    It happened to me they don’t change😢

  • @sushmayen says:

    They don’t rejoice in your good days they are happy when you’re sad. There’s no emotional connection with unempathetic people.

    • @well_weathered says:

      Yeah, I didn’t understand when this person (who took a big part in my daughters healing) became irritated at her joyfully whistling several years down the road.

  • @Greenawareness188 says:

    I’m sorry to hear that . Radical acceptance is painful .

  • @youngblood8540 says:

    I feel sorry for all the people in the very early stages of the “LOVE BOMBING” because today it kicks into high gear.

    • @1FantasticDreamBird says:

      True, my husband came home with not one but two flower arrangements. Now everyone will see how terrific he is…😶

  • @mariehughey5390 says:

    My experience with toxic people is you never want to actually live with them. I also know that it’s the living with them that finally drives that home. Realizing it in time to safely remove yourself and your child(ren) is so important. Underestimating the escalation, underestimating the danger is too often the biggest mistake.

    • @JKDVIPER says:

      Those people love to change the story though right. They’ll go to anyone who will listen. 😁💯

    • @tijeraslack3 says:

      My current situation last year with an intimate relationship. He was hiding money and didn’t want to pay bills. I live on my own and much happier. Also, he just got fired today from his job. I already broke it off with him, so not worried.

    • @victoryamartin9773 says:

      I agree. I did not want to live with him, because I was afraid of him, but I was blackmailed into letting him into my house with legal and financial threats from the County if I did not remove him from my front yard. Now I can’t get him out of my house, even with a restraining order, and if I leave, he’ll take complete control of it so that I’ll never get it back. Besides, I cannot afford to go anywhere else, because I’m still legally required to pay all the utilities for him as long as he stays here.

    • @alexismerrilldragonqueen says:

      ​@victoryamartin9773 why can’t you get a restraining order?

    • @jodycasey6936 says:

      @@JKDVIPERunfortunately yes

  • @sharonkennedycroft says:

    Absolutely! I just went through this three weeks ago. It is a Big thing.

  • @claytonjohn6473 says:

    Its been maybe 5 yrs that I parted ways from a toxic relationship. I check in on your channel from time to time. I liked what you said a couple videos back. The “why” things never seem to go right or everytime in contact with a person, you feel kinda pissed. Why go around or back to something: someone 9/10 it just never ends right. Then why go around it? I bet if 50 survivors of past narcissist relationships. They would agree, RUN

  • @IanM-id8or says:

    My sister continually brutally physically abused me. When I went full no contact, she stalked me for 15 years. I *tried* to get police assistance, but I’m male – the police *do not assist male victims of domestic violence* – they chose to humiliate me instead

    I’m in Australia. I understand that the police in the US are even worse than the useless pigs we have here.

    Radical acceptance was not an option. To stop my extremely violent sister from stalking me I had to *pretend to be dead*
    If she ever figures out that I’m still alive she’ll be at my door again in a second, and, once again, the police will do nothing useful

    • @spacegirl226 says:

      That’s terrible all around — your psycho sister and the lack of help and assistance for men. Society continues to screw men over with no end in sight. It’s unfair and unacceptable.

      I hope you are able to stay safe and keep your sister at a distance.

    • @MunkeyKung says:

      Police: “You’re a male, you don’t need help against a woman, you can defend yourself.”
      Male: Physically defends himself against the physically abusive woman.
      Police: “How dare you!? You’re a male, you can’t hit women! Jail for you sir…”

      Yes… Makes sense…

    • @alexismerrilldragonqueen says:

      Just keep playing dead. Your sister sounds like she had ASPD

    • @jtshawtek says:

      Yep, being a man experiencing a narcissict woman is a nightmare….mostly thanks to people like Dr. Ramani who only attacks men on her channel

    • @valiizajames925 says:

      What…Wow…🙏🏾 My Guy for You!

  • @sparkygump says:

    FYI: Women hit too and men rarely report it.

  • @susannet1980 says:

    I recently removed my (possibly? Probably?) narcissistic partner from my home two weeks ago, and I caved and missed him. He gave me a massive load of guilt and said a lot of mean things. Two days ago. Then he’s been reaching out. Loving an old photo in our text thread. Wishing me a happy Valentine’s Day this morning.

    Is ignoring best? Polite thank you? I’m still confused and still love him. It’s just tough.

    Your channel has been amazing. I round it two days ago and have been binging it. So much resonates. Thank you.

  • @SonOfMorning says:

    I’m a simple man. When Aunty Ramani uploads i click.❤

  • @matthewwozniak9138 says:

    If I could get Pops to walk around in circles calling out to an Ancient Diety, my gaslighting is complete. For me, restraining orders are permanent. We only have two rules here; No self harm and no harm to others.

  • @rechaelandrea says:

    Thank you for posting this well timed message. My ex-husband and father to my three kids is facing sentencing for violating a restraining order that I had to go to court three times to finally get. As a green card holder, he can face deportation with any sentencing with a max over one year. He’s facing a max of 5 years. With the country in such a hot mess, who knows where he’d be sent. I am torn about protecting myself and letting him get his consequences.

    • @MunkeyKung says:

      If it may help… Know that he made the choices in behaving how he did, not you. The consequences from those choices are not on you. You allowing those consequences to happen does not mean you’re the reason he’s facing them, he is. You sacrificing yourself to save him from his own actions just so he can continue to bring chaos to your doorstep is not the answer, nor worth it in any world. It’s not your fault. In fact, you having to deal with these emotions is also his fault. Don’t be afraid to blame him for his actions, that does not make you a bad person. (I’d even argue it would be bad to allow such a person to not face consequences and enabling them to abuse even more people, so you’d be doing the best possible thing by allowing him to face the consequences of his own actions, though I understand it might not feel that way)
      Take care of yourself and your kids first and foremost, he is his own adult person.

    • @rechaelandrea says:

      @MunkeyKung  Thank you. I needed to hear that.

  • @Sehill0011 says:

    Happy Valentine’s Day Dr. Ramani. Thanks for all you do. 🌹 💌💘

  • @abraskabear1170 says:

    I am going through the trenches as we speak. We are 6 weeks into physical separation that came from legal action, but I’ve managed to maintain my home for my son and our pets. It’s been beyond chaotic as I come out of a decade’s long fog and I wouldn’t be trudging through it with my head this high if it weren’t for finding this community online. Your videos are saving me one moment at a time most days for the last couple of months and I cannot even begin to express the gratitude I have for your existence and willingness to share for the sake of those suffering. 💚

  • @annapiotrowska4514 says:

    You helped me to survive Ramani! Thank you! I went through it.

  • @hananhussain says:

    My sister is Hella toxic and we both in the same room/house, best thing is to avoid these ppl, less interaction

  • @TheLove1Makes says:

    Thanks for talking about safety. Drawing aline between patient and therapist. Neighbors. ❤

  • @lynnebucher6537 says:

    In my experience their toxic behavior escalates over time. This week might be property damage but next week it could be your face.

  • @notagain779 says:

    Being afraid that you might lose someone who has severe anger issues could also lose your life. I knew a woman who kept going back to a man who she said was erratic and had trouble controlling his temper. “He really doesn’t mean it” she said. “He’s always sorry later.” she said. “I know he needs me.” she said. He killed her one day, and took his own life, too.
