Dealing with one right now actually. Paid some decent coin to talk to someone about it. Turns out the first rule in dealing with a narcessist is never feed the narcessist. Just get on with life and move on. Don't respond, reach out or ask around about how they're going. Just got to get up and go. Sounds harsh but they don't empathise with things well adjusted people do. People are just things they use to get something from. Friends are just tools. In reality they're just trying to do what they have to due to past trauma they're protecting themselves from. They put on a mask. Don't bother calling them out on anything, they can get real nasty. Better to just move on.
liltiger...genuinely
😍, thank you so much for your advice and you are 💯correct about everything you have said.
I'm just so sorry and I am full of empathy knowing that you have been caught in the trap as well.
I've recently discovered a site called Quora on the comp. and just reading that has helped me tremendously.
Good luck liltiger
👍and stay strong 👊 💪 until you work out what is best for YOU and keep on staying strong after you have worked out what is best for YOU, because as you know we will always come of 2nd best no matter what we do if we stay in the same predicament.
When you actually love the person you are with, it makes it twice as hard to make the decision that you know is going to make their life worse while at the same time making your own life better.
I am so happy
😆 for you, so happy that you had the guts to come on here and trust me liltiger, and let us ALL know what life holds for people like you... and me.
A very big % of people don't realise what and who they are dealing with on here, and that's ok. But you were perceptive enough to know what was going on in my posts, so you reached out and that's 'impressive'
👍.
Maybe people on here might like to keep in mind the word empathy
🤔 when they are having a debate.
Don't forget posters, if it floats yuh boat enough, keep those love notes coming in to me, just don't 'expect' to get a serious answer from me though, but I will if I can.
There is so much you and I could say, but it's an open forum so I best finish here.
Remember...those who control the present control the past, and those that control the past control the future.
I really don't know if these amazing words from George Orwell will help you, but it seems to fit into where we are both at.
Keep yuh chin up liltiger. You can overcome this. I can feel in my water 🍉🚱
🤣.
If you need to pm me, please don't hesitate, but I sometimes won't be able to get back to you straight away.
