I try with honesty and kindness, and they completely “fake fall for me”… and I am a chaste female. I know what my armor is now? I don’t want to turn into one, EVER.

    It is a lonely road as a survivor. When you're surrounded by narcissistic elders, that too in a country like India where parents are put on a pedestal and worshipped, it is very easy to become an outcaste. You're seen as the crazy one even when you're speaking the truth. It takes immense courage to walk on this solitary path. Energy slumps an weak moments are bound to happen at some point or the other, but we must get up, dust ourselves and keep walking the path of 'truth'.

      I held back on the empathy when he talked about his ex's because you only know a story when you know both sides. I was not going to just believe anything he said. Besides, what he was saying didn't add up. Also, it's really none of my business and saw that he was violating her privacy by telling me certain things. I didn't think it was right and recognized he had a big mouth and would do the same to me if it didn't work out. I decided to not get involved in gossip and put up a boundary and told him not to talk to me about his ex's at all. He wouldn't stop because he was trying to make me jealous. I ended it and now he's running his big mouth about me...using me to make his new girlfriends jealous. Now I've got crazy women stalking me. These narcs are pathological liars. I see that they use the last woman to make the new one jealous. They use people even if your not around anymore. It's a strategy they use and the new one needs to not fall for it or let them manipulate you like that... he's a liar... it's to make you jealous and insecure!

    Perfectly expressed, Danish, and keenly important advice for all to abide by! As the narc is the controller of the narrative, the master imitator, manipulator and ringleader of all whom he decides will play as his minions, it is imperative that we maintain a high level of vigilance in recognizing behaviors and language that reveal and unmask the narc. This is key to our survival, though it's damned unjust that we must do all the work and make the sacrifices to expose these freaks. If more people were aware of narc abuse, we could produce a collective clown show or perhaps hold "reveal parties" (much like those that are done to announce the sex of unborn babies) in communities where the narc has committed the most damage. A few years ago, an ex-wife of a narcissistic celebrity chef in NYC hired a small plane flying a banner that read "Bobby Flay is a serial liar and cheater." Millions read the message live that day and his professional reputation sank to new lows for a long time after. Still our priority as survivors and thrivers is protecting ourselves, our peace, joy, and anonymity. Thank u, Danish! How may we design this episode as a lecture or lesson plan for teachers and parents? ❤

Respecting the fact that I am not a professional and coming from what I have learned and applying it to my experiences that’s where I’m at on this right now. The main clue that is repeating is invalidation and devaluation while working through traumatic events or while expressing feeling about things. I have gotten really fast at seeing them for what they are in the past couple years. It’s very difficult to have your gaurd up in a space that we are told is to be universally safe.
    I do all I can to avoid contact being that I was raised in a narcissistic family system, I can hold my ground for a while then just the right amount of stimulus and I can go into fawning and other not so great states of mind and it can take me weeks and or months pending on the duration of the situation to get myself back in line.

      If you become reliant on the narcissist to meet your emotional needs you will find it difficult to end the relationship. The remedy is to meet your own emotional needs. Then you will be able to walk away when they become disrespectful. You won't NEED them to make you feel validated or loved because you are already getting this from yourself. Learn how to do this so you are able to walk away when they don't treat you right. NO second chances. They either respect you or they don't. 🤷 ❤

      Let people earn your trust. How do they treat others ? Do they need to control them ? Are they angry when they can't have things their way ? Do not rely on others to meet your emotional needs for acceptance and validation. Learn how to give it to yourself. Then you are not trapped by your own unmet needs. You will not be reliant on them so it will be easier to walk away if they disrespect you. ❤️

      ​@@leanne123We all need acceptance and validation from others for the simple reason that we're social beings, a social species. We all need to feel accepted and valued. The trick is not to let that need drive one's behaviour, not to let it blind us.

    A narcissist is a very dangerous creature. It can also be so insidious. As someone who has survived such a situation. Be careful, take your time, listen to your guts. Do you really feel safe and happy with this person. Is the person a pleasure to be with that you don't notice the time going by.? Is the person encouraging, grateful, appreciative, truthful. Put them on the casting chair. Observe, interview them, learn them. Take your time, never be rushed.

    good points, and also there are people who don't quite add up, but to whom it never becomes clear who they are...- mostly though, 80 years of experience has shown me that a truly solid good person, whom you can rely on to be consistently honorable and good over time, actually good, that you can feel in your bones, is going to be very very rare - I've known two people like that in my life, and I consider myself really blessed and very fortunate to have know them and had the good fortune to have them in my life. you can ask yourself the question, "who would I trust my life with? - is there, even one, that you would do so without reservations? if there is, then you can compare other people you know with these true people, and get a better idea of whether you are sure who they are :)

Don't allow yourself to be too desperate or lonely. A narcissist is very good at the trade.

    I developed a technique for reading people. Probably developed it out of necessity when living at home. I can feel other people's energy and sometimes even their emotions. And since I've hitchhiked for decades, I learned to read people very quickly. I know in a split second of looking in the window whether I would get in a car with someone or not. It just takes practice. Read everyone you meet, and in time, see how accurate you are. Trust your instincts!
    It does seem there are more narcs in the world, or many aren't faking normal so much anymore! I can't believe how many I work with.

      You can't give people the "benefit of the doubt". I was taught to do so and it only kept me in disrespectful relationships. To protect yourself you must never depend on others to fulfill your emotional needs. If you are relying on them then you are going to stay in disrespectful relationships. If they show you disrespect ONCE then you have to be able to walk away. NO second chances with your heart. They either respect you at all times or they don't. You are not their mother or father. You don't need to train them how to treat others with respect.

They say to trust that gut feeling. Suddenly I did not want to continue seeing him but in those days our parent made us get married and they made me marry him. I never saw a single happy day after the marriage not one. Thank God he left and I slowly came back to life after being drained of all my energy by him.

They consider it a challenge etc. What worked for me: encouraging people to talk by pretending you find things they say funny. And pretending you agree with their views.
