If he fears what I supposedly represent as a woman (intimacy, engulfment, his mother, whatever) why didn't he just keep to himself? I didn't approach him. And he STILL seems anxious when he's around me. Why is he attracted to and avoidant towards me? He lingers and changes his schedule to match mine, but hasn't approached me since I stopped talking to him (there is no confusion as to why I stopped talking to him). ...

Ok, so a while ago i posted about my narc ex who disapeared after i asked to look at his phone and he refused, said i had planned it all etc to make him look bad, but wouldnt actually say it was over. I asked his dad to ask him if he wanted to be with me and he didnt like having to give an answer but said no not really. A day or two ...

Hi

I'm new here. Can someone tell me when you are abandoned by your ex (the narc), is that the same as the mean section of the mean sweet cycle. i.e. is he likely to come back if it's the cycle it would suggest yes, but I'm not sure once the abandonment has occurred.

Does anyone know?

Thanks.

A person that hates themselves, but still thinks they're better than everyone else and has a high opinion of themselves and is silently judging all those around them?

Or nah?

It is my opinion that you don't really "love" in the empathetic sense. So what is love to you? A lot of narcissists claim to love in their own way. What IS that way for you? It is an individual experience for sure, but how do you express love? And, what makes you feel in love with someone? What do other people do to make you conclude that THEY are in love with you? Like ...

As much as you can answer please

2. Went to high school with Narc # 2. Quiet and unassuming, excaptain of foot ball team. never married, no kids,never lived with anyone. Yes sadly we are 40 and 41. I have been married kids etc.

I would really like to understand what Narcissist actually feel when they cheat on their wifes/ long term relationship partners... I can estimate all the motives behind that, the thrill, the supply, feeling attractive powerful and in total control but does he ever gets any remorse after that? Feeling for his wife or maybe even regretting it?
Another questions to a narcisst... did you ever loved any of your long term partners or at least ...

I hope posting in the right forum, I apologize if I'm not and feel free to move this post to the appropriate forum.

In March, a man (who is in the entertainment business) began pursuing me. Right off the bat, I could sense that there was something wrong. He was 15 years older than me, he would come around me and laugh so loud that it would startle me and make my skin crawl. One ...

1) is it possible a narc pulls back because he hates the idea of you having the spotlight? When he asked me what my goal was for a future event & I told him, he went on & on about it that day, thdn stopped talking to me. He couldn't achieve that goal (not sure I could) & I know he hates anything good happening to me.

2) how do you take away their power? ...
