My heart used to break for my narc ex-husband because he can't help how damaged he is. But it's hard to feel sorry for him anymore after all the pain he has caused me and our children. We will never recover from what he's done to us.

[@DisEnchantedPersons]

Divorcing a narcissist is a nightmare, especially if she has a rich Dad. I didn't know that there was so much BS paperwork in a divorce. I got served three times at work for just BS, then my employer fired me, who wants cops coming to your workplace three times in a month. Not one lawyer wanted to face her lawyer, I really couldn't believe what I was facing. I have no sympathy for a narc. You're first lie to me is your last. Forgiveness only breeds more abuse. Once a narc is gone, you are never the same. To this day seven years later she still hoovers, I think she's pathetic and I would have no reservations about calling the police if I see her again.

[@thenorthface4]

Sorry you went through that! I had no idea people made up lies to get restraining orders until I did some research when I took one out on my husband. The ones who lie make true abuse survivors look bad to some degree. I wish I would have recorded the moments I went through abuse.

[@wumphump9436]

@11:11 You touch on something very poignant - we like to poke fun at narcs but at the root they are very hurt and injured and unable to heal. These unfortunate people become hijacked by their damaged egos and cruelly they are most often not able to ever escape that ego imprisonment. It’s very sad and the destruction wrought by narcissists carves a wide swathe.

[@mariffree9732]

And sometimes the narc accuses the “normal” person of being the narc. Is able to afford very expensive attorneys while the other (after being a stay at home mom) can’t afford to keep the same attorney. I’m willing to bet there was a lot of abuse in the relationship. Glad she is free.

[@leonab545]

I wonder. If the marriage was 50/50, no prenup, couldn’t you use your mutual money for attorneys. I guess I lived under a rock but would like to understand this better.

[@MS-lg4yr]

My current situation. Served him a week ago, he’s already making every step a nightmare. Manipulating our kids, threatening to destroy me, crying fake tears to everyone (including our kids) that he just loves me and is devastated that I’m destroying our family, the list goes on. I’ve homeschooled our kids for 10 years, he’s now accusing me that I e never educated them and he took over their schooling a month ago because I don’t have the “moral capacity” to teach them (after he admitted to a marriage long porn addiction). It’s insanity and even more insane that he could win in this messed up legal system. I just want joint custody and to get away from him, but he wants to burn me to the ground.

Okay! I’m not the only one that picked up on that. I was thinking the same thing! Sometimes the attorneys just aren’t doing there job. I’m currently dealing with one that isn’t even following the things the court ordered like scheduling mediation for us and our final hearing is around the corner.

[@lo-ul8nq]

Thank you Kenny, you are so right about everything. I didn't have the greatest lawyer when I got divorce from my x husband who was a Naracist. He had a good lawyer and he got away with everything in court since he lied about everything since the judge believe his lies and so did his lawyer.

[@NOVemberMan-Esq]

Kenny, I've been through the same just a year and change ago and will be posting a no-nonsense series of videos to help people manage this outlandish behavior. We've had similar experiences! The benefit is, I am a lawyer and was at least smart enough to hire one, dumb enough to stick around too long to pay alimony. My narcissist professed to be a good Christian and was classically creating a narrative to make them look good and me bad. I disagree with your call for empathy; that's how we got here in the first place.

[@lizstraub6621]

All of that hit home, and it’s been many years… but I learned early on during the separation to always be in a robe or a sweater with deep pockets where I could hide a cheap Radio Shack tape recorder in the pocket, or if it was a phone conversation I had my cell phone recording the conversation we were having on the landline. Oh and I also had my female Dragon lady attorney demand a forensic deep dig into his finances. Cost over 100k but I said (when he told me I was screwing myself because of how much it cost) I told him, Well that’s $100k that your floozie will never see! Oh my God he was a nightmare…but when you are right, when YOU were their victim as well as your children, well… eventually you will have to put on the full armor of God and strike them down! Then the healing can begin. And it may take forever and never completely happen, but they’ve’Upped your game’ and you won’t get fooled again!Remember who the F you ARE!!

He didn't want her.... he just didn't want ME to have her!! He, frequently, called the police and misrepresented me to them. Told them outright LIES about me turning me into the evil person trying to get me arrested because I work in the court and he wanted to get me fired.... he did so much that it would take me days to write it all down.... he is still a nightmare in my life... it never ends!

8. Change all passwords to all of your online banking accounts. Password reset answers to bank accounts must changed also. You don’t want your ex to reset your passwords by correctly guessing answers 9. You can absolutely close out the joint checking account by yourself, even if you are not the primary. Open a new bank account by yourself at the same bank. This way the bank can fix auto-debits to avoid overdrafts. The bank can move your paycheck autodeposit to the new checking account immediately 10. Don’t use your lawyer as a counselor, they are much more expensive. Try not to ever email your lawyer directly, use the paralegal because it costs less. It’s a good sign if your divorce attorney requires a fee for a consultation. Visit every top lawyer in a 100 mile radius so your ex can’t hire the top lawyers. Look at the state laws for divorce and file in the state that helps your cause the most. 11. Get a POA for yourself asap. If you get hurt in an accident you don’t want the narcissist to have control over your medical care. If you have a life insurance policy change the beneficiary immediately 9. Close down your email and create a new email address 10. Stay off social media 11. Don’t talk bad about your ex in front of your kids no matter what. The kids will be able to see the truth and it will save your kids pain. Don’t use your kid as a communication tool with your ex

I divorced a narc wife thx god i watched videos on youtube so i was prepared it was stillnightmare but not the ens of the world. Here im with my son in my house watching cartons. I have manu womens around but dont trust anyone yet. So listen to this man very carefully!

[@thenorthface4]

You need an attorney familiar with dealing with narcissists. I fired my last attorney because he wasn’t familiar in dealing with narcissists and hired a team of female attorneys. Documenting is key! Have proof of everything and be prepared to back up claims/accusations made by your partner. They will twist, blame and lie to make you look bad. Also educate yourself on dealing with narcissists because it also help you understand your court proceedings as well. There is no working things out civilly with them unfortunately. I wish I was able to settle civilly but it’s not possible.

[@leonab545]

They also have the nerve going around claiming that you are not being civil when you want to split from their abuse. How dare you not worship them and stay in the marriage. You signed a contract! You must stay or else it will be hell level 2

[@piersdowell832]

Thanks for the advice Kenny. I liked the part about having some empathy for the Narcissist, it's very true, While I'm very angry and frustrated at my soon to be Ex Wife's behaviour I have to remember that she is a narcissist because of the behaviour of her Father towards her. I view it as a mental illness. I'm 2 years in from calling time and still no court date yet but life is so much better already despite still co-habiting. She trained me to have a thick skin.....

I didn't believe him and after that I couldn't trust him at all. I started feeling like he has been cheating on a constant base and I haven't just caught him till then. I wanted to confirm my suspicion.I had to know what’s going on. I was driven to know the truth, the truth is some of us have to know Everyone is different. I got a tech guy to snoop into his phone and I got all his texts, calls and social media activities. I then found out that he had 2 month old relationship with the lady he was with at the motel. I got to know this through the infos the tech guy got me from his phone without his knowledge, He got into his phone and drives. I found Dirty proofs, real dirty things. All deleted Messages, chats, Videos, Call history from 12years back where unveiled to me. This proofs where helpful cos he worked my papers for me and now I can stay with my child and have a good job.

My advice to men more than women, since men move on quicker. Stop with moving on to a new relationship during this process. Take time to grieve and focus on your divorce. Adjust to a new life. Otherwise, you’re just proving the other parties point that you’re a narcissist looking for a new “supply” of attention.

Sounds horrible. Try to stay strong and if you're a woman of faith pray for favor. If you haven't already check if your state is 'community property' one or not. If it is then it won't matter what is in his name (if you can prove esp with documents that those assets were acquired during marriage) you can include what portion of them you want in the divorce decree.
