wife’s dog. And I remember telling her, that dog had nothing to do with my divorce, and in fact, was the sweetest dog I’ve ever known. And then after the discard, she told me not to get a cat because they stink up the place with their waste. Mind you we weren’t even in a relationship, certainly were not living with each other, and instead of recognizing that animals for me are emotional support, she just dismisses all of that, and projects her feelings of how she views pets onto me. It’s absolutely maddening.

  • @valb9963

    The narc sucked me into adopting 3 black kittens because he said he wanted one for himself and we just couldn't leave the one sibling. "They are our babies", he said, I'll pay half. He never even bought food or litter. When I asked, who will watch the cats when I go on vacation, ( I meant when we go on vacation),he said. "I will" . He then said he can't be tied down with a cat. We all were discarded. He just wanted to see what he could get away with. I was under some kind of toxic spell.

    I remember one incident with my now ex-narcissist.
    We were planning a trip, and had just gotten our passports and went to Wendy's to grab some lunch.
    As we sat in the drivethru waiting, an older couple pulled up, the man got out and went to help his wife get out of the car and walk in, she looked like she was struggling to move.
    She said to me "I bet you wouldn't do that for me."
    I was so blown away that she would think that, let alone say it, I didn't even know how to respond.
    I'd also just paid for her passport and lunch.

    However, they are masters & very skilled at trapping & grooming people to get what they want.. Best is to go NO CONTACT, move on and start healing yourself..

    Oh you're so right, when you look back at everythibg now it's so mind blowing! Everything with them is premeditated! Like who wakes up thinking how can I manipulate today? I understand you about the dog, its so insane. Ex narc supposedly loved my dog and she's perfect I can't live without her, but then I would go crazy thinking why is he so like that in love with her in front of people and behind closed doors it's like he cared one day and the next like she's not even there?! I swear I would argue with him a lot about it coz my head would spin. You say you love her and promote her and you do this and that for her, but then I'm the one taking care of her 95% of the time, but he'd then make me look like the bad one if she got sick and I don't care and she's sick because of me and I'm a bad dog mum, that would kill me. I even said she's not an accessory where you can pick and choose when you want her. The first msg I recieved after 6 months of no contact after the brutal discard, with no remorse no apology or anything (leaving me for God knows who he was grooming as he's still hiding) asked about the dog and misses her and if he can have her for a weekend? I was like WTF?! You a**hole, thats the first thing after everything you've done to me you ask? Then you think I'm just gonna hand her to you? Hell NO! Should've thought about that before your big secret came out! I shouldn't have responded but I thought I'd test him see how much he does care or miss her, told him she's been to the vet and needs teeth taken out. I got no response! Once again, no care and no empathy, just a controlling game!

    I can't ever get to "how was it in the relationship" because I've been so conditioned to ignore the reality of the dismal situation and instead love despite the legitimate pain caused by someone I deeply love out of compassion, loyalty and very profound understanding & belief that they are doing the best they can. The fact it's not enough (causes extreme pain & an erosion of self worth and overwhelming feelings of neglect) doesn't get put into the equation because all that matters is the Other is hurting and lost. I realize how fucked up that sounds and yet it's my reality... this goes back to loving a mother who tried to kill herself in my presence more than once - and more than once saving her life. Loving someone so important to your own survival and needing their love in return but understanding on a soul level they can't EVER reciprocate sets you up to love in a manner that is sure to bring heartache and suffering. Truly 💔'ing.

    This is a really insightful, and somewhat upsetting video. I am so glad you stood your ground about Remi. But your video also resonated because I realised there were lots of things you wanted to say to him in hindsight, but somehow didn't feel able to say at the time. When I look back on my interactions with 'my' narcissist, there are so many things I wish I'd said to her - so many things I wish I'd challenged her on - and somehow whenever I'm face to face with her, I always forget what I want to say. This makes me feel like they have some kind of ability to block our emotional response? I like to think of myself as being quite sceptical and objectively minded, but there are times when I wonder if narcissists have some sort of spiritual link to us! Anyway I hope you are ok and keeping well :)

The dog was the only dog i ever saw with Rings under the eyes, and she always wanted to give Orders, and only her. She was jelous when i petted the dog, she was envious of animals, people and even plants. Right now, i see her as a nasty chitinous fly, she even dressed in toxic " fly colours "!

    Luckily, I was born six weeks too early without much contact to other human beings. This made me a bit weird, I guess, but I never let the narcissist 100% into my heart. Yes, I tried harder and harder to be a good wife and mother, but deep in my heart I knew I did a good job and didn’t need his validation. I rejected his criticism because I felt it was unfair and not justified. I left him after he started an affair and I miss being a family, but I sure don’t miss him! Looking back I see that he put in zero effort into the relationship.

    I never wanted him back , I was embarrass , I felt rob of years and youth , financially I could have done better , I felt bad for my children even though they are not babies youngest teenager but they were so lost - we were so lost as in who the hell is this person ! They were left wondering how does he really feel about each of them ! Happy I discarded his behind ! Thanking God for his Grace and Marcy and peace ! My children hurt + mine Never have I ever wanted his behind back not then or now ! The oldest still are still no contact their personal choices! The youngest still enjoy being around him - however knows and accept him as a manipulative person. !

    I have two types of friends: the ones who knew what I was dealing with, and the ones who became flying monkeys.
    Fortunately, I never got quite addicted to the narcissist.
