Their fear of vulnerability is the cause, and their toxicity is the method. That's a new way to see it.

I have just managed to break away from an emotionally abusive relationship. I always knew her true nature, right from the beginning, but I kept focusing hard on the ways in which she was kind or sweet. I would also focus on the ways in which she was *not* bad, to, again, help form the narrative in my head that things were fine. I think my biggest fear was the amount of pain that the breakup would cause. And it did indeed cause that pain. I've still not recovered. But what I will tell you is that it is totally worth it. I may be bruised, but I can live and breathe again, I can be without criticism, upbraiding, continual chipping away at my self-worth, all in the guise of love.

So, if you are in that situation, GET OUT. You know you are being abused - that is all you need to know. And that means you must make an escape, and fast. It will be tough, you will keep missing them, feeling like you have done a terrible thing to them by running away. And they will do their best to make you feel that way, by appealing to your pity. But you must remain steadfast. Block them on every platform. If necessary, ask a trusted friend or family member to tell them to please leave you alone, if you really feel you owe the abuser an explanation. But don't make contact with them. They will win you back, if you do, especially because you are not thinking straight yet, and when you see them or hear their voice, your heart will melt.

So, in short, you MUST leave. You will treasure your freedom like never before when you are out of that relationship.

Sometimes the cycling is in sync with triangulation activities .. the first narc I was with in my 20s was incredibly deceptive and malignant and the ‘cycle of being close’ didn’t seem to last more than a day or 2 … and it wasn’t normal at that either but that was my first serious relationship … that’s what happens when one grows up in a family with an utter lack of healthy emotional connection with the parents .. there is no reference to what healthy reciprocal emotional attachment acts like though one sees it obvious in other families that don’t have a malignant narc parent … I loved being around my best friends’ and neighbor’s grandmother who was always warm and very comfortable to ge around providing us with soup and what not … I don’t recall a single friend of mine OR of my 6 siblings friends wanting to stay at our house during the day just to hang out though there were a few rare sleepovers in grade school .. we always played at THEIR house

I love that this message is human. I've met narcissists and they aren't as bad as they're portrayed. By society, they're demonised. I still think the best way is to distance yourself from such people but it's good to remember they're people. This video helps so much in giving people, even some with bad and toxic tendencies, dignity.
Often when sensitive and good-hearted people fall in love there is a heart under that layer of coldness that other not so keen people hardly see. Yet when they choose not to use that heart it makes us mad, frustrated because we wished things to go differently. And, I took a long time to figure this out, but we weren't blind by imagining a different outcome where they were loving us. There was the capability. But never the possibility.
I wish people would know this brilliant gem, yet I think even with this information people would keep hating on certain personalities. Because pointing fingers is easier than empathising and there's a satisfaction from giving the blame to someone.

I just dont want to accept that i should let him go.... It is making me emotional annorexic. I probably rather starve them leave, how sick is Help.

Intermittent reinforcement is an age-old psychological manipulation.

Yes, I have been there. What happens next ?

Yes, fear of intimacy, fear of losing themselves in relationship - currently living this with my Wife of 22 years. She simply lives in her head, behind walls and refuses to engage fully in our relationship to any degree that would invite physical or real connected emotional intimacy. happy living o the edge of real relationship. withdrawn all physical affection that isn't something you could get from your Aunt - nothing leading to or involving kissing, or sex. she doesn't see it is destructive because she has rationalized her choice to isolate as "everyone says this is normal".

Mam my always use to say that i know you are not beautiful but i married because i thought you are patient and have good character, is it emotional abuse or he is narcisst. However i left him as i dont want to be in a relationship where a person constantly lower my selfesteem based on my looks

[grabbelton]
