10 Secrets A Narcissist Doesn't Want You To Know

[@patriciajoseph3035]

They don't want others to know that they are damaged, addicted to stuff, fear rejection, fear being abandoned and generally not managing life well. They are major impressionists

Quite often, my ex husband would enthusiastically brag to my 4 daughters about yet another brilliant or talented or amazing or successful woman that we just met. He would highlight all her good qualities as if to say, “see daughters, you should be wonderful like this lady!” While I, their mother, stood by feeling useless, ashamed and inferior.

Crazy accurate, watch the whole video 1. There is nothing wrong with you, it is them who is being not enough 2. They are afraid of humiliation, of what they do behind the mask 3. They fear rejection and being alone, they are very codependent 4. You are not inferior to 'someone else 'who they are comparing you with 5. They do not care about you. Once you're out of the relationship, you're out of they're head and life 6. They have double-life with different sources of love supply 7. They are deeply insecure and they project their insecurities on you. They think that when they feel insecure it's your fault 8. They are jealous of you and want to isolate you. They want everything to be theirs and see you as a toy 9. Narcissism is a defense system. It's all about avoidance, they do not want to face with trauma 10.

My mother literally compared me to a toy doll growing up. She expressed her 'inappropriate sexuality' through me, by making me out to be a common strumpet, all while chastising me for even thinking about anything remotely sexual, and taught me that sex should only feel good for the man. How frigged up do you think my relationships were because of that kind of teaching?!?

You're 100% right about the money 🙃

[@janedoe5229]

So true. My sister was with a narcissist. He would never let her travel to see her grown kids for the holidays (and he would not let her go alone). He would say, "Explain to me why I should waste my time and my gas to go and see those idiots". But after she left him, he MADE SURE that he went to spend the holidays with them, for the express purpose of preventing her from seeing them. And they lived a 5 hour drive away, out of state.

[@OL1820]

Narcs don’t want you to know that they cannot feel true joy; it’s short lived and superficial at best! Therefore, the best revenge is being genuinely happy and joyful in your new life after them. They will live their life chasing this emotion and will always envy this quality in others because they are empty vessels!

[@bbuster5667]

And they can’t stand if their family friends or aquaintances like you or talk to you. So they tell both sides that the other one says bad things about you and not to talk to that person anymore And then they tell the other parties lies about you as well.

[@lykitapledger9113]

The narcissist I was with had another life from the life we had together. Together for 12 years, he and I had a nice home, nice cars, everything any woman would ever want or need. When he would go to work out of town, all of his other supply would be there waiting. Some knew me as his wife, but he would tell them things like he only stays with me because he feels sorry for me, while home he acted like I was everything to him. People always thought we were the perfect couple so in love, but he had several other women in his life also. He was the perfect husband to all of our friends and my family, but a complete scary monster behind closed doors! After I started standing up to him and letting him know I knew he was a liar the abuse got worse. After 12 years together, he called me on a Friday after work, said he was leaving, left the marriage, our home, all of his things and I haven’t seen him sense. He left me with no money, no vehicle and no where to go. I am now working on putting my life back together.

When you said that they are jealous and see you as a toy... Yes!

Envy is their most guarded secret, they want to be a source of envy - I’m sure they don’t realise normal people don’t suffer with any envy & don’t envy them. Their conflict occurs when they can no longer suppress envy, to envy of an inferior person (they must be superior) the inferior person is punished for allegedly causing their overwhelming envy, it consumes them every minute of the day. It’s not rational & people must quietly escape by getting discarded (let them discard to avoid the stalking)

[@francoisgouws7288]

Envy fuels all narcissists!

[@janedoe5229]

Very interesting. Thank you for pointing out about the envy. I loved to read non-fiction, so I know a lot of random information. (I'm good at Trivia Pursuit.) In particular, I loved Shakespeare, Gilbert and Sullivan, and I could swing dance. I exposed my narcissist to these things. My narcissist was not well read and did not finish college, and I see now that he was envious that I seemed so "cultured". He was always saying (with disgust in his voice), "You think you are smarter than everyone else!" I would say, "No I don't!" We could fight about it until I was crying, I would be saying, "I am not smarter than anyone! Everyone is smarter than me!" Then he was disgusted with me because I had groveled myself into being a worm. I found out later that his new supply was so impressed with him because he was familiar with Shakespeare, Gilbert and Sullivan, and he could swing dance (none of which were part of his life before me). Plus he wore all those classy shirts that I bought him. I told him that his new supply was not in love with him, but she was in love with me, because if it was not for me, he would not have that cultured facade to impress her.

[@sonlya2010]

[@Hawaiiansky11]

One of these online therapists brought tears to my eyes when he declared, "The narcissist didn't target you (as their scapegoat) because you were so bad; they did it because you are so good." That is 100% true! You have all the things they want. But instead of trying to cultivate those things in themselves, they wickedly try to take them from you, or destroy them in you, thus justifying their continuing to treat you like garbage.

Being raised by a narcissistic parent, I was well into my 30's before I understood, that there was nothing wrong with me and that my narcissistic parent had projected all the insecurities, rage, and self-loathing on to me and my siblings. Maybe this is petty, but sometimes get a little vindictive satisfaction that this parent is now old and feeble, living off social security and her children's generosity, knowing that in spite of everything, those children have all managed to have successful marriages and happy, meaningful lives.

I recorded his rants since end of June and he’s gone from love bombing to devalue then ‘we are putting the house up for sale, this has been since 8 days after moving in. Then the same cycle again over and over, but when he threatened to follow me around the house and annoy me so I would hit him and he’d phone the police and have me arrested, he blew it. Next time he said the house was going up for sale, I told him to do it, full on panic mode, he was practically begging me to call off the estate agent an hour before he arrived. We sold the house, he pulled out and now buying my share. He’s got a new victim and has their mobile phone calls on loud speaker so I hear them. I couldn’t care less, she’s welcome to him. In a year she will be where I am now….leaving him hopefully, just like all the rest have including 3 ex wives, I was nearly number 4, but to be honest, it would never have got that far, that was a hook to keep me.

True

[@freud5898]

Yes, @davidmarshall40. That's why they act differently with every group of people. They see how other people talk/feel/look/act, so they try to fit in without having the vaguest idea about the values/social standing/experiences of those people. My narcissistic mother hated children (especially her own). Around new friends in later life, she bragged on their grandchildren/actually hugged children/asked about their ballgames, etc. In real life, she never allowed us to participate in games of any kind. We were shocked to see her 'new' behavior -- with our own eyes. Those people thought she was a wonderful friend/mother/grandmother, but we knew better. In childhood, we were seriously malnourished because she didn't feed us, and we wore cardboard in our shoes. Extracurricular activities that required uniforms/fees/transportation/equipment were not even considered. Besides all such things were 'sinful,' as well as unnecessary and expensive. Her new friends (who were normal/successful people) had no idea she was faking/mimicking what she saw them do around their grandchildren. It was all an act, and we saw through it.

One prime thing that they never want you to realize is that they are much weaker than they look, with their fake aura of confidence. Truly strong individuals can calmly live alone, but a narc can never, ever live alone. That is their greatest terror, and the best move against them is suddenly abandoning them. They're also rendered rather stupid by their ego, so they are extremely easy to remove. Keep insulting them brutally and they are sure to leave. They are slaves to their own ego and can't even think of their own advantages when it comes to preserving that ego, which is where Machiavellians differ heavily from them. In a Mach's eyes, they are not very clever or strategic, their ego is their biggest hurdle. Also lie about how others are insulting them behind their back. Narcs are often very paranoid, and will keep cutting ties everywhere they think they are not worshipped.

[@benjamincole250]

They have these fears yet they do everything to cause u to do these things to them

[@Gloria-z4p8u]

I would like for others to know they cry when they do abusive things afterward to get sympathy then they get supply as if you hurt them

[@SS-qo3nt]

This is so true that they are even more codependent than codependents. If you ignore the hoover, then wait a couple of days and throw some breadcrumbs to them to see how they react, the perk up right away and start responding as if they are meeting a brand new person instead of the "real you" they despise! It's very eerie; they have no self, and it's like a ghost looking at you and speaking back to you, initially. (at least with covert narcs.)

[@charlesstevenson5141]

I've watched some uplifting videos the past few days and it really brought out my thoughts and making feel I am worth something when my ex wife and I got back together to work things out. She is always stopping me mid sentence and contradicting everything I say unless it is a topic where I am blaming my actions because of my childhood trauma. I've been lost all these years. Being put down, belittled, nothing I ever do is enough. She makes me feel completely worthless, zero self esteem, zero confidence in myself and just as I start to stand back up she pulls me back down again. She is codependent as hell and never goes more than about a month between relationships. She even went and moved in with a friend of mine and started dating him 2 weeks after she left before we could even get the divorce started. He saw through her BS and cut her loose (although he was guilty of becoming physically and mentally violent himself while drinking). She immediately ran back to me. Seemed all good at first but I was hesitant to let her lay in bed with me after only two nights of being here and I couldn't figure why I felt this way about it. She seemed normal for a couple of months then the switch flipped again. Her first therapist even suggested me as being a narcissist but I don't think the truth was being told and she projected me as the bad person. I have made my share of mistakes and I hold myself accountable for my poor behavior in the past but this time, I have done absolutely nothing wrong and even made sure of it. Calling me a narcissist completely destroyed me and nearly brought me to my own demise. Thankfully a friend walked up on me and caught me in the act of trying to hang my self from a tree at the back of my property. I didn't know such manipulation was possible. She drives me to the point of wanting to commit suicide but then applies just enough care and generosity to keep me from going off the deep end then she's back to the same crap. She blames me for not being intimate and emotionally available. Now after seeing videos like this, I recognize she is weaponizing my empathy against me all the while making me feel like I am a complete failure and full of nothing but apathy. She spends most of her time outside of work playing on her phone. I rarely ever touch mine as I have a strong dislike for phones and social media. It pisses her off when she saw that I am completely OK with being alone and being 100% fully independent. She also just recently stated that she was never going to leave me again (she has no other sources to feed her) but if I ever did end up in another relationship that she would make it an absolute total nightmare and do anything to make sure that myself and who I am with are absolutely miserable. She has been diagnosed with bipolar 1, CPTSD, borderline personality disorder and shows traits of ADHD (inattentive) while I know I have. I'm chronically depressed 95% of the time and being a over the road truck driver, I look forward to the day I can leave home and stay gone for weeks or even months at a time just to avoid what I didn't understand. I'm trying to find a way out. After a 11 year marriage (trauma bonded), she used our daughters to keep me within reach. Often times sending me links to songs and emails telling me about how bad I messed up but how she missed me while with this other guy. Its breaking my heart into a million pieces knowing how bad this is going to hurt me and having the feeling of guilt trying to leave her but on the other side, I don't know why I feel so bad when I don't know she really is. We dated back in middle school, her mom moved her across town, we never spoke again then in our early 20's, we got back together and she was pushing marriage on me which I didn't want at the time. I have nothing but regret of all the years I spent with her. She knows everything about me and all of my vulnerabilities and I'm afraid of her using it of that stuff against me. She keeps telling me I need to seek professional help. I was doing really well on self healing when we divorced but now I'm back at square one except now I'm older, wiser and more informed. I've reached a point of tuning out the verbal abuse by going to my hobbies and self isolating but then that gets throw back in my face "you don't love me, you're always ignoring me and acting like you don't care and so on". Now I'm stuck in this trap. The hell I have finally come to realize she created for me. The past almost two years we have been back together, I can feel and hear myself inside screaming for help but on the outside I wear a mask around those dear to me (which are few because of her) and act as if everything is OK because I feel like if I do open up about it, I'm just a burden on them. I carried the guilt, shame, blame and heartbreak of our divorce but I'm not sure how about how to feel about it this time when its me walking away. I'm alone with no one in my corner to help and she has and will again turn people against me to make me out to be the bad guy so here I am ranting my inner most thoughts into the comment section of a KZbin video.

[@curli-lettey4319]

Let go of the guilt just as much as the guilt shes laying on you as to not leave. It's time to throw a monkey wrench in this karmic cogwheel that's repeating a toxic cycle in your life. It's time to transform from the caged in caterpillar and bloom into that free butterfly.

[@MrHuntingClaw]

From the sound of it, you've already mentioned you were much happier alone, with her out from your life, ideally, you two shouldn't live in the same place, what I find unfortunate however is that she seem to have your kids? Divorce court is too heavily skewed towards giving the mother custody it's ridiculous, those daughters of yours will likely become heavily influenced by their mother and potentially become as messed up because of her, if you want any ammunition for court and whatnot, you should start recording your interactions with one another, as it's better to have some failsafe rather than being completely naked should things go too far, on that end, I would likely force her out of the house or move somewhere else and block her number so I never have to deal with them again, because clearly it's a lost cause to interact with someone who only make you miserable. If all narcissists can truly not be reasoned with, then trying to be logical with them won't work, that may be an uncomfortable truth, but it's better to know it than not.

[@stephaniejosey9499]

My narcissist ex husband was afraid I would discover his double life. After 13 years I discovered he was sleeping with several women and one man! Supply doesn't always have to be another woman.

[@RavenGirl333]

Everything you said is so accurate. There truly is nothing there! Also know that many of the male narcs engage intimately with other men for supply. They do not have a fixed “type” or any type whatsoever it is whomever is around at the time. If they come back know they are low on supply and save yourself and say no.

[@JayThe0]

The only thing the narcissist was good for, was making me aware of the other narcissists in my life. Including my family. Thank god for the clarity

[@RKX_Errant]

Excellent summation! In my observations and direct experience with narcissists, abandonment also translates to a narcissist's forced forfeiture of control. Thus, not only does the narcissist lose supply, how can this lost supply affect the narcissist's "reputation"? Now, the narcissist must begin perceived damage control; a smear campaign against that lost supply.

[@Hawaiiansky11]

Oh, they've been working on assassinating your character LOOOONG before you discard them. They are always playing the 'end game,' because they intuit that eventually, all their supply will be done with their b.s. and thus the narc must make that supply look bad to mutual friends, acquaintances, supervisors, etc. so that when the SHTF, they can say to said mutuals, "See, I told you (she was always angry! or he was mean to me!)"

[@deirdreday8731]

I was married to a Covert Narcissist for almost 50 yrs. Had five children. I recognise everything you say. Very Accurate indeed. I went through everything you have discussed. When my children became adults and had good careers, then married had their children and my x Narc was still abusing me on 5 Counts of abuse recognised in law I told him to go. He hung about for a year me paying the Bill's. Him Throwing me crumbs and trying to suck me into his evil web again. He tried pathetically to apologise. No eye contact or genuine apology just vacant words no emotion, no passion no conviction. I was not being fooled again. When a year was up he went with plenty of pocket money he had saved for not paying the Bill's. Two or three private pensions and walked into a rented house around the corner from his only sister and near a brother who also lived near. He has been playing the victim to them and my adult children. He now gives the 16 grandchildren money for birthdays etc. which he never did when with me. That and Christmas, Easter and Summer Holidays etc. were expected to be covered with my monetary contributions. Now he curries favour by contributing himself. I also have realised the Narc has been devaluing me to his late Mother and his other family members over the years. There are much more personal abuses I cannot discuss on Social Media. A Narc is the devil in disguise. I really believe this. From he left 6 yrs. ago. I got the family home and I have to say that since he left the house it is so much more peaceful. It's as if the evil spirits left with him. Visitors have remarked on the ambience in my home now. I am still healing from the most Horrendous time of my life. I have my Faith and believe Almighty God got me through. I prayed hard, worked hard and pushed hard to ignore his insults and 30yrs. of cheating, lying, gaslighting, stone walling, devaluation and much more. I buried a lot avoided the Narc, went to bed early out of his way. My children were Paramount so once they were

[@deirdreday8731]

Contd., once my children were settled and the Narc.was still cheating with a female work colleague and had admitted to. I told him to go. It was the best thing I ever did. I am almost 74yrs. so I am not likely to meet someone now who will REALLY LOVE ME. Still, "Better for me to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all". I have my children and grandchildren whom I love with ALL MY HEART AND SOUL that's the purest love of all I am more than happy with that.❤

Brother can we talk each other about our experience

[@jeffreyreynolds4732]

Ahh... Reflections on My Past. Brings a warm smile to My face. Narcissists know it's inevitable that their different Sources will Cross Paths. When this Happens, the Narc goes into Sheer Panic Mode. They Create, or try to, Animosity between the Sources before Crossing Paths. Then the Narc does Everything Humanly Possible to NOT let the Sources be alone together. The Narc has to Control the Situation. They don't realize that their Behavior is so Suddenly Odd to Everyone Present and Unless You have Any knowledge about Narcissism, You can't Figure Out what's this Sudden High Strangeness. They are not God, although they Will Claim to be Higher and Mightier than God. The sources wil end up with moments to talk without the Narc Present Contolling the Conversation. They find their God Power isn't so Great afterall. The Sources will learn- They actually have No Animosity toward each other, there never was a reason for that. The Narc is Stuck, they now HAVE No Choice but to Choose- Which Source are they going to Ease Up on, which are they Going to Double Down on with their Venom. Which One has Less to Offer that they can Risk that Source Exiting their Life? Pretty well Turns Out- Everybody Leaves the Narcissist!

Him as an Aggressor, psychopathic, liar was there wirh my children, with those who saw his violence on me...Unfortunately, he always gets the chance to gut my suffering at my expense and to have fun at my expense... Great and everyone believes him. Justice, doctors, police, my family... I have no more life, my health is ruined, I have no strength, I am drained and drained. My social environment turned away from me, manipulated and believing I was crazy...what shel I do? My creations to fight against him, such as free myself from him are totally gone...don't know how to help myself when there is no one there to help anyway, because everyone falls for their lies, as soon as they fell for them... here in Germany the victim has no chance. When his mask fell, he revealed that a monster was hiding behind it. If he could, he wouldn't even shy away from murder. He tried to strangle me, but also the children.

We moved, and signed a year lease together on a place when we arrived and she started having an affair in less than two months. She was also trying to make me leave and go to a new apartment. This person who I have children with, and thought would be a good mother, turned into her true very mean, vindictive self. Move the me and my children across the country, get me to do a lot of the work packing the house and driving the uhaul and unpacking, then she started a new relationship and essentially strand me here.
