    One thing I noticed about narcs. They have no use for anybody that doesn't kiss their butts, spoil them or make their lives as comfortable as possible. Kids are useful tools to prop themselves up. When they lose someone they consider close, they are not really grieving the person, they are grieving the loss of supply.

      “Used and abu$ed”. My ex used to tell me that she was going to “use me and abu$e me”. I thought she just meant it in a cute way as she was very into the sexual aspect of our relationship.
      The moment she started abu$e, I ended it. She couldn’t believe how willing I was to throw away the souls mate relationship that we had. I told her that I had the power to make her a distant memory. She called me crazy so I had to prove it to her. This was 12 years ago.
      Funny thing was that she knew all about my narcissistic ex as I told her all her tactics on manipulation. She had to be thinking to herself while calling my ex “crazy”, “gee, I hope this guy doesn’t figure out that I’m the exact same way.” LMAO. The thing they don’t realize is that we only get stronger after discarding every narcissist. It becomes easier to see in people and walk away from.

    I also wanted to share that I learned an invaluable lesson with the malignant narcissist whom I finally found the strength to leave. When I met him he told me he had a thousand friends in the small community in which we live. It seemed to be true because everywhere we went people would come up and say, "We love this guy!" "J is amazing." "He is such a great guy." His ex even described him as "a sweet guy."
    In time I started to realize that they were all sycophants.........and so was he.......kind of an unspoken agreement to the effect that "I'll make you look good if you made me look good."
    I also later discovered that this guy was of the petty criminal persuasion and I expect that many of them were also playing a crooked game, and terrified of going against him. Nothing authentiic about any of these people nor any of their relationships, that's for sure.

All of them are retired and go out to lunch once a month to keep in touch. They asked him once and have never asked him again. This was 3 yrs ago. They don't call or text. The only "friend" he has that he talks to on occasion is not right in the head. Texting him the same thing over and over just hours apart and only talks to him when he needs a ride.

They admired my husband because he was so "spiritual". If we ever had anyone over for dinner, it was to network within the church. NO ONE knew the real us. NO ONE knew what was going on in our home. We didn't hang out with anyone "just for fun". The best man and ushers at our wedding were people he chose to "get points" with. He had no "buddies" to pick from.

    It can be so tragic when they actually destroy lives for their own selfish gains.
    No one can call them out because they will plot to play the victim and get others to feel sorry for them.
    They prey on your kindness and good nature but are quick to point out if you are strict or firm with them.

They need to get in trouble because they are getting away with crimes. No different than a rapist or child molester because in my case the covert narcissist preyed upon me.

    I had close friends until I was about 26, then I decided to cut them off. It's hard to have friends when we don't feel on the same level and we don't want to drag them down. I had to focus on my own growth and self-respect. I haven't had friends for almost a decade. It is what it is. We can't hurt others and we can't let others hurt us.

My narcissist ex-husband did not have a single friend. I encouraged him to get some acquaintances and discovered no one wanted to listen to him talk and talk and talk about himself. He is in his 70s now back in his country and is hanging out with his family that's it.. even when I would ask for conversation it would be all about him not what we could do for the summer or the weekend with the kids .

    My mom now has so-called friends that occasionally call to see how she is doing. These people came around more frequently when my father was alive. But not real interaction like others have. People respected my dad & he was a kind, likable man. My mom was the reason he couldn't have close bonds with others. She demanded all his attention. Just a couple of people enquire about her rarely. I think this out of respect for my dad. When people were starting friendly relationships with my parents, they eventually dwindled off if they started seeing red flags from my mom. The ones that stuck it out were the ones who felt sorry for my good-natured dad.

    A Narcissist who I knew well, abused his parental family and had no real friends either. That is such a high level, of insanity, when you think about survival. His Mother passed away, so the fight was on, about inheritance. That must have been a 'bloody' knock-down fight. For sure, there is no return for him, to see Siblings, but his Mother appointed her super wealthy best friend, to take care of her Son, after her passing. He is in many ways helpless, but is so aggravating, that he is intolerable. He also, can be manipulated., if you know him. That's pitiful.

    It reminds me of a narc girl (she can't be called a woman, from the top of her 35 years old) I unfortunately knew. Everytime she showed up, she became "the spotlight girl" (it was easy because she was quite attractive). That's when "the party was on": she started drinking, drinking, drinking... And her "friends" not only did nothing to stop her but also was filling up her cup with "only heaven knows what". It always ended the same way: she couldn't even walk a straight line, ended up knocked out on the sidewalk, her face and clothes were a mess, and there it goes... Where were her "friends" at that time? Nowhere to be found!
    Edit: OK, I hadn't made myself so clear, let me add one point or two. She barely spent her own money, most of the time she was almost begging for someone to pay her a drink, so she could "do her performance".

The other was once invited to a party right after payday and woke up the next morning laying on the sidewalk, abandoned by his 'friends' and without his wallet.

He is the life of the party to the point of his friends rallying around him. He’s always the loudest and the “funniest” too but couldn’t take a joke from me except for in the love bombing stage🙄.

    Such a fantastic perspective Danish. My first husband put no effort into keeping relationships from the past alive, or investing in new relationships. And, I could never get anywhere near him emotionally. Ironically, he shared a story with me early on in our relationship that I look back on now and recognize as a RED FLAG.
    He told me that he once rescued a man who was in an avalanche. He expressed anger that he was never given a reward. At our wedding, his best man told his story about how great my husband-to-be was, using this one story as an example of his heroism........the fact that he carried that anger for not being compensated with him took all that heroism away.

    I got tired of her when she was harassing me on her own, they weren’t around, and I told her she had no friends. They were just pretending. I recall how that made her mad, and how two years later, that declaration came true as her pretend friends all went to different junior high.

    being immigrants my mother and "father" do have their friends circle that sticks together like all immigrants do. but it works only as long my mother is there. she does have real friendships in that circle but my "father" is laughed at and ridiculed. i've also seen him frantically and forcefully try to befriend other ppl, just to show that he has friends.
    also, i have, and so many times, seen him make phone calls in front of me, and tried to be buddy like with random ppl. as if i didnt have the ordeal to know him from childhood and exactly know that nobody talks to him because he cant talk. he really cant have any real conversation with anyone. its always a staging. and its really pure violence. i cant remember him ever asking anything. he can only dish out. asking questions and taking in information from other ppl is something he just doesnt know how to do.
    and its pure energy drain if a person just wants something and never gives. the demon never asks anybody how they are and what they are up to. the demon literally prepares topics to force on other ppls face. if narcissists arent violent and openly devilish, they play a role. and if they have really low IQ like my demon father does, its just more painful to watch.
