As I said earlier in the thread, my ex was a narcissist. I've kinda touched on it here and there on this website without going into full detail, and while we're anonymous on here, it was still hard for me to come to terms with how badly she treated me or even express it to others. It was hard, because although the shyt that narcissists do is blatant and obviously disrespectful, as it was mentioned earlier, they will have you questioning your own fukking reality. I started thinking I was the fukked up one. I'm no saint. I wasn't even a saint to her.
Narcissism isn't solely about being selfish. It's how fukked up their actions are when it comes to doing what they want. And they will have everyone else looking at you like you're the crazy one. When you first meet them, they really aren't selfish at all. They pour on the attention and have you thinking, damn I must be the shyt. But as soon as they get what it is that they want from you, they go cold and just start doing evil shyt...that's the sign that you need to bounce. My problem was, I go tit for tat with people at times...you can't go tit for tat with a narcissist because they have no limits to the fukked up shyt that they will do. No limits...and that's why you need to run. Don't play their game...don't matter how pretty she is, how good her p*ssy is, how smart she is, how good a job she has...just bounce. There will be other women.
Sadly they can't be corrected either, their shyt gets worse with age and gets more reinforced. It's a mindstate; a thought process. It's how they work things out in there head. You can't change how someone thinks. You can't...You just have to leave them alone. Which is the worst thing you can do to them. You'll never know it, because you are not around to see how fukked up they are from it...but it fukks them up.
A few good movies on it are The Good Son, Basic Instinct, American Psycho, To Die For or Eat, Pray, Love...which the movie doesn't paint Julia Roberts as one, they play it like she was on some middle age self-discovery shyt, but she was definitely a textbook narcissist.
