The trouble is, most normal souls have not come across narcissistic abuse before… the red flags are gently hoisted, rather than waved in your face… all I can say to anyone who is thinking they are with someone who is showing the tiniest of traits is RUN. Trust your gut. Don’t take any chances. Not one.
If this message helps just one person I’m happy. Please please don’t spend 6 years thinking everything will change and then 3 years sorting out your head. X

Wow - this really hit home for me. I am batting 6 out of 7. I have to make sure I stick to my "staying away" from her. She is indeed, toxic, manipulative, entitled and utterly self absorbed UNTIL she needs something. Great video.

The best time to leave a narcissist was as soon as you met. The second best time to leave a narcissist is now.

Yes Lise this is exactly what I dealt with. The trauma bond I had was the hardest thing I ever went through after the breakup. I was filled with anxiety and depression. As I look back I can’t believe this happened to me. It’s very scary to think about it. This type of abuse can destroy a very good person. Thank god for anti-narcissist videos. They saved me. I binged watched them everyday.

I needed to hear this today ❤
I've been fighting the urge to get in touch with my partner who I've been in a trauma bonded relationship with over 20 years. She has all the characteristics of a dismissive avoidant vulnerable narcissist and the chronic stress put me in therapy after physical mental and emotional illness. The confusion is her total lack of any sense of fault together with her insidious ways of playing victim and creating total confusion over what's going on in her head. I've watched many of your videos Lise and understand fully that it's a toxic connection but it's so hard to give up on someone you've shared a huge chunk of your life with/ had some of your best times with and still hold love and hope for making it work. I walked out a month ago after spending my day plumbing in her new toilet ( we're not married or living together-- her choice! )
and she rewarded my efforts by picking an argument over something trivial. 2 days later I got a weak text apology saying she was tired that day. I didn't reply. 10 days later she sent a pleasant text saying she was alone and doing nothing. I asked if she'd like to meet up as she lives locally and the reply was NO, I want to be alone, I'm never going back.
I asked why she bothered sending her apology and said OK let's call it a day but understand I'm not sticking around for when you change your mind or need something from me so DON'T GET IN TOUCH AGAIN. She replied she thought we could stay friends. Then as usual she puts it on me saying contact me if you want to.
3 weeks on with no contact I'm ruminating over her. I know she'll have given her family and friends her usual sob story making me the problem and also I DON'T TRUST HER as far as her having someone else in the background she sees during the frequent no contact times she's created by provoking rows knowing I always walk away and go no contact. She was married 3 times before we met .Her last husband was more of a sugar daddy as I've been told she chatted him up when she was a young single mum traffic warden and he was in his 50s but quite wealthy owning his own business .
He passed away age 70 she met me 9 months later. I'm not wealthy!!
She just thought I was a nice guy trustworthy and good looking and a bit younger than her as well.
I look after myself keep fit go to the gym etc but she's not ageing gracefully although still attractive( when she bothers- which for me is hardly ever)
That's part of the reason I don't trust her not scheming a more prosperous old age with her next nice guy !?? Am I paranoid?
or wising up to the manipulation and games of a narcissist woman.
Her family liked me and she was so reluctant to introduce me knowing her faithful loving husband had only been dead 9 months therefore she's cunningly laid the groundwork by running me down to them saying I walk out on her or shout at her but never telling them what she does to provoke it. She is a true wolf in sheeps clothing .
I hope I stay strong and do the right thing. I guess her apology text was testing my response so she could do the reverse discard trick !
God save us from the evil hearted.

I Think I'm Paralysed By Confusion An Cognitive Dissonance And Fear. I'm Not Even Sure Who I'm In Relationship With. Everything Is So Confusing And Shifty Subtle And Sneaky. I Find I Cannot Identify Anyone With Certainty. Everyday There Is different Signs Pointing To different People. I Found Years Ago That Seeking Help Only Led To The Helper Being Enlisted By Someone Who Was Targeting Me And Triangulated Against Me.

Lise you rock! All the information you give to all of us is pure GOLD. You are a very balanced person emotionally/spiritually and that shows physically. 10/10

[youtubehatesus]

I've watched vids on other channels, but Lise nails it. Thank you. Now that I see what has been going on I am angry, but more importantly free. I now see the game in its entirety. It's all suddenly crystal clear.

This is incredibly clear and helpful. Thank you.

The clinical analysis in your content is an affirming compliment to the emotional survival instincts that eventually seek the actions necessary for self preservation.

They get worse. They always get worse. If someone had told me this just three months in I would have gotten out four decades ago.

I've been studying the topic of narcissist personality disorder for 3 years now and since yesterday, when I first saw one of your videos, I immediately subscribed to your channel. Getting educated about narcissism has helped me a lot. Because of my two kids (8 and 10 year-old) I'm still stuck in a relationship that only drains everything I can offer. Your videos are extremely valuable. Keep up the great work. Best wishes, Lise.

Awesome information— I got stuck on trying to diagnose and understand so I could save the relationship. Have learned a lot on the journey and now know we should never have to do anything of that sort. Let them go. Abusers are addicted to the control they feel from committing abuse.
