When someone starts a smear campaign, I sit back and watch who believes the lies. And then I’ll know who aren’t my real friends after all.

[gurudra]

When a narcissist can no longer control you, he begins trying to control how others see you

[tonyrandall]

Never vent to a narcissist. Either about their BS or others... Oh my you will regret it. They love chaos.

[d.j.howardindtla]

A narcissist will annihilate your families/close relationships like their life depends on it. This behavior dynamic acts like a filter for emotionally healthy people. Those who sign-up to be a narcissist's "flying monkey" usually lack critical thinking skills or are narcissistic themselves. Hurray for anyone in the group who sees through this.

[zaeinabafsari]

I learned from my life experience to never defend myself in front of the flying monkeys. They already picked a side and will never believe my side of the story. I just walk a way.

[spiritofhonuguidanceforlife]

I went through this. Honestly, I don't even care anymore. If people can't be bothered to learn the truth and hear all sides of a situation, then those aren't the kind of people I want around me anyways.

[TeresaAvila]

Evil always destroys itself. So just watch...

[purposefullyme]

If a person can be turned against you, then that is a person who is not worthy of your presence. Those who genuinely love and care for you will not believe negativity about you.

[jillmarie]

When you cut ties with a narcissist you realize who your friends really are.

[margaretwilkinson]

What to do when "friends" believe a smear campaign perpetuated by a narcissist: walk away and find better friends.

[sheri]

This is the most insidious abuse they do. I feel so sorry for all of us that have had this done.

[hendrickadalm]

My narc tried to turn my friends of 20yrs against me. My friends told me later, We kept thinking it just didnt sound like you. So we showed him the door!!!❤❤real friends

[MtuckerGoBlue]

I expect it from a narcissist. What really disappointed me was how easily others fell into their "flying monkey" roles. Leaves you disappointed in mankind as a whole.

[cynthiawebster]

It's rough when your mother's the one who turns your siblings against you. Rougher still, when your siblings buy into it.

[deirdrehar]

If someone is telling you bad things about another person, theyre definitely telling other's bad things about you.

[tamarbatyah]

"With his mouth the hypocrite can ruin his neighbor,
but by knowledge the righteous are delivered." Prov. 11:9

[kgs]

The betrayal is so painful, especially when it’s family members who believe the narc and turn against you.

[webdoar]

They're so successful in this because so many people are overly ready to hear & believe negative things

[jacksavage]

If the narcissist is able to turn people against you, the people were against you in the first place. The narcissist is defeated and all this is desperate behavior. Game over for the narc.

[sabinemann]

If a narcissist no longer has control over you, he/ she will convince people around you that you are the issue. Hold your head up high, carry yourself with grace. Eventually, things will fall into place
