When we had our monthly meetings everyone was supposed to say something about what was going on in their life but I refused to share any information about myself but just said why? So you can use it against me at some later date?

[@Samua3]

One time I suddenly found out an old friend had died. I came home and sat down in shock and cried. My husband came through and asked what was wrong. I told him. He said, "Oh well." and walked off into the kitchen whistling cheerily! It wasn't even a habit of his to whistle so it was totally deliberate to sadden me further, which it did. What he didn't realise was that it was another nail in the coffin and would one day help me rather than hurt me.

[@RS54321]

That is psychotic behaviour. I hope you are free from that relationship.

[@Samua3]

@@RS54321 Yes ...one day I stopped hoping and it was liberating! He did one of his explosions where I had once again needed to call the police. They said to me that time "you keep letting him come back so we will really have to stop treating your calls as a priority." That really helped me evaluate my situation. I couldn't keep doing it. He wasn't going to stop. It was going to be for the rest of my life if I let it, and be even more terrifying without the police helping me. The police had told him that without my agreement he couldn't come back. So I didn't agree ever again. My optimism had been hurting me and I put it in a better place. I used it for myself instead. He still phones sometimes, or visits without coming in the house. I am friendly but I told him he can't hurt me anymore because I have no hope left, and I have given up caring about being loved and loving someone. He said, "thanks a lot!" Haha ..he was offended because I told him he couldn't hurt me anymore! He actually can hurt me by making me sell the house but because I still talk to him if he phones etc he sees me as useful so isn't forcing me to sell. I paid the mortgage all along but the law would let him have at least some money and that would make me lose my home. He threatened it one day and I said if he made me sell I would move so far away he would never see me again! Since I am the only stable person he can talk to (his parents being the most nasty narcs ever!) he doesn't risk losing that listening ear. He's with someone else...on and off. I advise him on how to treat her, knowing he won't manage it for long. But there is no pain in me even for this, not even denial. I am free and my nerves are so much calmer.❤️

The Black eyes, this is a thing with Narcissists!! My ex husband looked at me this way when I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease and again when he signed divorce paperwork.

INVALIDATION is the name of the game. The LACK OF CARE is obvious in every single word, action, and expression.

[@LadyTiger787]

My mother was my narcissist growing up. She wasn't shy about how much she hated me. And then I married...another one! I won't go into details here about how many times I thought I was going to die with each of them, but I will say I divorced my husband and fled. Despite his threats to hunt me down and kill me I never heard from him again-I wasn't worth it to him, thankfully. But Mom. I stayed in my daughter relationship by first, never talking about any problem or decision I had to make with her. I always presented the conclusion so that I wouldn't get mixed up in doing what she wanted me to do instead of following my own reasoning. Second, I curbed her martyrdom by turning a blind eye to her "sick" voice, her criticism of me, her lack of caring and attempts to reign me in. I just pretended I didn't notice. These things helped a lot. But both of these individuals had a profound effect on me all my life. At age 72, I still have to tell myself, "you are good enough".

[@SpongeAddict-gw6mo]

[@pavementpounder7502]

One thing I notice, is they often dont seem happy to see you, or either seem unhappy/grumpy or emotionless when they see you, even if youre supposedly a friend. Like they often wont smile/greet you etc. They also more to remind you of their superior position. Not true of all narcs but true of the ones i know.

[@HappilyAnonymousGirl]

I’ve noticed this, too. They also will greet you in a way that sounds happy, but with no smile.

[@RS54321]

Yep! I came home from a trip one time, and my landlady never said 'welcome back' or 'how was your trip?' Just this dead expression coupled with her talking only about herself while she continued to mop her floor. She dominates every single conversation and doesn't really listen to others. She only asks me questions to gather info or to sound like a loving person, not to have any deeper connection with me (which is funny b/c when I moved in, she told me I was like family and that they're so happy to have me here--this is not at all how they've acted or how I feel.) She seemed mad that my friend had come to pick me up early one morning for surgery and came to their front door rather than my back door, making a passive-aggressive comment about it. When I said my friend was taking me to get surgery, she defensively replied, 'I didn't know you were getting surgery,' making it about her. I replied 'Yes, I told you about it last month.' She even said she'd write it down then so she could pray for me. She completely forgot (probably b/c it wasn't important to her) and then replied 'I didn't know' again. I've learned to share as little as possible and get my emotional needs met by my family, friends, and God.

In 14 years, NEVER, EVER smiled when he see me. During dating, he flowered me with gifts, trips, affection, sweet text, phone calls, etc. But as it got closer to the wedding, the real demon appeared.

[@pavementpounder7502]

@RS54321 that sounds about eight. Sorry you had to deal with that. I had a boss who was similar. Never seemed the least bit friendly, bad tempered, critical, unfair, always liked to emphasised her authority.

[@333whiteraven]

I was 18 years old, on my knees, sobbing, begging my mother to have some compassion and listen to what I had to say. I was in love, in college, and wanted to move in with my grandmother. I had never in the history of ever begged before, but I was desperately trying to find hope in our relationship; a relationship that was quickly dissolving as I reached adulthood and sought independence. That was the moment I realized she didn't love me... She looked at me with nothing behind her eyes, laughed like a villain, and said "crocodile tears." She seemed to enjoy seeing my shocked reaction. Her head tipped up in a prideful snear. There was pleasure on her face as I felt the worst pain of my life. Then she walked out of the house, slamming the door behind her. That was the day I decided to walk away and let go of the false idea I held that my mother was my friend. Something was terribly wrong with her and I refused to subject myself to her abuse. It's been 20 years since we last spoke, and it's not long enough.

Each time he did this, I called him out on it, and he would say I’m imagining things. I was frustrated and upset, but as the abuse escalated, I knew things were out of my control.

My demon father never has any authentic facial expression except anger. He's creepy as hell when he smiles. He makes it a point to smile from ear to ear. And he changes his resting narc face to a full smile in 0 seconds. Used to creep me out and just add to all the other creepiness. My mother send me pics today although I've asked her not to send me the demons pics. His face is just pure evil. My mother send me pics because my maternal uncle and his wife are visiting them. I remembered one childhood memory about when the same uncle and aunt were visiting. My uncle, aunt and cousins were sleeping in one room and my brother and me had to sleep in the parents room. The demon was lying on his bed and I was walking past. My little brother was lying beside him and said something to me. My demon father JUMPED out of his bed and slapped me so hard that my nose started bleeding. Before he slapped me, he repeated some words that my aunt had said earlier during the day. The demon was angry that my maternal uncle and his wife were having a nice time and vent it out on me. And just imagine. The demon was lying on his bed, thinking and sulking. Then he jumped out of bed and started violently hitting me and made my nose bleed. I still remember how my nose burned, my mother rushed to the room. I rushed to the bathroom. And I still remember how I took my pillow and blanket amd went QUITELY to sleep somewhere else. That was because I did not want my uncle and his family to know what was going on. I felt ashamed. Just imagine all the things going on here: 1. The demon becoming violent and make me bleed 2. My brother completely traumatized because he thought its probably his fault that he talked to me and made the demon jump out of his bed 3. My mother rushing to the room and as always just witnessing the demons demonic behaviour and NOT doing anything 4. Me rushing to safety and at the same time not wanting anyone to know what had happened out of shame 5. The demon showing his demonicness. The demon was thinking about something my aunt had said and repeated those words to me before hitting me so hard that my nose started bleeding. Just imagine this demonic behaviour. The demon just jumped out of bed, out of his thoughts and vented out his demonic frustration on me. Hell is real. These people will definitely go to hell and BURN there. And BTW, I have been sending my comments to my mother on whatsapp. There are usually very detailled memories. She just writes back "Lies. All lies". People can act all good and nice, they will definitely go to hell for harming little, innocent and defenseless children.

May you find peace through seeking God. Be so in your peace that you don’t want hell for those that harmed you. Be still in that peace that when that day comes you’ll not even want to witness God’s wrath upon those people…that day will come. I know because I too grew up being abused by my entire family to the point I believed the names they called me. I was beat into submission. I lost my voice until they treated my children the same way. My children gave me the strength to stand up and cut ties with my family. God gave me peace.

When I began working with adults with disabilities- mostly behavioral, I couldn't understand why some of them really set me off feeling very upset, creepied out and so on. One day one of them lay on the floor cackling loud and crazy. I suddenly was struck with the realization, my (now exhusband) would do this at times. There was an extrememly fine line between him and them. They had been court ordered into care. He would watch tv and movies studying the facial , body, vocal, etc attempting to put on their skin. In 35 years he NEVER cried. Our kids realized how off he was especially when he'd try and fain his love for them and rant, compete, demean over and over. This man sat in the courtroom under oath and lied again and again. When I confronted him from the witness stand he was stone cold and had his attorney file frivilous motions after the divorce determined to detroy me.

He told me to watch the jack if it moved to tell him while he tried to put on the spare tire. Once again, the jack fell off, but this time hit the top of my foot very hard. While I was crying in pain, he says that he doesn't have any sympathy for me, because I should have not been so close to the jack. I told him I was scared for him and that's why I was so close. My foot was bruised and painful. He never showed me any sympathy until my sister in law was empathetic to me and told me to elevate it and ice it. I guess he didn't want to appear uncaring to his sister. I could write a book about his narcissistic ways. I'm so happy I divorced that nightmare.

Then my twin flame died suddenly leaving a disabled adult son. He begged me to come live with him. Aft a year, dummy me went. Turns out it was a trap and he was NPD!! I had to beg a ride from Tn up here to Michigan to live at my best friends house. SSI chopped my benefit to where I can't live on my own! Now, five yrs in, my dearest friend died suddenly in my arms the morning of March 3. Now I am stuck living with the man she spoiled and did not know til 2 weeks before death that he is a Damon NPD! He has hurt me emotionally to unspeakable pain. Now my copd is killing me. I am recovering from hospitalization with pneumonia. This asshole has not spoken to me since I got home and turned the AC back on! He tries to control everything including my breathing. I am in the midst of arranging Dr visits and oxygen deliveries,. But I will get it together. Hoping to upgrade my disability and move out. But right now I just struggle to take my next breath. No family or friends or transportation. Screwed up right?

You lived according to your standard, not his. It might have been better to leave but you stayed and honored the vows you made. That is honorable in its own right.

I went twice, with two different therapists; each time during the first meeting, it became uncomfortable for her and she stopped the session and cancelled any further visits. She couldn't manipulate the therapists, so she bailed. I am so much more at peace now that I told her definitively, "No relationship building; just civil protocol if we happen to meet."

My mother died never knowing exactly what the problem was with my sister, so, although it took me so long, at least I am at peace now, having given up the false hope of any type of reciprocal relationship with her, thanks to the internet and all the great psychologists who have exposed these vampires of humans.

I blew up at her and what did she do? Smirked and did the silent treatment. Later, I went away for work for 3 months and I'd bought a pair of shoes which I HID under a pile of fabric before I left. They were new and still in the box. She offered to pick me up from the airport and when I got off the plane, she was *wearing* the shoes. She said, "oh look at these cool shoes I found." I told her, "yes, I hid them from you because I didn't even get a chance to wear them yet." I was clueless also to what others could see. A friend told me, "why do you hang out with her?

His mother died when he was 22. His father never showed the mother respect either. The more and more I listen to these traits I can’t even believe I didn’t know this is what he is. It’s a very sobering moment. 😢

A strangely shivering/trembling upper lip especially while they are sucking supply from the victim and/or a fluttering eye lid and/or a twitching corner of their mouth. These expessions I have come across a hunded times when dealing with a narcissist. They get so excited while sucking energy out of their victims that they can hardly control their facial expressions. My mother used to make a very weird looking sucking motion with her mouth whenever she was humiliating or beating me as a kid.

Thank you, I’m autistic and ADHD. Often mistaken for this. People truly need to do their homework on this subject. Too many labels being thrown around.

[@d.hamilton1282]

Yes. but people can see your heart or intentions by your actions or how you treat others. I roll my eyes a lot to be funny and get people to laugh.

[@SurnaturalM]

"Narcissist" is one of them. People who have trouble regulating their own emotions or who have BPD tend to label everyone who are close to them (mother, siblings, boyfriend, husband) as narcissistic, as people with BPD are extremely needy and have to be the center of the attention, they won't tolerate people who are closer to them to give attention to anything or anyone but them. Your boyfriend, husband, or mother aren't only there to praise you or telling you that what you do is fantastic and that they love you 200 times a day. NPD is a spectrum, and everyone is narcissistic to a certain degree, but very few have it to the point of being a disorder. BPD is far more common.

[@OligosFew]

This is true, I do the eye roll thing when I have been told the same thing 30x and they could quit talking and I'll finish the next 10 minutes of their monologue. I too am AU and I just recently discovered the blank face helps me when ppl are trying to control me. I put it on and they start explaining themselves in a panic. Usually when they should have never been saying those things in the first place. Puts them on their heels. It has set me free in ways I never imagined. It points out how ridiculous they are being. Then I ask what do you mean? And it gets even better. I hate that I have resorted to dishonest exchanges. It now occurs to me that folks have been dealing with me or handling me to get what they want for years and I have rushed in to meet expectations and needs that were never my responsibility.

You nailed it! That fake laugh and the 'not paying attention' irk me the most. It's sad that so many people don't see the narc for who they are, but I guess you have to go thru narc abuse to finally see it, and then run! I love your accent, btw!

[@jlinham]

My narc husband hangs his head when I state my opinion about something if it is contrary to his opinion. He will sometimes add a fake laugh, and often talks under his breath so I will ask him what he said.

[@lindamac3846]

I grew up the same as you Danish. My mother too was a narcissist, but I didn't know this until I was much older and was seeing a psychologist. On the very first visit she went through my history, and naturally, that included my mother. Toward the end of the session, she said, "You know what, it sounds like your mother was a narcissist." I sat there in shock. Suddenly, my whole life made sense. What I think is even sadder, I was adopted, and anything I did or said that she didn't like, she'd say: Well, I tried to raise you properly, but I guess you have too many of your mother's genes." My psychologist gave me an article describing the narcissist mothers, what they do, what they say and why they say it, but best of all, it explains how it affects daughters. I think there was 35 points, and my mother ticked about 28 of them. I showed it to my husband, and all he could say was: "That's child abuse." I guess that sums up narcissistic parents.

[@karinschumacher241]

Ad an adoptive mother, I know that there is nothing worse for your child than putting down her or his biological parents. How tragic! She should have been found out during the pre-adoption process and been rejected as an adoptive parent.

Your videos are scarily accurate my friend. You are so clued up on this topic! These last two videos I've watched are so spot on the mark they're uncanny. Mine does the pitiful victim smile and the snake eyes stare. The eyes only Jaws the shark would have before killing you. He is always the victim. Acrually starves himself and eats very little to create a campaign against me so he is seen as the weaker spouse. My mother who died last September also had the dead souless eyes at times. You're very correct in what you tell us..all of these things are true.

[@annemariesamples5582]

I was married to a narcissist for 25 years, and didn't know what a narcissist was! But I experienced all of these expressions. I learned what conversations were allowed and not allowed, and walked on egg shells until I finally had to leave.

[@kdrum90]

A pathological narcissist allows only conversations about them, all other topics are eyes-rolled or interrupted in the middle by walking away, or switching to smartphone or another activity that breaks the conversation. If your partner was milder than that then he might be less pathological.

[@j.s.korenic007]

Brother and his wife are masters of all those facial expressions. I dealt with it by walking away in every way from them. Ignore and don't engage is the way to achieve peace with yourself. You will never achieve peace from a narcissistic person. Hard lesson learned and I continue to apply what I've learned with everyone I meet. Once I decide to walk away, I'm done and there's no second chances for those kinds of people because they can't be reasonable so I'm not going to waste my life. I will focus on positive things and people who value me.

[@kefaylem]

Mine would literally shut his eyes when I would speak, simultaneously talking over me hurling insults. Nothing is ever resolved, your emotions and needs are “Excuses” I wouldn’t even get the hoover love bombing, he would love bomb himself in front of me whilst devaluing me, because I was lucky to have him and need him, according to him. I have to admit I adopted the eye roll. The constant word salad whilst preaching his so called superior word become so tedious I couldn’t hide my contempt for it. Every area of your life will suffer if you let them in.. Just RUN! They bring the absolute worse out in you because you are constantly in fight or flight at the constant disregard and insults. Hardest relationship of my life. He didn’t break me though.

I love that you included the side note about autism, looking AT you is probably out of obligation to be polite, so they may be focused on appropriate eye contact, body language, how to respond, but when looking away it can free up space to fully listen and process what you're saying.

I have experienced all 7 with both my sons and their father. Their father passed away at 49 and my oldest son is in prison. My youngest son lives with me due to health reasons. His narcissist tendencies are less than his father and brother but they come out frequently. "They hit without physically hitting" is so true. It hits my heart when he says narcissistic words to me. And truly I ask myself how much longer can I withstand this?
