Oh yeah and then explaining to people why you know someone feels off is hard to explain. It’s like seeing or smelling evil, hard to explain why you can sense it but harder because you have no proof, just feeling it in your differences. It’s like a radar or sixth sense.

Love and pain become one in the same in the eyes of a wounded child 🎶

Not true. I remember very well after my parents told us not to go with stange men.
When we were at a parking space in Germany on route for vacation a man came over offering my little sister a candy.
I immediately panicked and shouted for my parents at some distance right behind a corner. I do not trust, or love abusers.

The difference is when someone attracts you in a playful seductive way, signaling to play. This is not abuse, but invites for sharing an experience. So far, , so good.

This man is very intelligent. But still is in the grasp of narcissism. He just does not know better. This is his true explanation of the world. Which overall is false.
Unless you are s narcisist yourself of course.
