    I am almost 60 years old. I have always been a people pleaser and always seem to be a magnet for manipulators, narcissists, and toxic people. Obviously, it is long overdue for me to set boundaries, guard my heart, and realize that it is ok to say, "no"!

      I just turned 75 and recognized three toxic relationships in my life and ended two of them and just told a younger sister that I'm taking "time out" and will pray for her. She completely drains me with her drama and poor me attitude and since this has been going on for decades and I've done a LOT of healing in the past 2 years and have gotten discernment by God's grace but was at a loss of how to handle the situation I'm the oldest of 4 & was "the little mother" since age of 5...completely codependent in every way.
      You have helped me so much Kris!!!!
      I just want to say to the commenter, SIXTY IS A GREAT PLACE TO BE!!! That's when my journey of healing and learning my part and what to do differently next time.
      This was a fantastic video because I saw what I do and feel to attract these types of people. Now that I know I can pray with God's help not to have that vulnerability. More healing...

    The way these narcissists hijack conversations has DEFINITELY happened to me more than once - SOOOO frustrating! You're right - they ABSOLUTELY will not allow you speak for fear that you'll show individuality

    • @raccoondon488
      @raccoondon488 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      You could ask them point blank….”why don’t you allow me to speak ?” Another tactic would be to deliberately just quietly in the middle of a “lecture” just get up and walk away. When they ask why you do that then tell them you like two way conversations instead of lectures. Another option would be “push those people out of your life”. If you can’t do that then spend far less time around them. Some people are extremely frustrating and I understand what you are saying….it’s like a “social disease” on their part”. A pandemic of social ignorance or stupidity.

    You have tremendously blessed me with bringing to light my co-dependency and my role as an empath to the toxic behavior from my covert narcissistic husband. I didn’t know what a narcissist was until just a few years ago. I am 62, married for 39 years and have been “blamed” by my husband for every failure in our marriage and also for the strained relationships I now have with my three adult daughters (even estranged from one for 13 years, along with her 3 children). My husband told me 3 weeks ago not to speak to him unless it was about finances. He has abandoned me emotionally and physically, staying outdoors in his shop for 8-12 hours a day. He has told me countless times that no one can stand being around me. I cannot have a conversation with him without deflection, projection and rejection. I am now wondering if my husband has been grooming my daughters over the years so that I would shoulder the blame as the toxic parent. The only hope I have left is my strong faith in Jesus, my Savior. My guilt, my regret, my anxiety, my failures, my anger, my insecurities, my low self-esteem - all of those burdens placed on me by Satan - are all evaporating with hearing and digesting the awesome revelations I have received through your ministry. I have learned how to begin to heal since listening to you, just over the last month. I know my worth as a daughter of the King, my true bridegroom and my perfect Savior, rescuing me from disappointment, depression and despair. I cannot express my appreciation to you and for you. I have little to give back, but my prayers for your blessing and my thankfulness to the Lord for you is and will always be lifted up to Him, to His throne of grace. The Lord bless you and keep you always, in all ways. Thank you!

      Perhaps, if you don't work outside the house, you can volunteer or work part time to make friends. My work friends are my refuge and ONE lady is in a similar situation so we talk. Since narcissist project everything, I would say HE is the one noone likes. I would be so busy that I wouldn't even want to talk to my husband. It's sad but that's what I do. I work, read, have animals, kids and friends...

My middle daughter sided with my husband but the other two see my side, but are still sad that we are going to get a divorce. But my husband use to stay in his shop all day too! He is now love bombing me to get me to stay. At least I’m not the only one who stayed with someone who always put him self first for so long. If feel like the truth always comes out in Gods timing.

      ​@@jon8230Christians are to obey God's word period, and if we are married the only out is if there is infidelity (or if physical abuse a separation needs to happen for safety reasons). The Bible doesn't say divorce if your husband is mean and manipulative, it says even if they don't obey the word by a wife's conduct she can win him over, that is the hope. However, it is also a matter of sanctification. That difficult marriage mirrors Jacob and Leah or Abigail and Nabal, we have an example of how God deals on our behalf. He may deliver us like in Abigail's case or we simply remain in it but our suffering leads to greater dependence on God rather than that man like in the case of Leah or Hannah. This information is useful because we can understand the thinking of such a manipulative person and we can train ourselves to think and respond appropriately.

      Me too. I specifically being about four years old and sitting on my bed and crying, thinking “why don’t I have a mother”? A REAL Mother that loved me, would let me sit in her lap and read a book to me, would who ask me a question just to see what the answer would be, who would hug me or show affection. I knew as early as that , that this was not normal. The first time my Mother ever hugged me was when I got married. Of course all my other relatives were hugging me after the wedding as I was about to leave with my new Husband. She came to hug me for the first time. I was so shocked I couldn’t hug her back. It felt awkward and wrong. Been married for over 35 years now, and she has never initiated a hug from me since. It’s ok now. I have grown children who I hugged Every Single Day. I became the Mother that I needed. 👏🏼🙌💕💖😃. I had to break that chain. And I did.🥰

It’s been difficult, as she has alot of oppression and my heart goes out to her, but her emotional manipulation has run its course...I’m too exhausted. Holy Spirit told me to stop making excuses for her, it’s just enabling her. I don’t need to please others.

      I've been mobbed and gaslighting at work for over 12 years till present. Full of NPD cowards at work and will end up exposing themselves.. I'm a top worker, jealous of me big time and of my money and condo too. Defamation of character. Saying I'm a stalker, I drink, I'm crazy. All bs. Managers are scared of the bullies, they do nothing, union, police are all totally useless too. Toxic workplace in healthcare. Been working 38 years and never been suspended. Action speaks louder than words. But this crap never ends trying to scare the women at work, all the insecure and toxic women. I will never quit due to these lazy bums with no life. These 2 guys should be locked up and have the manager fired.

    When I finally stopped begging him to stop the silent treatment and said “I don’t like it when you storm off and refuse to talk about it. I want to discuss this with you when you’ve calmed down.” he just came out the next day as if nothing had happened. When I said, “Can we talk about it now?” he said “No!” Then I would ask “When do you think we can discuss this?” he said “Never!”
    Please be aware this kind of conversation can escalate to violence and have your safety plan ready.

      @LiveforHim73 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      You stated this perfectly. They will not let you discuss anything at any time!
      When they do this for decades you let them go. The whole family has had personal rejection encounters with him. He’s is the only person that has the true religion. He’s in authority and and demands it especially if you are a woman. We girls can’t pray without him or a man. He texted it to us.
      In the past two years getting close to him in the same room, there’s an oppressive dark chill in the air. I’ve had to get out and get away from him. It like when I stepped on a curled up rattle snake in the milk barn after I open up the door. I didn’t look down. I knew the second I stepped on it what it was. Thankfully I stepped on it head first. He could not bite me but then how do you jump off without getting bit! My legs turned to pure rubber bands after the escape! I think of this every time I have to encounter my brother. Its not if I will get bit? It’s when! And it’s poisonous!
      We have rattlesnakes at our farm that’s 93 mile north to our city home. Amazing We would rather live at the farm than deal with toxic humans. Snakes are protecting themselves.
      A toxic person wants to poison you for their own internal hurts. Mentality is: I need to take you down with me in my selfish created cultish religion.
      It’s a sad situation!
      Our mom is 93.
      When she leaves us, I think this relationship will cease. But, God can do amazing things in us! Seen so many miracles, it gives me hope for healing!

      He doesn't get your heart.
      He doesn't get your sex.
      He doesn't get your attention and laughs.
      In fact, he doesn't have much power at all.
      Keep smiling and be direct and kind, like you have a secret plan. We do have a secret plan, God is by our side. So put one foot in front of the other when it comes to money. God will show you the way, but please just keep praying to Him to be the best you can be to yourself while managing a difficult situation. Prayers for you🙏

    The narcissist, I know and have not been around for a year used to say everything she wanted to say in the conversation then, when it was my turn, would either hang up the phone say she can’t talk or say this makes no sense. Later on, I realized, and I told her I’m gonna listen to what you say, but I’m not gonna speak because every time you say what you want to then you interrupt me or you hang up the phone it’s not a dialogue it’s a monologue. I was respectful because she’s my elder, but I felt good to tell her in a respectful way that I was not gonna tolerate it. Now I have gotten no contact with her for over a year, at first it was hard, but I feel good not being around her that I’m not hurt.

    I think how we overcome co-dependency is to take full responsibility for ourself, for our actions and behavior, and for our feelings. If this person gives me a chilling feeling, it's not my responsibility to force them to change - it's my responsibility to distance myself and put up social protection layers until I feel safe. That feeling isn't a signal to control the other person or their behavior, it's a signal that I might require space.

Found out after i left him how much no one else had liked him. I got a flat and got a goid job even though im not trained in anything. Id told him i didnt want to sell the house knowing he would. He put it on the market without telling me so i didnt let him know i was leaving. He rang me up at 11 pm to say what time you coming back i said im not. Id got my stuff out bit by bit. Ive never been happier i just love tge peace and love living my own life how i want it not living his life anymore. Just leave them and trust the process yo work out.

    I know a woman I grew up with where her parents/ mother had weeks of silent treatment and now in her relationship with her husband she does the same. When I talked to her about this tactic vs. speaking truth with her husband she said it was normal. I of course responded it is not normal. Just another form of generational abuse which her now grown up daughter suffered through during her childhood.

      I'm giving the 'silent treatment' to my narc husband. I've tried reasoning with him, but he always lies his way out. I've realized, through this ministry, there's no point in reasoning with him. He doesn't care. I've only realized this two weeks ago though, which is when I've started the silent treatment.
      I know I am a child of Yahweh. I know He's got my back. Let's see what He has on store for me. This ministry is teaching me. I know Yahweh led me here

    Kris. Thank you for this uplifting message, and for your personal response to my question. I obtained wisdom with understanding from this livestream, and I saw much the moment you mentioned how it’s not my job to get people to change. Instead, it’s my job to guard my heart. Like you said, my response is my responsibility. I’ve been fooled a lot and been resentful for a long time. I need to get back on the driver’s seat, being led by the Holy Spirit. I pray that I don’t focus on the title but the fruit of the tree. Much appreciated, Kris. Spectacular video - certainly watching it again!!! Glory to God. 🕊⛲️

    To the question that was asked, can a child learn to get out of or deal with a manipulative parent? Yes first of all I want to say something here. I loved my mom and I loved my grandmother. My mom was very manipulative and I believe she learned that from my grandmother who was also very manipulative. But when I was in my early 20s I recognized some things were not right. I couldn't put my finger on it and I hadn't realized my mom was being manipulative or that my grandmother was manipulative. But I realized that there was something going on between my mom's relationship with me and my relationship with my mom. It wasn't quite right and it wasn't just mine. It was also the relationships it was going on between my brother and sister and my mom. I was the oldest so and I was the one that was working so I think I was the one that was manipulated more and it took me a few years to understand what I was seeing. My mother was working. She was a project manager for a project that was going on in another country. She was one of many project managers but she was a project manager. When that project ended they laid off a bunch of people in. She was one of those that were many of those people that relate off. She was hired for that project and that project was over so they let her go after that was over with and I'm not talking about months. I'm talking days later she was too sick to go to work but yet she was quite all right to go everywhere else to the store to the the comedy club over the friend's houses. Go to stores. Spend days or hours at the stores but she was too sick to go to work and she couldn't find a job that she was. A project manager had been one for years so she put on me. It was my duty. I was the oldest to pay the bills. I was working two full-time jobs and sometimes I was working enough hours to classify the third job as a full-time job. And yes I realize how many hours it was. And yes sometimes I didn't go to sleep for 3 days but it was something that I did and I did it for 6 years. Catch up to the story where I started making a change. I had a not a new car but it was a couple years old, had AC it had heat. It was a small car but it could gas mileage. My mom's car was a 1979 Chrysler LeBaron and this was in the early '90s so it was a few years old. Yasey hadn't worked in years. I don't think I had my car 3 months and she started in on her cars. Too much for her. She needs AC. The heat doesn't work in her car. If she's getting sick driving her car she needs my car and she took it. I didn't know any better supposed to take care of your parents right? So here I am driving her old car that when she gets mad at me she would take it away but she still needed my car there would be times I felt like I didn't have a car. I couldn't drive her car. She took it away or I wasn't allowed to drive it to go places because it was would be wearing out her car but she was driving mine all over the place. That kind of thing I finally put my foot down and I said you know I'm paying for that car but it's time for me to drive it. I want my car and the guilt trip started in you just going to want me to be sick. I'm going to be sick. I can't do. I can't drive my car but I took my car back and she got very mad at me even said well I'll just never drive another one of your cars again. I'm 23 years old and I'm looking at her going and that's supposed to be a punishment but okay and she'll throw that at me several times over her life. Then she'll never drive it. Another one of my cars again. But that was her punishment not mine another thing I had insurance on my car and her car and I got tired of paying for insurance on her car so I told her I said she needed to get a job, get insurance and pay for her own insurance and they go trip started in on that that she raised me she could I get at least pay for her insurance. Well I went ahead and let that slide because it wasn't reading my insurance. I'm very much at all but later on I understood how bad that was and I shouldn't have done it. I should have made her get her on insurance later on. I informed her that I was making enough money. I would be moving out and getting my own place. Her response to that was getting furious and saying well I'll just sell everything and move on the street. That's where you want me to live anyway. Well I didn't get my own place. I did take my car back and I did let her drive it occasionally when the temperature was really hot and I didn't need it or if it was really cold and I didn't need it and it wasn't but in a year later she was moving about 40 miles away and tried to talk me into moving with her but I wouldn't go. I use that as my opportunity to stay and I said well. My job is here. Your job is down there. She did get a job and supposedly part of that pay for that job was having her a house. She didn't pay rent for it. Well she moved down there. I helped remove and I use that as an opportunity to stay in Tulsa and move out and that it was the biggest improvement to my life to that point. My brother and sister are my sister moved with her. My brother had moved out long before that because he was tired of the manipulation too. But she made that my fault years later because of an injury I had. I had to move back in. Basically I broke my hip and the manipulation started again it was different but time it passed and things were different. I was able to get moved out of that and later on and towards the end of her life she moved and with me or it was a nursing home one of the two but it was the last 2 years of her life. I didn't know that's how long I had left with her but that's what it ended up being and I'm glad I got to spend it with her first two three months that she was living with me. She was trying to be manipulative and saying well. You guys just don't like me you doing to do this to me. That and all that's kind of. I told her to stop it and told her what she was doing called her out on it and she actually stopped. So the last 2 years was actually really nice. Wonderful relationship with my mom and the manipulation had ended and for the few people that are going to wonder where my dad was and all this my dad passed away. He wasn't part of any of this. He had been gone for a few years by the time this has started

    I was so blessed to find this discussion and listen carefully. Every single point you made struck my heart. Saying no, finally, was as painful as having a knife to my heart. My husband's prayer, and the mercy and grace of the Lord, helped me one day/one situation at a time. It took many, many years for me to finally see the light, and that is the gift of my daily study and walk with the Lord. Thank you so much, even as a devoted reborn Christian, it is so hard to discern and react to this behavior when it is someone you love.
