Why is The Fact a Narcissists Never Loved You so Painful?
The initial meeting was euphoric. You knew something was off but it felt too good.
They knew your every insecurity and seemed to sweep them under the carpet as they didn’t exist.
You felt “something” like you had never felt in your life with this person. You remind yourself to straighten up! That you are acting crazy. Take it slow or you will run this person off!
You try and pull back a little and they pounce harder. The attention, oh god the attention. The more and more comfortable you are with them the more vulnerable you become. Your guard begins to loosen as they study “who you are” and who they are determined to become, YOU.
They begin the mirroring process.
Everything you like they like. You surprise them, they come back with a bigger surprise. They’ve never felt like this with anyone else but you! And god damn it, you can feel it!
This is fate you tell yourself. If this one doesn’t work out you are done with dating! You are tired of all the games! This person is to perfect for you to pass up. You laugh, have great sex, they are a great listener you have almost all the same interest. Everything is surreal.
