When the narcissist has moved on, you need to grieve them and recognise that it was a false character that they used to manipulate you. Then you can use this opportunity to put the focus back on yourself and your own life. Use this time to heal and become stronger. So that you will be ready, just incase they come back. Narcissists hoover their victims 7 times on average, before it’s finally over.

In the devalue stage, he repeated the same disgusting behaviours (previously I did not know these things. At the time of devaluation he bragged about what he did to his first wife. Up until then, I thought that he had been the victim.) Then, after I divorced him, he sent pics of his new pursuit in the same park where he had taken me, despite living in a large city with about 100 parks. He had this script he kept repeating with endless number of women.

My breakup happened very quickly, but at the time, I didn’t even realize I was being discarded (hadn’t figured out the whole Narcissism-thing yet). There was so much “on again, off again” behavior going on that I didn’t know what was happening. I was very confused & crying a lot. Finally, a mutual friend told me that he was going to a bar and seeing other women. I was shocked at this behavior because I never thought he would try & pick up girls from a bar! But that NEED for SUPPLY is so great, & I guess he hadn’t yet groomed anyone new. Once I heard that, I lost a lot of respect for him due to the ease at which he seemed to be able to just “move on”. In hindsight, I don’t think we really had a real relationship. I was just a “fix” for his addiction to Supply. It hurt a lot at the time, but now I thank God he broke up with me!

It's hard to call my ex narcissistic because I still have deep feelings for him and I feel the need to defend and talk him up, even though there is no reason to. He moved on so quickly to a new supply and I found it heart-shattering, comparing myself to her in every way, wondering if she would go through the same cycle I went through, or if I was the only person he'd ever abused. It has helped to hear that this cycle will occur and yes, while she might be in that love bombing initial cycle, I went through it as well and know very well how real and alluring it feels. I've had a habit of looking at social media but I think I'm going to use all my skills to cancel on that because I know it's harming my healing. I need to work on my life and healing now.

The harshest and most unfair thing that we survivors have to learn to cope with is not the narcissist moving on, but that we have been misled, lied to and outright scammed and manipulated to believe that a person existed when in fact it was just a masquerade, a charade, a character, a play. And we were played for fools. Specially as we're going through Scorpio ♏ season, the harshest lesson indeed is letting go and moving on in order to heal.

I used to think he kept in touch because he loved me, but it wasn’t about love. The concept of “supply” just confounds me, but it provides the best explanation for what must be going on in his head.

You described an addictive need, an uncontrollable craving. That's all we are to them. Much like a person with a food addiction hides 'forbidden things' like sweets. Or an alcoholic who hides small bottles in the back of closets or behind storage bins in the garage. Those hidden and forbidden symbols of addiction aren't self-renewable; when they're gone, they're gone and must be replaced. Victims of narcissists are similar in some respects to the hidden and forbidden symbols of addiction and shame narcissists hide; we aren't inanimate objects however. We can choose not to be hidden and used when reached for to feed an addictive craving, only to be re-hidden after they get their fix. You're doing the right thing by taking yourself off their menu and denying them a quick addiction fix. 👍

I tried to tell my ex best friend/roommate that her new bf is a narc… he was fresh out of a divorce playing the victim and she gave him a key to our place not even 6 months of them knowing each other. I found out he started bringing women home during the day and sleeping with them in her bed because I literally caught him in the act. When I tried to tell her she got mad at me and let him get in face and scream at me….THEN since I was single at the time she ignored me and pulled the “you’re just jealous” card…. I was heartbroken….10+ years of friendship with this girl in the trash over a guy she knew for a short time…. He also wound up dumping her later on. She had to learn and I wasn’t going to be around for her. I actually saw her not that long ago and I could tell she wanted to talk to me but I have nothing to say to her.

I found out about my replacement the last time the narc tried to Hoover me, last summer. He was drunk and I think for a minute he forgot he was talking to me and thought he was talking to her (we were on the phone). It was yet another peak behind the curtain-their supply is definitely interchangeable. He began the Hoover process by telling me everything I wanted to hear-that he was so wrong and that he wanted to buy me a home so we could live together…he meant none of it. After all we’d been through for years…it was nothing to him.

Being with my ex narc for the past 8 yrs. made me observe this very pattern. I think they wanted to feel very important in a way that is disturbing. Instead of building trust with their intimate partners, they destroy the trust that they built with you (in that case lying when they tried to put you in their pedestal). Once they have a committed partner, they can’t stand being loved authentically by one person. Instead they go on and prey on other women that is susceptible to their love bombing. My ex narc was a compulsive pursuer in a relationship. He would go back and forth to the women he were involved before or try to meet women in complicated situation so that going public isn’t an option while having you as their main supply. In the end they destroy the very person that loved them. They are like toddlers testing your love for them. Showing and telling them you love them isn’t enough, they will cheat on your face to make you feel inadequate even if you are more than they deserve. They want to test your love for them so they keep hurting you and when you have enough of their abuse, you leave. Then they tell you, ‘you never loved me because you abandon me’. Well in fact it’s their actions and narcissistic behavior that made you leave or in other cases they discard you and will give silly reasons of the discard. Mine would use, ‘she’s crazy’, ‘she’s a nega-star’, ‘she insults me’, ‘she cheated on me’ et al. So with this pattern of infidelities and emotional abuse (who knows what else) it’s better to walk away. I did walk away and is now rebuilding my life with our daughter. We are struggling financially because I’m not earning enough to provide for my daughter but now we get to laugh and bring with us sunshine every day. No lies, no abuse and no fake love. We only live once, forgive yourself and move forward but never forget the lesson that narc abuse taught you. That is to respect yourself to walk away from what’s hurting and destroying you. That you deserve a life of solitude, happiness and love. Hugs*** :) Additionally I got to know about my narc husband bad ways when I reach out to a private detective digitalinvestigate@gmail.com for help he did a perfect work for me I can see everything he’s doing on his device.

That's exactly how I found out I wasn't working for 3 months n I felt something was off about her. Then she called me a narcissist . Like wow what the heck is that. I researched it and boom. Wow explained so much. Even my last relationship was a narcissist

I’m envious of my parents generation because after a breakup they simply didn’t know what their ex did after anymore (unless they had friends or lived in a small town). So I believe blocking is the way to give ourselves that gift and forget these people again 😂 your mind does eventually forget them this way.

Thank you DR Ramani. You are amazing. I hope you don't mind if I share this on my channel. This is me. In my 20's, I left a relationship, and it was so much easier to heal. This was back in the late 80's early 90's. This one, ended last year, after 12 years. I am still struggling and Social Media does not help. It is taking me so much longer to heal. Seeing him having moved on with the lovey dovey profile pic, was devastating. For all of the reasons you mention in this video. I am in therapy and now studying Psychology, to hopefully work with traumatised women. Blessed Be to you ❤🙏

The narcs in my life have moved on, but I know that they’ve left a landscape full of wreckage along their path. I’m not feeling anyway, b/c they’re no spring chickens and they have problems with everyone. It’s going to get to the point that their reputation precedes them and their old age is going to be their punishment.

It's true with the bag of tricks, actually I found him really ridiculous watching him use the same tricks on the next woman when it didn't work on me. "Thankfully" I met this disturbing kind of personality before, so I'm immune and can sense love bombing right away, so this time it didn't effect me as much as the first time. Thank you so much Dr. Ramami for all the videos. I learn something every time ❤😊

I was my mothers supply until i was in my early 30's. Now she is really going through a tough time and i heard she has lost weight and is anxious now i'm gone, her partner left too so she has lost all that held her together. My young son goes down to say hello twice a month. I don't want to go back, but i feel sorry for her. My logic and compassion is in conflict. I have other siblings that now have to step up and they despise me for it. I am a human being with my own issues and family, i cannot save her. I'm lonely and sad but i cannot burden others, so i stay away and seem cold but i need to survive for my son Edit: My mum beat me and exploited me up until my early 20"s and hated me with men, She beat me before dates, so i had to cancel. She destroyed me so i could not turn up, she beat me verbally, mentally, physically and emotionally. DON"T EVER LET ANYONE TREAT YOU LIKE THAT!

Thank you for this video. Very reassuring. The divorce from my wife of 20 years was final a year ago. I don't know if she really is a narcissist, but she sure has the majority of the characteristics you have described in this and other videos. I have been in fairly frequent contact with the ex because she has insinuated herself into the lives of and co-opted my 2 adult children and 3 young grandchildren. Last week she contacted me saying "I just wanted you to hear it from me, but the guy I have been dating for 2 months and I are now in a serious relationship." This is the first guy she went out with since our divorce. When I meet the ex 24 years ago, I was a widower. The new guy is a widower. I would bet that you are 100% correct that she is love bombing him, as she did me, she will discard him as she did me. Looking back, I am so grateful to her for ending it with me because I was miserable with her for many years of shaming, criticism, judgemental, witholding affection etc. Your videos are so helpful in letting me know that rumination is not unusual and for acknowledging to myself what I had been living with for way too long.

Some people are just too stupid to realize that in this world we all get back what we give out. Long ago, I went into therapy for awhile and complained to my counselor about how my ex callously disregarded me....then discarded me...which left me broken, reeling, moody and semi -functioning for what seemed like forever. After I told her of all that had happened, and all I was senselessly put through, she responded with words that resonated for years to come. She said: "Eventually, everyone's luck runs out" . And for my ex---it most certainly did....taking a full seven years for karma to do its thing. I like to think my mom in heaven maybe had a little something to do with the payback he got---if she in the afterlife was somehow aware of how badly he treated me at times for no discernible reason.

Dear Dr. Ramani 🙏😊 Growing up in a narcissistic system (family) was very difficult for me. Even today I still don't understand certain human basics. When I talk to other people about this topic, it doesn't bring any further insights. For example, I don't understand what needs or boundaries are. How are these made up? What can influence them? What are personal, what are social or cultural needs? Certain basics were never explained to me. And when I ask someone to explain this the only answer I get is: "If you don't know, who will know?" Could you perhaps imagine making a video about it? ❤

Together off and on for 25 years. I left the country for three months. He met someone else, and a year later he'd married her - his mother's buttoned-up choice - and had a child, then another. Another twenty years later, he still calls and wants to talk. Right. I thought it was Love. The 'cracks' were wide enough to fall through. I'm still sickened by my naivete.

This video has been so helpful to me on my healing journey. My ex narc moved on 3 weeks after she left me, and got instantly pregnant with this new guy. I didn't know untill the end, but for years she cheated on me whenenever we fought with anyone she could, especially those close to me. She blamed me for it all, saying we werent together, but never stopped coming back, and always promised me/made me promise that we'd only been with eachother for all 7 years. She even came back to emotionally string me along when she was with this guy. At a time she was upset with him during their move in together (4 months into dating), only to dismiss me again completely days after when he found out we'd been talking and she told me where they lived. She denied any of what she said, claimed I put words in her mouth and reassured me she's happier than ever with him and twisted our entire past to make me a villian. Anytime I start feeling pain or doubt when she enters my mind, I just take the 15 minutes to breathe and watch this video, and I feel immensely better. Thank you so much Dr. Ramani for this.

The narcissist and the new supply, don't get bothered with it. Just remember how that person treated you. Also, it's just a matter of time until the new supply catches on and be exposed to the narcissistic game. So, just sit back, lay back and watch the narcissist destroy itself, again its just a matter of time.

I left the passive aggressive covert narcissist ex husband after 14 years of insane marriage. He moved someone else in after 3 weeks. I had no clue there was someone waiting in the wings. Honestly I didn't mind at all. The relationship didn't last a year. No clue if there was anyone else. Don't care at all. Recovery healing and growth means that he does not affect me at all

Of the many, many things I have learned from you, Dr. Ramani, a big one is that you cannot prevent a new person from being used and abused by a narcissist. I have since stopped trying to do that. I’ve also received the feedback that I am too dark or negative about narcissistic tendencies. Thank you for all you have taught me through your videos. Your dedication to education about all things narcissism has pulled me from some dark and ugly places. God bless you!! ❤

My first narcissist relationship happened many years ago. She cycled quickly through several more guys while she played the same game. She's been married for many years. I don't know her husband. But I've seen serious hints that she has caused him terrible damage. I pray for him every day. And due to my own issues I had several more relationships with other narcissists. This has all been a life ruining and painful situation. I'm old now. And only now am I beginning to understand. I saw many red flags. But they didn't make sense. So now put what we learned into looking at the attacks and inhuman terrorism in the mid east. This is a cancer of the soul that affects more than male female relationships.

After more than 14 years of that first "love" with a narcissist the suffering is still on. CPTSD, and inmune disease and so many other things are gifts from that first relationship. I'm 34 and I think I'm not going to have a human relationship ever again. It doesn't get better but worse.

This video couldn't come at a better time. I grey rocked my best friend of over 20 years about a year ago after we had a little disagreement where I didn't side with her view and she called me a traitor but refused to discuss it further. No apology, no accountability then comes back to me like nothing happened that caused me to go back and reflect on our relationship history and true enough there were many instances of abuse that I brushed aside because I thought that was friendship, you give and turn a blind eye. Recently, I saw her at the wake of a common friend's mom. My feeling upon seeing her was "flight", I was not ready to speak to her face to face, or even know how to be civil and pretend like nothing has come between us. I went home and for the next few days I fell into a tailspin of rumination and self blaming, just like what you said in this video. I had to go talk to my friends who were my support when the relationship broke down to ask if I was the "bad" person or I was not a friend enough to ruin this 20 yr friendship. My husband sat by my side and help me re-count all the nasty things she did that merited this breakup. You are right this is a heartbreak that demands self care, self love and time. Thank you, Dr Ramani, for reminding us to be kind to ourselves. Thank you for standing alongside us as we slowly get up and stand tall with our chins held high.
