I have found my narc husband silenced when I say, “You are entitled to think what you want”. Complete silence. Staying calm ALL the time is quite challenging.

[John-qvjm]

Negotiating with a narrissts is like nogiatiting with a school of piranhas while swimming in water with them.

"I'm not going to dignify that with a response."

Married 50 years to a narcissist, and it has taken me many years to understand what the hell I was dealing with. Drove me away, drove me to question my worth, drove me to heavy drinking. I stopped drinking, figured things out, and learned to respect and love myself. Made me stronger.

I'm tired of walking on eggshells around the narcissist.

how to respond with comebacks to narcissists when they disrespect you
1-i agree with you in that's what you think.
2-i can see that you are upset.
3-your approach is not working for me. you'll have to find a different one. you are the one who's upset.
4-ok. (don't take their bait)
5-if you want to engage in conversation, you will need to remain calm, factual and non-emotional
6-i know that you're upset, but that's not a valid reason to be disrespectful.
7-i'm choosing not to respond to that.
8-i'm going to have to ask you to respect my boundaries.
9-i hear you.
10-if we are going to communicate, i'm going to have to ask you to do so in a way that is respectful.

Just realized that there are SO MANY narcissists out there

*"I can see that you're upset, but that is no reason to disrespect me."*

OMG...best line ever!
I'll be using it Monday at a meeting I'm dreading with a psycho narcissist. ❤Thank you❤

YES! Walk away and leave them having a tantrum on the floor.

"Your approach is not working for me.". Even if I never communicate this thought to her, it relieves the stress, and I can laugh.

They rarely rage in the workplace. They are a master of the cool cucumber as they insult and blame shift.

[Ivan-iypk]

I've said those exact things and fallen on deaf ears, so I removed myself from the situation.

[TheSaneHatter]

I've actually seen the "okay" tactic used in another YouTuber's short vids: just saying "Okay" over and over until they ask why you're saying that, and then retorting with "I'm not agreeing with you; I just don't care." 😉

[Priyamvadha]

Been there. Suffered terrible verbal and psychological abuse, extortion, manipulation, financial exploitation from devious elder sister and husband. She was a sadist basking in others' suffering, treating her siblings and colleagues like trash. She uses foul and coarse language, jealous of every girl and woman down her street or in her acquaintance.Threw them out of our life. Now enjoying so much peace and happiness.

I will not stand for "Triangulation" game's played by an Narcissist.

@11:02: "We are in Earth school as a Soul...if you don't learn this lesson the lesson will continue to present itself to you..." This is exactly it. We're being educated. I aim to learn it now with all its difficulty so I don't have to learn it again.

Yes! I have court in 2 hrs for alimony from a 31 yr marriage. I’ve been up all night. He’s begging for another chance and I’m not doing it. I’ve been deathly ill for a decade, even bedridden on a piic line. I’m regaining my health and losing my marriage and can’t be happier 😊

[Greenwings]

One question about the first "agreement" is that this person doesn't treat everyone the same way. Sometimes entire groups won't. You may well see someone being singled out. The quiet guy, the nice guy who doesn't retaliate. They'll pile on. It becomes socially acceptable to have a target. That guy probably has a hard time thinking it's not personal. Quandary of the scapegoats, the person with lower social value. It's very toxic, cowardly, etc.

[Petunia-omjo]

I'm not going to give her the satisfaction for disrespectful me. So, I made my mind to leave.
