      My ex lied just to lie. I never understood why he would choose lies over truth. It was actually a game to him. The lying began early in our marriage. I was too trusting, the perfect target for a Covert Narcissist. I hung on for 47 years. Not because I was stupid but because I was trusting and hoped he would change. Sadly, I’ve recently heard from a woman I knew in the past and she also fell for his lies. Ugh. I’m SO glad God brought me the man of my dreams to me. We have been married over five years now and I know what a truly loving marriage is all about. Never give up hope!

    I was in therapy contemplating divorce. Back then I didn't know what a narcissist was but i knew this relationship was just "off." My therapist told me she had never given the advice she was about to give me as her job in counseling was to try and save marriages. She told me to run. I did. Moved out of state. Never looked back. There was a lot of shame on my part for feeling so stupid. I couldn't even talk about it to my family. The gaslighting, the lies, my low self esteem, the total chaos of it all. It broke me for a long time. But getting far away and not engaging with him was the smartest thing I ever done.

      In three sentences he will say something with the first is absolute, then a cut down, then the opposite thing as the first sentence is a fact. It's like the cutdown is then ignored when I bring it to his attention that two opposing things can't be true, but it's just to make confusion in me so the cut down is all that sticks. It's terribly abusive. I am not able to make sense of anything at all that he says. He rants for hours with mostly cut downs after he's built his anger from being confusing with interspersed cut downs to straight cut downs that don't stop then if I interject anything he rages and then screams he's a victim, very loudly. Over and over nearly everyday. It's psychotic.

    A red flag that I ignored a LONG time ago. I was in college and I met this guy. We started hanging out. I had a car and he did not. He asked if he could borrow my car keys to put his books in my car and he would give them back after his next class. I said okay. When he gave me the keys back, he told me that he borrowed my car to drive home and he came back. His home was a half hour away. I was young and I didn't want to be petty, so I let it go. He turned out to be very abusive, and looking back, that was one of the first tests to see if I would tolerate him taking advantage of me. Of course I never should have given him the keys, but I should have dumped him right them.

Parental approval is nice, but if they haven't demonstrated it, they aren't going to. They already played their best card.

      I know people say narcissists never share anything about themselves and that they project blame, so I wanted to share my partial experience with a family member of mine, not to cast blame but to show my insight of what has happened.
      My parents are parental narcissists. My brother is a narcissist. My brother has blamed me many times and my parents always chose to believe him. I am a guy with an intellectually neurodivergent disability and I have a soft voice. It feels like people around me take advantage of me and act like I am dumb for some reason or another and people like to play dumb about it.(0:25)
      3:12 (I would tell people about my family or History) but I would prefer to forget about my family completely and move on. The only person I would trust to some degree is my dad as I understand concepts of trust and exchange of personal value. My parents most likely have talked about me behind my back most of my life and made decisions for me based on my own perceived disability even to the Courts in order to run my life (I have never accepted the fact people think they get to run my life including the Court system)
      My family chose to ignore the warning signs my brother would put out on me. I could easily be labelled as being a narcissist because I could be seen as blaming him (as many narcissists do that) although what I am saying is true. I do have disability, but I am intelligent because many famous people have disabilities much like my own Self. I have been blamed my Self by my own parents based on how I reacted to my own brother based on his mean behavior towards me (many other channels explain how the narcissists try to induce reactions from other people to make those same people look like they are the problem/issue)
      I have lived on my own for over 3 years now in my own apartment and I see my family for who they actually are which made me try to understand how my life ended up the way it did. It has been tough finding out they weren't as supportive as I thought they should be. I had to really deeply think back visually on the family dynamic and memories to see the reality of why I was treated the way I was being treated. They (my family) kept blaming past history on me and assuming I hadn't changed at all as a person because of what past therapist service people had told them about how they thought I was as a person from when I was younger.
      I need to Restore my Civil Rights because they (my narcissistic family) caused that issue for me as well (The Courts think they can take Rights away from disadvantaged people) I am trying to live a life where I can get married or have a Girlfriend like everyone else and feel equal to my spouse or future Girlfriend without feeling like I have less Rights as a person than they do, have the same opportunities and experiences without a higher authority or person thinking they can dictate my life. So that's where I am at currently in my own life. I am trying to be the Architect of my own life and I do have a vision for my ideal life as well as a high level of awareness.
      If I start my own family someday, I will build them up to be their best and help them be happy unlike my parents did for me. I want to make sure people have a higher level of awareness of the narcissists in society that think they are the Architects of other people's lives. I don't want anyone to go through the same amount of pain and suffering that I had to endure as a person.
      The abuse from narcissists makes it feel as if a person has gone through an emotional battle zone without ever having stepped on a battlefield. I had to find others I cared about to boost my drive in life to be better and get over the depression I felt.
      One time my narcissistic brother told me he wished I would --- myself, that's how I knew he was trying to make me feel bad on purpose and he didn't want to see me alive. He tried making me feel as bad as he could but I always knew there was a reason he was doing it. I don't even care or focus on my narcissist because there are people in my community that I care about and would rather get to know (people that I love or care about)
      The narcissist tries to ruin a person's self-image and reputation from what I learned from my own observations of how I was treated in my own life.
      People often times may assume that how a victimized person 'reacts' to a narcissist can be misconstrued as the victimized person "being the narcissist" because of how "they react" to the Narcissist's own behavior.
      Some people who get victimized by narcissists go through Government institutions and have medications forced on them and become Gaslighted or convinced into thinking they have behavioral issues or problems by the same people that are supposed to help them.
      These institutions convince people they need to medicate when in fact they could have been a victim of narcissistic abuse.
      I am worried and seriously concerned that tons of people may not actually understand or comprehend how widespread the issue of Narcissistic Abuse may actually be. I try my best to explain and spread knowledge on this issue but there is only so much a single person like me can do to spread the wisdom on the topic as I would get burnt out trying to explain this information on every forum every single day of the week and I want to feel average without becoming tired. I relay this information in the hopes that it helps (everyone) gain an even greater understanding of really bad Narcissistic dynamics. Maybe our Societal dynamics can improve with the wisdom I provide, that is at least my hope for the Future of Society and beyond.
      I believe everyone needs others that care about them in their own lives, let's not stick around Narcissists that drag us down to their level and hurt our public relations.

Including accusing me multiple time of cheating on them with a person that does not even exist, in front of other people. Leaving me feel dazed and wondering what the ?

There are narcissists and then there are people who learned their behavior who need help. None of us are perfect but there narcissistic abuse of a narcissist can be found in their consistent actions and what they say. People aren't perfect and some things are not always as they appear so people should be careful not to be so quick to label someone who is not narcissistic. Because often times there are real problems that can appear narcissistic when they are not.

    Being an empath that has witnessed a narcissist doing something that they immediately deny is debilitating. I have never fought something more soul crushing than the emotions inside my body when someone I love is in 'lie until you die' mode over something that they saw me witness them doing. What really rang my bell is when I was cornered into believing that it was all in my head and that I must need psychological help. Using my own insight against me in one of the worst gaslighting events of my life was a real eye opener to the indifference of narcissism. Not only did I not see what I saw, I was supposed to put my mind in prison for everyone to see that I am not sane enough to accuse anyone of anything that I 'saw'. Using the love of an empath to make them question their own sanity must feel very empowering. This is how a sigma empath is unleashed. I can smell your lie now.

But add a few zeros to end of that number and presto! Game changes and not always in the way you want. So be prepared for that and don’t waste your emotional energy moralizing about it.

    Agree. For me, one of the telltale signs he's either lying or refusing to take accountability, is the consistent avoiding talking about the facts. Common phrases are 'here we go again' and 'oh god you're difficult' and 'that's just what you say'. He just doesn't respond to the details at hand, ever. He changes the narrative and gaslights me when I stick to my guns or walks away. When I spoke to him about his swearing at me or not standing up for me when his mother had been very cruel towards me (she demonstrates heavy covert narcicistic traits as does he), his standard response was, is 'now you're picking a fight, don't be so difficult or sensitive'. In terms of emotional response, he common reaction is extremely cold, not explosive Yes sometimes he loses it. And does purposely verbally abuse me if I don't do what he wants. I have been trying to divorce him for 5 years and am exhausted. He literally tells me he hopes I drop dead soon. But I will not give up

      First of all, I am so proud of you, it takes great courage to leave a narcissist but you can do it! You have to be SUPER SNEAKY now to survive what you are about to do (I don’t know if you have children or not but when you escape, get full custody)! Do these things BEFORE you leave and do NOT tell ANYONE! If he gets wind of what you’re planning, you might be in danger.
      1. Get a divorce lawyer, have him draw up papers spelling out exactly what you want down to a T, see above regarding children. Serve your soon-to-be ex AFTER you’ve moved out!
      2. Get a P.O. Box so you can get your own mail. He won’t be able to trace you by your address with a P.O.Box.
      3. Open a bank account and start putting as much as you can into it.
      You’re going to need money to survive. Write checks for your groceries and make the amount $10-$50 bucks more than the total and put the money in your account asap. Siphon money from wherever you can, whenever you can without drawing attention to it or getting caught and ALWAYS put the “extra” in your account right when you get it so you don’t spend it!
      I hope this is helpful for you. I hope you stay safe until you get out of the situation. God Bless you! ❤️🙏

    I wonder if that narcissist that was copying you was doing it because they don't really know who they are. They actually take on somebody else to become like. If it's one thing I found out is that a narcissist has no clue who they really are. And they will kind of copy or mimic other people that they admire or think are worth something and are acquiring something, so they will begin to copy or mimic that person. They become somebody different almost regularly. At home they are one type and when they're with others they are somebody and if they watched a movie at the theater they become somebody in the movie when they walk out of the theater it's as if they have no idea who they really are.

    I'm a 76 year old man. I thought I'd seen it all, including narcissistic people, but I was scammed recently by a very effective narcissist. She had documents to support everything she said, so I ignored my spine-tingling signs... to my regret. I had sent emails to check on a couple of key documents she had submitted and found they were totally forged... including a college diploma.
    I lost some money, but was able to pull out of the scam by showing her what I'd found.
    She's in another country, so I doubt I can get my money back, let alone have the cops go after her. But I'll announce who she (said she) is in several key places to perhaps expose her to potential victims.
    Like you and your partner, I go over the history of our interaction, and canNOT figure out how she got past my strong defenses and got me to shell out some hard cash.
