    Great information! In a recent experience, I questioned whether he was a narcissist or avoidant. I truly think he is avoidant and not a narcissist, which helped me have empathy as I’ve severed the relationship. The experience has also helped me discover some of my own avoidant coping mechanisms.

    Oh wow this helped me understand that the potential “friend” that I was dealing with was in fact not just avoidant, but had high narcissistic traits. I knew that disengaging from that connection was the right move, but I was questioning if how I disengaged was appropriate. I 100% did the right thing and I will definitely never contact her again!

    8:15 as you said with narcissists happens with avoidants, and I would add that the empathy developed from the partner makes it harder. So both, provide that devastation.

      @grabbelton You aren't wrong. Some people believe intent matters to them, however, the consequences are the same.

      @@tipsfromatherapist yes they are..but i am glad for the intent, it comes from a different place. I feels more Safe, and he is a katalysator for my life, Which i needed but it gets to the point now i only exist for him , so not healthy..

      @grabbelton awareness is a great first step! We all need a purpose in our life. Unhealthy people will impose themselves in that place if we allow it. I wish you well on your journey forward!

    I agree, I was unsure for a while. Through some tests, the narcissist inside her came through all the way.

    Thank you that was very helpfull! Do both narciccist and avoidants generally score lower regarding emotional intelligence or does this not matter? Keep up the good work!

      @maikelh5718 Great question! Yes, they typically have lower emotional intelligence as a byproduct of their respective conditions, though avoidants have the capacity to improve over time with support. Thank you for your encouragement and kind words! I'm so glad you're here!

    Avoidants are narcissists, just diet narcissists
