Revealed : This Is What Narcissistic Husbands Always Do to Their Wives l NPD l Narcissistic
Narcissistic husbands often engage in specific behaviors that undermine their wives’ self-esteem, control the dynamics of the relationship, and maintain their own inflated self-image. Understanding these patterns can help recognize the signs of narcissistic abuse and empower those affected to seek support and take action. Here’s a detailed look at what narcissistic husbands typically do to their wives:
1. Constant Criticism
Narcissistic husbands frequently criticize their wives, targeting both their actions and character. This constant criticism serves to erode their wife’s self-esteem and self-worth, making her more dependent on the narcissist for validation and approval. The criticism is often subtle and insidious, disguised as “constructive feedback” or “concern.”
2. Emotional Manipulation
Narcissistic husbands use emotional manipulation to control their wives. They may employ tactics such as guilt-tripping, gaslighting, and playing the victim to shift blame and make their wives feel responsible for their unhappiness or problems. This manipulation creates confusion and undermines the wife’s sense of reality and self-confidence.
3. Isolation
To maintain control, narcissistic husbands often isolate their wives from family and friends. They may criticize or undermine relationships with loved ones, create conflicts, or discourage social interactions. This isolation makes the wife more reliant on the narcissist for support and validation, further entrenching the power dynamic.
4. Idealization and Devaluation
Narcissistic husbands may initially idealize their wives, showering them with attention and affection. However, this phase is often followed by devaluation, where the wife is suddenly criticized and dismissed. This cycle of idealization and devaluation keeps the wife off-balance and emotionally invested in regaining the initial admiration.
5. Control and Dominance
Narcissistic husbands seek to control various aspects of their wives’ lives, including finances, decision-making, and personal freedoms. They may exert control through subtle means, such as making unilateral decisions or dictating daily routines, ensuring that their wife feels subordinate and dependent.
6. Withholding Affection
Withholding affection is a common tactic used by narcissistic husbands to punish or manipulate their wives. By withdrawing love, attention, or physical intimacy, they create a sense of deprivation that compels the wife to seek approval and reassurance, reinforcing the power imbalance in the relationship.
7. Projection
Narcissistic husbands often project their own flaws and negative traits onto their wives. For instance, if they are dishonest or unfaithful, they might accuse their wife of being untrustworthy or deceitful. This projection serves to deflect attention from their own behavior and place undue blame on their wife.
8. Triangulation
Triangulation involves involving a third party to create conflict or insecurity in the relationship. Narcissistic husbands may compare their wives unfavorably to others, whether it’s ex-partners, colleagues, or even family members. This tactic is designed to undermine the wife’s self-esteem and increase her dependency on the narcissist.
9. Denial and Deflection
When confronted with their behavior, narcissistic husbands often deny any wrongdoing or deflect blame. They may insist that their wife is overreacting or imagining problems, thereby avoiding accountability and invalidating her feelings and experiences.
10. Excessive Self-Centeredness
Narcissistic husbands consistently prioritize their own needs and desires over those of their wives. Their self-centeredness manifests in a lack of empathy and consideration for their wife’s feelings, making her needs and aspirations secondary to their own.
Conclusion
Narcissistic husbands engage in a range of harmful behaviors designed to control, manipulate, and undermine their wives. From constant criticism and emotional manipulation to isolation and withholding affection, these tactics serve to maintain their inflated self-image and control the dynamics of the relationship. Recognizing these patterns is crucial for those affected to seek support, set boundaries, and take steps towards reclaiming their self-worth and well-being.

I left my soon to be ex husband due to DA and extreme control. My family and friends were so surprised when I finally opened up and told them everything because he was so charming and friendly to them. While I was in the hospital on life support, my family often helped with our newborn and at times, would keep her overnight. They did as much as they could to help ease the load on my husband and he showed so much gratitude but once we got home and I started to get better, he talked so lowly of my family, claiming that they didn’t do anything to help us and that his family shared more care than mine did. Y’all, my mom showed up EVERY DAY and I was in and out of the hospitals for almost a YEAR. My sister is a single mom who owns a business and she still made time to come and wash my hair and braid it for me. He got to the point that he just continued to talk bad about my family when they’ve never given him a reason to. But I’m convinced now that it’s because he wanted to create that isolation between us because he knew that if I were to ever run, that’s who I’d run to. It’s so sad, the way these individuals live.

It sounds like you’ve been through an incredibly difficult and painful experience. Narcissists often use tactics like undermining family and friends to isolate their partners and maintain control. It’s heartbreaking when someone manipulates and distorts the truth to create rifts, especially when the support system has been so generous and caring. Your awareness of these manipulative behaviors is crucial for understanding the dynamics at play and protecting yourself. It’s also important to acknowledge the strength it takes to recognize these patterns and make the decision to leave. Surrounding yourself with supportive and understanding people is essential for healing. Thank you for sharing your story, and I’m here if you need any support or resources.

@@NarcWave I genuinely appreciate your advice and concern! ♥️ Thank God, I was able to safely leave with my daughter and we’re now in a safe place. Now, I had done a lot of research on narcissism before I met my husband but he is so clever, charming and intelligent and had all of us fooled. Luckily, I recognized what was going on pretty quickly and fled as soon as I could. It was just so hard because we had just had our baby when it all started and I got sick just weeks after that. I was bedridden for almost a year and had so many doctors and nurses around constantly that he played it nice until I got better a few months ago and then it started getting extremely toxic and even dangerous. He would also involve our daughter in all of it. I saw where it was going and the look on her face during all of it just broke my heart. 😩 looking at her is what motivated me to flee. What’s utterly heartbreaking is he is withholding all support for myself and our daughter and will not financially support us until I decide to reconcile. It’s a sick game that these individuals play.
