I’m living this right now. Love for everyone watching this for the same reasons. Hoping we all get through this without becoming monsters ourselves ❤

That is exactly what betrayal feels like. It’s horrible and dark.

[szintod]

That's is why I studied psychology, so that I can spot people's incongruences even before they can realise them, and that is a super power .

[jamesdelcol]

I am now used to betrayal and failure. I plan for it. People are very disappointing.

Jordan always outlines the catastrophising mind brilliantly well

I’m legit going through this rn and it’s actually so nice to see I’m not the only one in the comment section

I made a great sacrifice to get to my beloved niece's wedding. I was the only blood relative she had, other than her parents and sister. And she didn't want me in a single wedding photograph. That was when I realised my narcissistic family had secretly rejected me. It was one of the worst days of my life. Listening to JP on betrayal has been very comforting. His expression 'violation of kinship' put the pain into some sort of containment.

It's different when it's your parents that betray you.

[IamStreber]

I thought I was listening to my thoughts out loud….lol then I realized dang my thinking voice doesn’t sound like that. He certainly did hit the nail on the head.

[audrablue]

This is what betrayal is like with a narcissist especially. It’s taken me a long time to get through that.

[alisonlittlewood]

Yes, absolutely accurate and apparently women feel betrayal far more deeply than men

[KarenT-khsy]

Wow! He hit that right on target. That is exactly what I feel like. Betrayal from someone you thought would never put you in harms way or lie to you, it's devastating 💔.

[penniroyal]

That’s why I have a therapist and we talk about trauma caused by a narcissist who blindsides you. She helps me plan and map out a recovery process so I can move on 🙏 because it’s not about me but about what happened to me 😢 my value is not what happened to me but what I am willing to do to recover the person I use to be.

[Agent_Chieftain]

This just happened to me yesterday. I'm handling it better than I thought I would, but holy crap, it's still really hard.

[lindastrang]

Exactly what happened to me. Thank you for putting into words for me Jordan.

[MrChrispy]

My wife cheated on me for 10 years.
My heart was crushed.
My wife didn't care in the least.
Those were the darkest days of my life.

[stevegungel]

What goes around, comes around. Enough said.

[wintereve]

I trust myself if someone betrays me I have the choice of forgiveness or letting go - it’s a reflection on them and my actions are a reflection on me…I don’t think I’m different because of it…

[Coldbrookdangee]

Just spent 6 months being lied to and cheated on daily and the girl is 4 months pregnant with possibly my kid and I’m just now finding out everything. This is exactly where I am.
