They use your empathy, loyalty, honesty, and sense of responsibility against you to keep you obedient, feeling guilty, and doubting yourself.
Well said 👏
Amen
You can’t ever negotiate with a narcissist. They look at everything as a zero sum where they must win or they lose. It’s simply impossible to reason with these types. I stopped trying.
You are so right, I stopped trying too!
When the whistle blower is called a tattletale..
My Narc Ex always seemed keen about me and my life and my family. I know now, that he was just gathering information to use against me. 🍒
He admitted it to me. Said he weaponized my good nature and values and admitted to exploited that. I think hes a psychopath bit atleast he admitted it. Either way it’s a lose lose. He actually said “I thought you were loving and forgiving you’ve changed from the person I thought you were” 😅 yeah abuse will do that to a person.
Compromise is cool as long as it’s coming from both sides.
They weaponize your empathy and love
Narcissistic Personality Disorder is more than childhood wounds, mental illness, psychology, physiology, and psychopathy. NPD is demonic possession. It’s time to acknowledge the spiritual aspect of antisocial and evil personality disorders so we can protect ourselves.
Pls stay in your lane. This is a professional & personal request.
True! I will always tell it!!! I will tell the truth, they Cant handle the truth!!!😂❤🎉 Thanks Dr. Ramani for telling it as Well.❤🎉
Compromising every part of yourself is so self defeating. It’s hard to digest, esp. once you’ve finally departed and begin the journey to clarity and healing. 🕊
Im completely agreed! Thanks for sharing
Dr Ramani, peace and blessings to everyone….
Thanks Doc.!!!! As a truth teller and scapegoat when I said enough the vindictiveness begun !!
I feel like it is a change from implicit trust to trusting behavioral patterns.
Thank you for giving words to the behavior. Narcissists treat relationships like a business deal where they HAVE TO get the bigger, better deal. Compromise does NOT mean self-abandonment.
Sexual coersion is the worst. I was trying to save my marraige. But lost self respect. Get out, stay out. Don’t look back.
Forgiveness is for yourself. So that you don’t let bitterness hold you back and keep you from moving forward. In that sense it’s a strength. Forgiveness is not forgetting. Forgiveness does not mean you let them keep doing it.
“Narcissistic relationships are where trust goes to die” 😢 true. We not only loose trust in them eventually, but we lose more and more trust in ourselves. 😢😢
Love the way you put that. So true. Narcissistic relationships are where trust goes to die. My trust in someone 41 years ago. Only grows worse as time passes.
One of your best. Enduring while being lied to is not being strong. We do this when we are afraid to say the truth, or to lose the relationship. So much pride in keeping a marriage “alive” while compromising deeply held core values because the other person “needs support”.
