[@Loku242]

I have a big question for you. Are narcissists simply mentally handicapped in a similar way a sufferer of ASPD lacks functionality in the part of the brain responsible for empathy, or are narcissists outright villains by nature beyond help and best avoided when found? I ask this because I hear everywhere about those abused by narcs, support going out to their victims as it should, but I hear nothing about narcissists being urged to seek help, let alone redeem themselves, I.E the agreed upon stance I've seen so far is narcissists are inherently villains and monsters and are lost causes due to lacking the will to be capable of being anything less. Thats why I ask? Are they lost souls that can be rehabilitated and redeemed, or are they monsters to the core?

[@lifeafterdeath48]

They also have crazy fetishes. Mine had a fetish of drinking pee. It will get him aroused, but he will not be sexual. He was a compulsive liar. I found out he would go on websites looking for women to pee on in, in his mouth and in his car. He would also ride around looking for places where pee spots are. He blamed me for a lot of things, but he will never take responsibility of his actions and will never apologize for his wrong. He was crazier than I thought.

[@MichaelAlbrecht-d7z]

[@MichaelAlbrecht-d7z]

This is very true

[@patrickrourke3836]

My wife is beautiful and sexy with mad chef skills... so yes, color me addicted. Unfortunately, she does not know how to love or participate in a romance where both partners attempt to put each other first. It doesn't matter that I've taken her all over the world and bought her whatever she wants, she thinks her insecurities are best addressed through controlling behavior, false accusations of infidelity (while she openly flirts infront of me and denies it) domestic violence (she is a violent alchoholic), and demeaning, belittling comments which include body shaming me by comparing me to how her ex's were endowed🫏, and telling me that her ex's who repeatedly cheated on her and only came back to her to use her body were better than me - they're better men than me. She does however have no complaints about the number of orgasms in her life, but she writes that off as me just using her for sex and her cooking. I wouldn't use the word "using", but yes, no complaints there. Her mistake in picking me as a source is that I know who I am. I am a Christian, non- toxic, Alpha Male Warrior, 21 year combat vet, father of 5 combat Vets including my daughter. I've never had any complaints about Sexual performance (just the opposite) and already have been through the attempted character assassination, financial and life destruction event that is the mother of my children after she cheated on me while I was deployed for the umpteenth time (for a year at a time) in combat. Why are you still with your current wife you might ask? Because I am, too the best of my abilities, a Christian in Word and deed. I believe in the sanctity of marraige, that it should not be entered into or left in haste and that what God has brought together let no man put asunder. There are things I love about her that I want in my life, things about her I do not want to lose. She is the best daughter, sister, mother, and grandmother I know. I can't imagine being in a knife fight with anyone else at my back, she is the walking breathing epitome of having a tiger by the tail - in every way imaginable. When things are good, they're great - we love, laugh, enjoy each other's grandbabies, and are polically and spiritually in synch. But when things are bad, I feel like I need a professional exorcist. I literally feel like I'm dancing with the devil, and when I look into those demonic eyes, I know why she never had to spank any of her 4 kids. And those 4 kids and their kids are as awesome as mine, and I love them like I love my own... but she has now poisoned them to me. She keeps taking things away, the cooking, the sex, the family, all while trying to make me feel guilty for wanting to spend time with my family. When it comes to being a wife and life partner engaged in a romance for the ages... let's just say being increasingly verbally and physically abused, having false allegations of DV resulting in two trips to jail that threaten my security clearance (I still advise the military) has never on my list of "must haves" in a relationship...and at this point, I'm pretty sure I know what an eternity in hell is going to be like and I do not want to go there - or go back to jail, that was just disgusting. Altho I do believe I have a future in prison ministry and have grown exponentially in the Godly traits of forgiveness, mercy, patience and long-suffering... Silver linings... I may be the only "type" of man who can help her... but now, after watching these videos (mind blowing) and knowing exactly what I'm up against for the first time (thank you) and reading the comments here where everyone is saying don't just run, but run fast and don't look back, I'm like WTF? Now that I'm familiar with both the disorder and the childhood trauma that likely caused it (sexually abused by family member, date raped at 14, pregnancy, abortion... what kind of real man leaves when the going gets tough? All I know for a fact, is that everything here in this life is temporary, everything in the next is eternal, and we are admonished by the Creator of the universe to lay our treasure up for the next life (heaven) where moth and rust do not destroy. I have newfound respect for what you and your profession do to help those dealing with this and other disorders... I love her...help?

I hear you. Same here. I even lost custody and believed I would not recover from the more than a decade long nightmare. Another decade later and w/only one kid still being a minor ( I win 50/50 parenting time back certainly) I have outgrown my own expectations of what fundamental recalibration can look and feel like. However the children will have to deal a life time with this. I am here living a content peaceful life in which I have been able to change paradigms. Kids and I are closer than ever, nothing can change that. At one time they might learn it for themselves. I am no longer a participant of my own enabling and enmeshment and have really solid helpful strong boundaries established. I feel better and no longer suffer. It is a long road but you all CAN heal. ❤

Yes, like Kathy Lee Gifford THREW A PARTY when her husband died! He'd had an affair with a flight attendant, 20 years earlier, and she NEVER forgave him. ("THEY" never do!) She figured if she left him, some other woman would marry him, and get all he had in the end. So she stayed with him and ALWAYS said the most insulting things about him, publicly. She took an apartment in town...NYC...to stay away from him as much as possible, and even had the nerve to ask for her segment on the Today Show moved to California...so she "could be close to where my son goes to college"...not caring if the entire CREW would have to move there too, or fly home to NYC every weekend, to be with their families! (You can bet her son WAS in California to get as far away from her as possible!) Her husband "dropped dead" and in 24 hours he had been cremated...no doctor exam...no autopsy...JUST DONE AWAY WITH! Then, the witch THROWS A PARTY!...to "celebrate life"...yeah...HERS! It was because her husband WAS Frank Gifford, that she even married him in the first place, and WHY she even became known! But..."THEY"...never forgive...and "THEY" WILL GET WHAT IS THEIRS! On one Today Show, they had cleaned up all the offices of the people who worked there. But Kathy Lee's office needed no clean-up. When Kathy and Hoda were talking about how neat all the offices were made...Hoda made the comment to Kathy, about how clean her office was, saying..."YOU ALWAYS GET RID OF THE THINGS YOU DON'T WANT!"...and there was this, very evil look, Kathy looked at Hoda with. She KNEW exactly WHAT Hoda was referring to...how quickly Frank had been DONE AWAY WITH! Hoda said she called Kathy when she heard about Frank, and Kathy told her not to come see her. But she did anyway. Hoda was bawling her head off, while that cold fish Kathy had nary a tear. Then a few days later...SHE THROWS PARTY! WHO DOES THAT?? ONLY A NARC! The way it all went down, Hoda KNEW what happened to Frank. I wonder how much the doctors, the coroner and the cops got. This isn't the first time this type of thing happens with the "jet set"...$$$$ can buy your freedom! But everyone is innocent until proven guilty, so this is just one person's opinion...and everyone has one, and everyone IS entitled to that.

It’s a tragedy to be born to a narcissist. The biological female I used to call my mother has tormented me all my life. I used to have hope that things would get better until I started learning about malignant narcissism. The crowning achievement of this despicable woman is to recently announce to my older brother and me that she is cutting us out of her will, and leaving her two million dollar property to her youngest (demonic) child. Yet she thinks my brother and I shouldn’t feel anything at all about her decision; that we should be genuinely happy about it. She harasses me with texts saying, “Let’s spend time together in innocence and love,” and other such drivel that makes no sense. I’m pretty sure I will have to block her number, because like all narcissists, she wants to harm me and yet still be in contact with me. Maybe she wants to check I’m still in pain, so she can feed off it some more. Narcissists are vile and violent.

He went to a local hook up site and when I confronted him he said it was a pop up and he didn't know what it was so he clicked on it. After the first time, you know good and well what the pop ups are so why keep clicking on them, right? I took the phone away from him and suspended the line and told him I wasn't paying for his online entertainment anymore and that was the first time he ever told me, "I hate your fucking guts!"

It's true that they feed on emotions, I noticed that my narcissistic mother loved to watch TV programs showing people suffering, at that time I didn't understand where it came from, but I knew there was something wrong with her, it disgusted me.

@@skibunny2257 You are correct. They can never change, nor really feel they need to change. It says in the Bible..."Can a leopard change its spots?" Jer 13:23 They simply have no empathy. They KNOW how one is supposed to act in any given situation...they are great actors...but they simply do not have the true feelings that belong to any given situation. One man wrote that he is a narcissist and he's proud to be one! He said why should he have to have all those "messy emotions to deal with" when he can come and go as he pleases. If he hurts anyone, well, that's their problem to deal with, thank you! Narcissist say they do not "feel" the emotions other people display, so they act as if they do...do what they know is expected, all the while being an empty shell with no responsibilities for the damage they create. Being "nice" to them is a joke to them and adds up to them having control over someone. They do not have any guilt feelings because they do not have any normal human feelings. Actually, I believe they are possessed by a demon and THAT is WHY they cannot be "cured". As an example of demon possession of narcissists, I was the assistant manager at our court house. I had over 150 regular customers, people who were employed at the courthouse. I treated every one of my customers like gold. But I had one customer, a legal secretary, who had this very snotty attitude toward me. I simply ignored it and always treated her with the same courtesy as all my other customers. One morning she came to the snack bar with an even more sour expression on her face than usual. I asked her if she was okay and she told me she had a headache she couldn't get rid of. I told her I did reflexology and I could get rid of her headache for her. (I always had customers asking me to do some reflexology for a headache or other symptom.) I came around the counter, took her right hand in my hand and lightly held it, as I explained how reflexology could get rid of her headache, by pressing on a particular spot on her hand, which would send an electrical impulse to her headache to get rid of it, something like acupressure, except without needles! As I lightly held her hand, and had not yet done the reflex, I glanced over at her and noticed her eyelids were fluttering very fast. I asked her if she was okay, and she said, "I feel strange."...and with that, she shot over two feet off the floor...straight up in the air, something humanly impossible!...and slammed down hard on her back on the tile floor! She immediately went into horrible convulsions, slamming the back her head over and over on the floor, while her arms and legs were jerking insanely! Her eyes had rolled back in her head too, and I inwardly was freaking out! About 7 or 8 other customers rushed over to help hold her down and it was like trying to hold a tiger! This went on for several minutes, when she suddenly stopped moving, and looked up at us, with an expression as if to say, "What am I doing on the floor?" We all helped her up and put her in a chair. She was very flushed so I ran to get a cold towel to put on the back of her neck. We told her she had just had a convulsion, and she should see her doctor very soon, to which she replied, "I've NEVER had a convulsion in my life!" And she got up and stomped out of the snack bar! The next morning, she came back to the snack bar... wearing something I'd NEVER seen...a SMILE! I asked her how she felt and she said she never felt better! I asked if she had any bumps on her head and she said there were none! And from that day forward, that lady became one of my nicest, warmest, most friendly customers I had, for the next year I worked there! This lady had been possessed by a demon! When demons come out, they throw the person around, sometimes they vomit (I had one of those before!) and it seems they are doing terrible harm to their victim! But the formerly possessed person never has any adverse effects and is, from then on, a new and healed individual! So, this is WHY narcissists cannot be "healed"...they must have their devil cast out...period! If you have a narcissist in your life, understand that you are dealing with an EVIL SPIRIT and unless it's CAST OUT...they will...can never...change! The demon lives in their victim, enjoying itself, hurting everyone around them, and using that person's body to do what they love to do...hurt, destroy and cause as much pain as possible, whenever possible, be it overtly, or covertly! For Big TRUTH! kristi

You got the projection part almost perfectly : ) You left it there clear for everyone to see. Not many recognize this, but I guess because it takes an extremely disagreeable empath, to read this and understand it clearly for what it is. What is actually happening in those situations is just them telling you how they're truly feeling about themselves, that's their subconscious exposing them to everyone, ironically, except to them. Their projection is just an extreme form of their lack of accountability. Especially when their accusation sounds like nonsense. When they throw some accusation that no human with a functioning brain can see that these can not apply to you. Even the practically impossible, they will sound so silly saying them. Sometimes they'd even say that the same thing that you are accusing them of doing (projection) was in fact is committed by you : ) It takes you back to your toddler years and having silly arguments early in school with other children. They will exhaust you one way or another, even sounding like a complete lunatic is fine as long as they don't admit to a mistake. We have an Arabic maxim that describes this devious strategy perfectly. ضربني وبكى سبقني واشتكى They hit me and cried, and ran claiming I hit them. No one performs this strategy as maliciously as they do, and to be honest, no one does it as well as them. They can fool the majority of people because they do it so well, and they're bullies too, so people try to avoid any problems with them and either consciously or unconsciously side with them to avoid their wrath. That's what flying monkeys do.

Once she was close to being found out about her financial sabotage to our lives she faked a suicide attempt to get sympathy and try and hold on to the relationship. It backfired. I made sure that her family was going to get her the help she needed and I went zero contact and relocated across the country to make a fresh start. I am much happier now and mentally healthy again and not subject to daily abuse. I am not in a hurry at all to date and I am working on being a better person and making goals for myself again.

My ex was a friend of 25 years, met in our early teens. When we "romantically" reconnected in our late thirties, I never anticipated what he was going to put me through. He'd come in as a "hero" and good friend when my dad passed away. Over the next few years.. I watched a grown man throw tantrums, tell obvious lies and grandiose stories, mirrored me, future faked, manipulated, gaslit and lied to my face. I was deeply trauma-bonded and knew his childhood trauma and went back for a number of cycles. He was exposed in May '21 juggling me with a woman he'd told me was just a friend and he'd never date because she was 12 years younger with two kids. Talked a lot of trash about her. When I found out he'd been juggling, I cut ties. Over the next year, he reached out a few times but I didn't bite. I reached out on his birthday in May '22 and found out he had a then four month old son with her. Unplanned, he knew her for three months. (I found out much later there was a third woman he'd told me he'd split with almost a year before). She took her son and her kids and moved out of state. He told me everything he'd been through made him see how he hadn't valued me like he should have, started dropping the "love" word and said he wanted a family with me. I saw what a trap that was. A month after saying this to me, he cut me off completely when I asked him to stop doing something that was confusing me (sending deep love songs and then saying it wasn't how he felt, it was just a "pretty song". This man listens to heavy metal). He told me he didn't need another headache from a woman and.. that was it. That was over a year ago, never another word. He knows I have abandonment issues and he'd ghost to punish me. I thank God, spirit, the All that he discarded me like yesterday's garbage. No more confusion, no more energy vampirism (I won't even get started on that, I was very spiritually sick), and no more time or energy wasted feeding a bottomless pit.

She actually said the whole "You need to make me feel X" thing - you know, that thing that the psychologists repeatedly say is an unhealthy attitude. No lady, I can be kind and helpful, but I can't make you feel anything in particular on demand - that bit is your arena.

I saw through her after 3 month when she did her first discard attempt (attempt because i immediatelly showed her iam willing to walk and she came back crying within days) After taking her back, i approached the relationship in "getting out of it what is good" which was the good sex. So i defended myself harder, kept an emotional distance. Worked out another 4 month, but the good times were less and less, the devalue attempts and fights got worse. I could clearly see a trend in the wrong direction. Despite objectivly knowing all this, it was insanely hard to break the traumabond after just 7 month. The only way to keep NC in the first days was trust in myself that in 1 week i will feel different. And it turned out to be like that but it was hard. After 10 days NC i see a clearer picture. The sex was basicly the only good time between us, therefore it felt special. Props to those people who break free after years. My gut started to hurt after just 7 month. No clue how ppl stay years with such people. I deliberately took her back. To learn. In hindsight quite risky, but iam grateful. I saw narc traits in realtime, learned to enforce and defend my boundaries. I learned the flaws of beeing too empathic and so much more.

It's "months" if there's more than one month.

[@Showdownxlm]

​@@tonyespinoza4738 Went back one more time. But didnt commit fully. Only took her 4 days to show me her true face again. Actually i never regreted taking her back alltogether 3 times. Everytime i got more objective about the situation, with less emotions involved and it felt like iam stepping out step by step which felt easier for me personally. But it might not be the recipe for everybody. Found out mine is also rather BPD than narcissist. So essentially a little less evil intentions, but compareable in their behaviour. Afterall you have to judge/treat them by their actions, not their words. They will twist reality in ways beyons imagination if they want to. For me personally i simple assest that their behaviour is too toxic for me to plan long term. But the ending is never easy.. i know

[@joetejada1184]

I did the same thing. I was raised to never cater to woman and at a young age have always been very good with woman. I saw the red flags with my ex but I knew emotionally I was way stronger than her evil games so I took her back after I walked away for 2 months. During that time I had a so much fun going out meeting people and after 2 months she came back begging with a inferior motive to "try" to destroy me. I took it personal so before I left her again and for good this time I messed her up mentally, physically and emotionally. I had dated narcissistic woman mostly my whole life before I even knew what that was but luckily I'm one of the very few that can date a narcissist and come out with no damage. I think I'm a bigger narc so when a narcissist comes Into my life thinking I'm the next victim their the ones that leave devastated 😂

[@lashawndagreen452]

Extremely nuts, and lots of projection. You said everything that I go through with my husband. 😢 Omg.

[@alcudiababe1]

I was never the type of person who thought my revenge was from walking away. I'd have loved to have done a lot of things to him. One thought I did have was sticking his photo around saying that he was wanted for murder - I didn't, I settled for hacking into his account and then finding out where he targeted his woman and he was a member of every chat site possible. I remember looking at a message saying "hello, your fit, can I have your number?" I think that just told me a lot and I ended up leaving it - it just opened my eyes to the sort of person he was and I didn't want to be around him - and, I may add, battling a trauma bond out

[@timothygrisack486]

The abuse quickly ramped up during discard! The anger that spewed from her could have won an academy award!!! It was like watching a scene from the shining!

[@danp1471]

Same here. Despite me just doing her a massive favor she found a way to pick a fight & I finally saw the narc rage others told me about. It was like she finally felt she could say all the despicable things she thought of me. Honestly it felt like she rehearsed it because it was cutting so deep touching on any & everything I shared with her over the course of the entire relationship. The next day she was shocked I unfriended her. Like wtf. She blocked me on facebook a week ago yet is still reaching out through text. Doing that bullshit where they just text "Hi" wanting to act as if we didn't just have a massive falling out where her true colors were shown.

Thx, Christina! So helpful once again. Two weeks post breakup and I’m doing better every day! Yes, very reactive and I’d say emotionally unregulated master projectors and false blame and shame projection. Wow wow my eyes are wide open thx to you.

[@edithaliciariveraalicea6588]

I’m constantly being criticized for everything I do. I’m constantly telling him projection and he’s living in my house for years and I am having a hard time getting him out. This video is right on point. He’s working on himself yet he’s still doing all these things.

[@mightymouse1005]

I'm in the same situation. I pay for everything, he has TWO bedrooms and has cluttered up my entire property and house. I feed all the animals and I do NOT have money. If he makes me a sandwich, he acts like a hero....he doesn't have a job, a vehicle or anything yet tries to make me feel like a failure. He's never finished anything

[@chaoswitch1974]

I have this issue, too. I can't get him to leave and I've been asking for years. I'm going to have to sell my property and leave.

[@edithaliciariveraalicea6588]

@@chaoswitch1974 I’m debating doing the same; however- my grandson is living with me and at this point - I need to just put on my big girl panties on and complete the notice to quit form and pay for a marshall to serve him or take the offer of my friend and do a voluntary surrender of the property- then take a position with her to mange her property while renting one of those apartments. Need to make a decision soon though- it’s not going to be a good time to do anything anyway.

[@ganymeade5151]

True narcissists never change and string others along because they need sources. Narcissists have no self awareness, sense of responsibility, or empathy. Narcissists are difficult to leave or divorce. Narcissists blame their partners or spouses; and say terrible things about them as punishment for daring to leave them. If you feel there are more bad times than good times, it might be time to leave, if possible. Otherwise, you are going to have to play along and survive as best as you can. You are going to have to get very tough and refuse to let your narcissist hurt you. However, in the process, you could become like a narcissist or a narcissist, as you will have to detach from your feelings and emotions. In the process, you could lose empathy for others. That is one cost of narcissistic abuse.

[@rosewagner4018]

This is one of the best explaining a narcissist video that I have seen. Thank you, I appreciate this so much. I am currently divorcing my husband. No, he never thought I would do it because he thought he had control over me. I am praying for peace when this is done.

[@stacyrosa6672]

I am learning to take that step back, when he rages, and use it as a clue to figure out what HE DID, that he's ashamed of. It's been very eye opening.

[@NatalieG427]

According to H G Tudor, a man who is a diagnosed Narcissist w/ sociopathic tendencies, so he is aware, says oddly enough narcissists actually thrive off of the Negative feedback from their victims better than the positive ones they may receive. His videos are also most educational and enlightening.😉

Lady Colin Campbell had a narcissistic mother, her therapist suggested she write a book to help others with this problem. Her book is called, “ Daughter of Narcissus “. eBay has it & Biblio also has it. On her channel she also has some videos on how to deal with family members who are narcissistic.❤

I had developed an irregular heart beat for no apparent reason, (after decades of trying to help a younger sibling get through life.). I had all the follow up heart testing at the same time realizing that I was dealing with a narcissist. After all the tests came back normal and going no contact with the sibling, I had blessed peace in my life, and all my heart is back in a normal rhythm again. Bingo!
