Can the right person make a narc want to change their ways? Is love that powerful? Has anyone seen this or experience it?

He was appealing to my need to feel worthy; special. Imagining that you’re the one person alive who can save this incredible person you’re obsessed with is very, very powerful. The truth is, it feeds our own narcissism. That’s not an easy thing to admit, but it’s true.

No. I’m sorry.

I’m not trying to be harsh or cruel… but if there’s one thing that will help you to start moving on, it will be giving up the idea that the narcissist can change, and that if you just hold on, your love will be the catalyst.

Why are Republican politicians so afraid to oppose Trump?

Meanwhile, the narcissist truly doesn’t give a single fuck about any of them.

I truly understand how hard that is to comprehend - my ex was self-aware and used that self-awareness to make me believe he needed to be rescued from himself and I was the only one who could do it. Nonsense.

Every single person who has truly loved a narcissist believed they were the one exception to the rule. Every single one of us. Do you know why?

Why do a lot of women have a crush on my boyfriend when they know he is in a relationship with me? I am starting to feel insecure too. What should I do?

If you’ve been devalued and discarded, the narcissist is already love-bombing someone else and tailoring their manipulation so this new person believes they’re the one exception to the rule, too.

Think of it this way: nothing about your relationship with the narc was real, because he isn’t capable of being real and, darling, no matter how much you pour, water has no effect on fake flowers.

I truly understand that deep in your soul you just know that you and he are different.

Is The Last of Us Part 2 really as woke as people say it is?

I promise you, most of us have been there. And, I’m not trying to hurt you, but it’s bullshit.

When people talk about the way they love-bombed and mirrored us and wore a mask for us, it isn’t just so we fall in love fast; it’s so that we believe we’re their One, that deep down we connected with them in a way no-one else ever did. And because we think that, we’ll never let them go.

They will never, ever change. Never. Even if you truly feel you saw the “real him” - like glimpses in your peripheral vision… you didn’t. You saw what the narcissist wanted you to see.

What was your most memorable experience catching a fraudulent car seller?

Every single person your narcissist has targeted thinks the exact same thing.

We’ll tolerate the silent treatments and the abuse and the cheating because we believe we know who they are deep down; we see them, and we’ll be the one who never abandons them, and one day they’ll finally realise that and our unconditional love will make them want to change…

Every narcissist has a phone full of exes who are still clinging on, believing that one day, the narcissist will finally understand, and decide to change - for them.

Nintendo Switch 2 sets all-time launch record for hardware in the US, beating PS4 - Video Games Chronicle

Because that’s what the narcissist wanted us to think.

They don’t have the capacity to - their brains physically lack the parts that are responsible for love and empathy. They will never love us, care about us, or want us for anything more than what they can use us for.

Please don’t lose months or years, hoping they’ll change. They won’t.

What happens when your partner doesn't see the value in you and continuously hurts you by searching for something in others knowing it hurts you?

Not a single person on earth can love the narcissism out of someone with NPD. Most therapists aren’t able to even make a dent, and that’s if the narcissist even wants to change, and 99.9999% don’t, because they don’t think they’re the problem. Even if they know they’re different, they think their differences make them superior.
