At What Point Did You Finally Accept You Were Dating a Narcissist?
It can take years, but when you “know,” you KNOW.
You will NEVER know unless they are diagnosed, and good luck with that.
And if they are Covert, you best pack a lunch because it will be a long fucking journey. Coverts keep you in a never-ending state of limbo of yea, but no, yea, but no. It’s exhausting.
My therapist Meredith Miller said, do you know she cheated on you? Yes.
Did she manipulate you? Yes.
Has she lied to you? Yes
Did she punch you in the Nuts? Yes.
Did she fuck your best friend? Yes
Then why do you need to know whether she is a narcissist? She’s abusive.
It’s so true. Everyone is putting the “Narcissist” label on many ex’s nowadays. And you know what? Most are probably accurate. We have a pandemic of narcissism in the making with social media and our whole “victim” movement. It’s scary shit. The new generation is raising “narcissism” at an alarming rate.
The moment I realized this was when she showed me time and time again my feelings didn’t matter, but some other strangers swinging dick did. So that’s when I knew. But I still didn’t want to “know” it, although she had shown me repeatedly.
I’m sure she’s laughing at me and thinking, “Hey, you dumb fuck, can’t you take a hint? I don’t care about you, nor anything for that matter. It’s how I treat everyone.”
I swear it’s the most frustrating shit anyone can experience in their lifetime.
It will either make or break you.
And, unfortunately, it is breaking more than making.
