      I have a similar situation as you did....after 5.5 years with a narc manager I had FINALLY had enough. I went to the owner of the company and gave them an ultimatum...either you transfer me from her dept or I quit. Well it's been 2 years now and I am sitting in my comfy office narc free....and only a 10 minute drive from my house to boot. The owners not only transferred me to a better location...I literally do not have to have any interaction with the narc. That doesn't stop the narc from sending her flying monkeys or trying to trigger me, but I stay no contact and give zero fucks....life is great now😊

    If you can, No Contact is a must. A true narcissist will never truly be the one who discards. The victim will always be the one who ulrimately do the discard, even if the Narcissist leave first. For them, they leave with the idea that they can "shelf" you and come back anytime they want. If you are in a position to go NO Contact, that's the best position to be in.

      No contact with a narcissist is absolutely impossible until they finally die. After we divorced, I moved 2000 miles away and changed my phone number a few times, but smooth-talker, could sell ice to eskimos, and even told me he had hired someone to "hunt me down and slaughter me like a pig" yep, they simply don't take no for an answer.

      You are not alone. My neighbour narc stalked me mercilessly when I quietly politely backed away after helping her out when she moved in. I had realised how toxic she is. She realised I knew. She desperately tried to get police involved in her manipulations to crush me. She failed. Any sound I made in my home from then she deemed was an attack on her. I couldn't even brush my teeth without a retaliation because I'd used the taps for a whole minute. She would bait and provoke to get a reaction out of me (reactive abuse) so she could engage police and limp around playing the victim. She failed. Enter the smear campaign - a vicious mix of outrageous lies and projection, a formula she had been concocting from the very start.
      The fact that neighbours - who knew me I for six years before she darkened the suburb - believe her crap is mindboggling. The sneers, glares, stares and shunning I have endured has been very corrosive. What can we do about it? Nothing. We just have to continue in our routines with our heads held high and comfort ourselves with the fact that, at the end of the day, the truth will be known to all. And those flying monkeys and other idiots who gobbled up the lies and demonised an innocent person will see what they have done.

    I tolerated nearly 2 years of narcissistic abuse and during our talks, I mentioned he needs to start looking for a place because I cannot stand him anymore. He thought I was joking so he said he'll take a 40 day vacation to let things cool. He even acted all smug and said I shouldn't miss him too much.
    While he was away, I educated the whole family for a few days about narcissistic abuse and all the times he's gotten away with his cruel behaviours.
    One day we settled and we decided to pack all of his belongings, put it into a storage, and left the key to the front desk.
    Sent a simple and short email with no explanations.

    I had a "friend" once back in the 80s & 90s who loved to tell me how I should be running my life while he would sit back and allow his own to fall into chaos. At some point, I ran across the term "passive-aggressive" and realized that was what he was. I gave him every chance to straighten himself up, until one day it was just too much. The next time I saw him, I actually said, "I want you OUT OF MY LIFE." I swear, it took him 2 years to realize I meant it!
    Many years later, I found myself working as a Home Health Aide for 2 older guys, both argumentative control-freaks, who I eventually figured out were NARCISSISTS. I just spent the last year-and-a-half studying narcissism with the immense help of videos by Dr. Les Carter, and along the way exercising an increasing amount of EXCESSIVE self-control on my part. Some days the stress was really getting to me, and their INSANE behavior was really infecting my thoughts. All for naught!
    2 days ago, the older one (the one who's ALWAYS in charge, the younger guy just follows orders to get along) got upset because I refused to come in on my day off, after spending 3 months trying to get that day off. I even told him I have a doctor's appointment on that day! He just quietly-- in a VERY sinister tone of voice-- said, "Then I won't be needing your services anymore."
    It would have been wonderful if I could have had more self-control right at that moment, and simply said, "Okay. BYE!", and left. Instead, it got nasty, and by the time I showed up at my agency office, I was called into a side room to be WRITTEN UP-- for the first time since working in this field for 10 years, 8-1/2 years at this one agency, and 4-1/2 years with these 2 clients! But the lady who LECTURED me on things I already knew (she'd never met me, I think she just started a couple weeks ago), gave me what I felt was good advice, and I was so enthusiastic talking with her, she probably was confused and wondering, "How can THIS guy be a bad-tempered trouble-maker?"
    The gist is... I'M GONE from the narcissists. I didn't have to leave (as I'd long considered and ALMOST quit twice), they gave me the push. Too bad for them. As the office manager-receptionist at my agency said, "They're gonna have a hard time finding someone else to work for them!" Meanwhile, I've got some time off, and am looking forward to a NEW assignment. They've usually found me something within 2-3 weeks.
    The BEST thing the lady at my office said, was that if she had been in charge of the case, she would have gotten me a new client MUCH earlier... and, that I should never be in a position where every single day I'm stressed out worrying about "doing a good job". It gives me hope my relationship with the office may actually IMPROVE after this incident. If I can be in such a GOOD mood under such horrific circumstances, I look forward to how I'll be feeling WITHOUT the stress.

I saw the beginning of him trying to break my self -esteem. I left. He went to my family and friends trying to pressure me to come back to him. There was no way I was going back when he put me out of our apartment at three in the morning. That showed me what I really meant to him. That was it for me.. They are relentless but I decided all his evil effort would come to nothing and I stayed strong. Finally I told him to stop being lazy and go find yourself another woman.

    When he'd get mad/upset/hurt/whatever:
    he'd give me the silent treatment.
    REMINDER TO SELF:
    Reasons for narcissistic silent treatment:
    * Stonewalling
    * Gaslighting
    * Emotional immaturity
    * Lack of interpersonal skill
    * Victimhood
    * Dysregulation
    * Doing to me, what was done to him
    * Terrified of conflict
    * Not knowing any other way
    * Fear/panic/anxiety
    * Desperation
    * Power over
    * Regaining a (false) sense of control
    * Punishment
    EVEN STILL, regardless of the above,
    I miss him and what we had,
    our friendship, our connection:
    WITH EVERY FIBER OF MY BEING.
    But he never really cared about me.
    He used me and discarded me.
    Replaced me so easily.
    Why is she better than me? Why?
    What makes her so much more profoundly better than me?
    Is he her best friend now?
    Or maybe is there even more between them?
    Why couldn't he love me like he loves her?
    Is there something wrong with me?
    Is she just so much better?
    He's replaced me with another.
    In an instant: just like that.
    HE REPLACED ME.
    HE SHATTERED MY HEART.
    HE RAPED MY SOUL.
    I'm all alone and suffering in anguish,
    and they are living happily ever after together.
    The PTSD and the loneliness and the grief that he's given me...
    Makes it so that I can't breathe.
    I drowned. I suffocate. I die inside.
    I'm in hell with no escape.
    NO ESCAPE.
    I need him.
    I loved him.
    He raped my soul:
    brutally viciously violently maliciously.
    Every night: nightmares.
    Every day: panic attacks.
    I want to die.
    Every morning I wake up in despair,
    desperately praying to die.
    I can no longer bear the pain.
    I could die from the pain of missing my best friend.
    He betrayed and abandoned me, discarded me like garbage.
    My mind can't fathom, my heart can't comprehend.
    I live in perpetual panic and terror and loneliness and longing...
    I'm so alone in the world. I die of fear.
    I'm so fucking traumatized and terrorized and terrified.
    I'm dying inside. My soul is raped.
    He's given me severe PTSD. Severe! Severe! Severe!
    How and when will I ever heal?
    In 5 days, it'll be exactly 5 months...
    God, as I walk through this hell and heartache and grief,
    I pray you guide and direct and hold me...
    I won't be stuck in hell anymore. Enough is enough!!!
    It's time to be free: in Jesus's name!
    I’m giving my life to Jesus! 100%!

    Thank God I was never married to the toxic and vindictive sociopath I spent eight years with, nor were there children involved...I can't imagine what that would have entailed.
    My abuser had painted himself into a very tiny corner...a "suicide" attempt for attention went very wrong, and he ended up disabled and permanently unable to speak. Two years later, I entered his life and treated him like a king. I finally put all of the puzzle pieces together and I left. He was blindsided, and his rage was palpable, but his power was severely curtailed by the fact that that he lived an hour from me, had no car, no license, no friends, no family, and no voice. He tried to make trouble for me, but was thwarted at every turn.
    It's been two years, and I still feel his hatred...it was exacerbated by the fact that I did everything wrong when I left. I called him out on EVERYTHING, and my reactive abuse was directly proportionate to what he'd put me through. I wouldn't advise that course of action to anyone, but just knowing that he was stuck, alone and voiceless, with all of the massive perks I'd added to his life stripped away, made me feel good in a way I'm not necessarily proud of.
    With time, I've been able to see that he's sick in a way that can never be fixed, and I know now how futile my endless attempts to get him to understand my feelings were when I was in his life.
    I saw a picture of him recently, and I think he may have gone through a narcisstic collapse...gaunt, bad teeth, but still the leering grin for the camera that is supposed to pass as an engaging get-to-know-me smile, as his dead eyes glitter.
    I seriously think there is a demonic component here, but at the least, he's a malignant narcissist/sociopath/ Machiavellian sadist.
    After I left, with him knowing that many years ago, I'd had an abortion that I later regretted, he sent me a Happy Mother's Day message.
    As with so many of these sickos, he used every bit of information he had obtained as a weapon.
    So glad
    I got away...what I've read in so many of your stories is just a nightmare. The court system needs to be more educated on the tactics they employ.
    When I was looking into getting a no-contact order, I was told to call the local police department and let them know.
    This is a very small town, and I'd had plenty of interactions with the police department by that time, but I didn't recognize the officer who answered the phone. It turned out he was relatively new to the department, but when I told him who I was calling about, he immediately told me "He's a narcissist and a sociopath"...it was incredibly validating. He went on to tell me that in desperation, my ex had taken to calling 9-1-1, claiming he'd fallen, and then would grope any female EMTs who showed up on the call. He'd also taken to walking to the nearby downtown area and would fake-fall in an effort to meet sympathetic women. He also convinced local missionaries that he wanted to find Jesus, and they visited him for months until they figured out that he bats for the other team. 👿
    I couldn't believe I'd wasted so much of my life on this sick predator. I'll never be the same, but I count my blessings every single day.

    My personal view on this; after the first three (two too many) threats, hit the road and get a new start in your life.
    As a youngster I was abused with all household cores including being a labourer in our yard. Punishment was almost every day, until I uttered the final blow. But as it continued, I decided, enough is enough. Get out of this before someone is going to become a victim of my rage, and I have to regret it. On a daily basis it did not take me too long to, carry my entire wardrobe content of clothes from home. No enquiry was ever levelled toward me as to where those clothing items were. My accommodation was organised by myself, so I had somewhere to go to and I had already arranged employment in the future city. When they finally heard about my "silent absence" I was already far away from my ex-home. No bragging rights, but I proved my point, don't push me too far, There is a future elsewhere and one does not have to continually complain should you not want to do something for yourself;
    Nobody else is going to do it for you. (Hit the road Jack)

She discovered that he had a long term girlfriend who was also married and filed for divorce at the age of 34. He tried to make her think that she would not survive without him.

    The serious dangers of these malignant narcissist is not to be underrated!! Thank you so much for your encouraging message!
    I broke up with one of these types and was lucky enough to be able to move out of the apartments that we lived in together and move 25 mi away... He doesn't drive thank you Lord for that
    ....😂 He did manage to steal some items that I had left in the storage unit there, by lying to others that I had called him and said that he could have it.... When in fact I had blocked him..... Anyhow four months later and he got ahold of a friend of mine that still lives in those old apartments saying that he wanted to give me my stuff back and for me to call him...., Which I stupidly did..... Which open the door that should have never been opened. It was only open for a few days thank you very much, because I slammed it shut today by blocking him again...... After putting up with crazy-making that boggles the mind...... And literally does scare me as well. I think he purposely stole my stuff so that he would have a way to hook me back in and try to destroy me..... I am much stronger than that though.... He has way underestimated me.....🤬

    The advice she gave at the end is good sound advice. Narcissists do need to believe they've won or they'll never leave you alone. When I got my narcissist out of my life I did so in the worst way possible and put myself in a bad situation because of it. I would urge everyone to talke this lady's advise and let your narcissists have their victories. Because the alternative is that you're ganna have a helluvu fight on your hands and narcissists do not accept defeat period. Enlightened Target, I wish I would've come across your advise back in January because it would've saved me from making a serious mistake that can't be undone. She's no longer in my life. But I paid a heavy price and put myself in a very dangerous position. And there's not a day that goes by that I wish I would've made a different choice.

    This is spot on my 14year relationship with my soon to be ex-husband. He always says things like "I've allowed you to treat me this way or that way", when he plays the victim. When he's playing the "hero" he uses terms like "I'm the ONLY ONE that can do this or that". I've been called every name in the book and he gets off on public embarrassment, I cant even count the amount of times I've been called ungrateful. He feels everyone is beneath him. So pitiful he can't even manage his own life. And he definitely viewed me as a possession as well as our 4 year old child. If we didn't have her I could go no contact so fast. He moved out on us and my son 3 years ago and has the nerve to say he didn't abandon us...what a joke. He thinks he knows everything about every subject but can't even complete a task. Everything was my fault and when I changed my locks and the passwords to the security camera's he threatened to take me to court and felt like he's entitled to it all because of our child. I finally got sick of years worth of empty promises, emotional abuse, defensiveness, deflection, fake reality, delusional thinking, gaslighting, and rage, and I filed for divorce and now I've "ambushed him" when he got served the papers and I've "backstabbed him", oh and of course he began to remind me of all the things he's done for me....hopefully his new supply will keep him far away from us, I just feel terrible for our little one.

    This is spot on. I've been out of a narcissistic relationship for 3 years. It was a good review. I left. He never admitted his infidelity, and DARVOed me. (look it up). That's when I realized this relationship was so toxic, it was unworkable. Also saw a good Ted Talk on Betrayal, the Loss No one is talking about. Remember to Right yourself from your capsized relationship. The narcissist loves to poke holes in your boat and watch you sink.

    17 years together.
    Married 11
    Sooooo, my plan is to be out by my next anniversary February 2024 God willing
    Hard as it is, with so much to do before then

    As the saying goes... "The happiest people I know are evaluating and improving their lives. The unhappy people are usually evaluating and judging others". Empathy is difficult to teach a person with narcissistic traits, and impossible to teach to a sociopath. Your only prayer and hope is to go no contact whenever possible.

Sister sent her neighbor (met him 3x) over, Unannounced to tell me "I know U don't have any friends, UR here all alone and I want to help U." THEN he, his wife came over, unannounced to say same again. Brought a "gift" (old, regifted stale "food") to tell me the same, again. THEN they followed up w/a Xmas card w/same. U MUST go No Contact w/EVERYONE or "visits" "calls" of "concern" follow.

I went no contact after he discarded me after a 3 year situationship. He’s hoovered me multiple times, but he’s stopped for the past year. My ex husband was even worse. I’m now single for 2years, still healing, and have learned that most of my relationships have been w narcs. My mother and sisters, all narcs….I never understood until God opened my eyes.

    My narc sis has controlled and manipulated my sisters and mother since childhood. We are now in our 60s. I went No Contact just before my son was diagnosed with cancer. She was joyous. She forebade any of them to contact me or support me in anyway. I watched my son die a little each day with NO comfort from any of them. I was suicidal, which made her even more gleeful. These people ARE NOT human. They are a bottomless pit of hatred so visceral there is no limit to their depravity.

If i gave him a cake a week he would complain I never give him cakes while eating one. Its very hard to express to people how crazy and divorced from reality the behavior is. The advice to get them the narc to end the rel and feel like a winner is brilliant. You speak my language. Thank you Jill and I cross my fingers you thrive going forward.
