Questions About Relationships From Nons

"I guess I'm playing with fire and inevitably the devaluation will happen again but"

It's not just devaluation or even heartbreak you have to worry about. The situation you're pining for is far more dangerous than you imagine. A narcissist can and will infiltrate and corrupt or destroy every single aspect of your life. Your friends and family, your job, your home, your health - ALL are at risk.

Just get away.

Perhaps this has already been stated, but here goes:

When it has been established that the significant other is a narc the following applies:

1) There is NO chance that the relationship can be successful. The narc thrives on the fuel you provide, and it inevitably gets stale. That forces the narc to apply devaluation to you, to squeeze more fuel out of you. This is inevitable. The relationship will NEVER be what you want it to be, excepting short, intermittent and ultimately unrewarding periods. You can't make it work, not now, not tomorrow, never, ever and ever. No. Never. Never. Never. No. No. No. No. It can't. Never. Are you getting this? Never. Never. Nonononononononononononono. Never.

2) The only feasible course of action is no-contact. Move out, throw away the key, leave stuff and property behind if required. Get off ALL social media for at least six months. Blocking is NOT enough. Close ALL social media accounts.

That's it.
