    Unfortunately, infidelity tends to go hand in hand with narcissism. Especially, somatic narcissism. Narcissists believe EVERYTHING they need is external, including self-worth, self-esteem, validation, etc. Those things are what make up our inner world and we are supposed to develop and cultivate them within/on our own. Narcissists DEPEND on people to supply those things for them. Because we cannot (nor, are we supposed to) supply every want/need of a partner, narcissists are always on the lookout for "better supply". They will always gravitate toward anyone they feel can meet the needs/wants their spouse isn't (and can't). Narcissists are unstable and they cannot soothe themselves. They cannot meet their own needs and their needs/wants are constantly changing. Narcissists are black holes. They are human abyss' of unmet needs/wants. Even if you gave them everything, they'd still want MORE... All while giving NOTHING in return. Narcissists are also pathologically bored. They do not experience boredom the way normal adults do. They're like children. Once they become bored, they tend to throw their toys (people) in a corner to collect dust. Then, they search for new ones... Untilllll, they realize that their newest toy isn't as fun. Or, it doesn't function as well as the old toy did. Then, they'll go digging in the corner to find that old toy (the reason their relationships tend to be off and on). People are objects meant to keep them occupied and entertained. The newer the toy, the better/more exciting it is. However, EVERYONE will inevitably lose their shine with the narcissist. You must accept their reality and realize that it's NOT ABOUT YOU and it never was. This is also the point when it becomes crucial to sit your ego on the curb. Your ego will want to fight to be seen. Your ego will want to fight to prove you're enough. Your ego will feel it's "worthy" of the narcissist and fight to "keep" them... But, again: IT'S NOT ABOUT YOU. Most narcissists are extremely irresponsible. Many of them marry to secure stability. Or, to have someone they can count on to help with bills to free up their resources. It also ensures they'll have somewhere safe to land when they fall - because they always f*** up... Do yourself a favor and pull that rug of security out from under them and save YOURSELF. Narcissists do not have a moral compass. They do not respect the union of marriage. It'll always be a one-sided arrangement with you being the giver that's making their life easier and them being the taker that's making your life harder. We deserve the same love, attention, support and understanding that we give our spouses. You will never get it from someone suffering with NPD. Moreover, if you feel sure that your husband might never cheat on you, you might have to rethink. Most wives in marriages are shocked when they find out their husband cheating, and it happens more with people who never thought they would cheat. This is why you have to take the tiniest suspicion carefully. If your husband is cheating on you, the best and probably the only guaranteed way to catch him is to spy on their phones. However, spying on a phone is not something you can do without any external help unless you have the James bond level of spy skills. In such case you will need an expert phone spyier Metaspyhub@gmail. com for the purpose,,,

      But then how dumb it is to live a secret life when it is totally possible to enter an open relationship or polygamous relationship with full consent of all adults.....
      I think it's not even the attraction to a sex drive to another person, but the thrill of hiding and living in secret(as if a criminal).
      But even if the relationship is monogamous and exclusive and you feel like it's too boring all of a sudden and you develop a crush on someone else, STILL just talk and breakup with the one you don't want any more and go to the next one. It's a whole lot simpler than living a double life.
      So, making it so much harder, it's ridiculous and dumb.

Well a Facebook group called are we dating the same guy revealed he’s dating at least 3 different women now. I’ve blocked him for good. I’m glad he’s been outed.

    It's always shocking when you find out the depths narcissists can plunge to. A former friend of mine had the key to his neighbours' home and was great friends with them. When they were out, he was using the home to bring back prostitutes behind his partner's back.

It really resonated with the physical abuse he put me through too. Honestly, thank you.

    Almost 20 years ago, I discovered a secret email account with three women my husband was romantically and sexually involved with online. At the time, I thought it was an addiction. I searched everywhere on what it was and how to reach him because he was in stonewalling, gaslighting me and denyung there was anything going on.doesnt matter if it is physical or not, it is a betrayal of trust. It ultimately ended our 35 year marraige

    The audacity with which they gaslight you is shocking. When I asked him who the creams for taming unruly hair in his bedside cabinet belong to, he said - "they're mine. I buy in bulk". Side note: he's virtually bald. He left the room and came back with a series of girlie items that he doesn't want me to think belong to another woman in case I come across them: pink tweezers, fluffy pink winter socks. 😂 The attitude is: I have nothing to hide. The infidelity is in plain sight!

    I get what you’re saying as far as the high, the infatuation of something so perfect you fantasize about. But what about your wife? How would you know she is the one for you and that you’re not in this mindset? You’ve cheated, gaslighted and manipulated her and those around you, including the ones you’ve had affairs with. How would you know if she’s the one or someone you had an affair with is the one? How would one deal with this?

      @Betty Carmella just a question . Never stated I would go through with it. It's sometimes awesome to know how the oppent works ticks thinks. Can't help to get as much understanding on said topic. It's necessary insight because though they have similar characteristics in how they deal with ppl, they're some who are not the same in behavioral actions. No narcissist is the same as the last or that which may come. Best to be prepared either way. Knowledge wise.
