A life with a narcissist is not a life. It’s survival.
They are pernicious and use small games to lure their victims into their trap.
And all women in love will be more likely to believe a narcissist, thinking that they love them rather than their friends or family.
But what about when things get complicated? How do we get out of such a nightmare?
If you’re not sure whether or not your partner is abusing you, here are some of the warning signs to watch out for.
Perhaps things are even worse than you imagine.
1. He dominates your relationship
If your partner thinks they are the “dominant” in your relationship and if your feelings or ideas are unimportant, chances are you are dating a narcissist.
He always wants to have the final say and you have no say in the important decisions of your life.
He thinks you have less value and treats you accordingly. If you start to perceive even a beginning of behavior going in this direction, leave it without hesitation.
You do not deserve a man who will mistreat you and put you down.
You are unique and special as you are then, never settle for less than what you deserve.
2. He ignores you
Have you ever surprised your guy playing on his phone while you were telling him about your hard day at work?
If the answer is yes, be certain that you have a narcissist in front of you.
It simply doesn’t care about your needs and your feelings. You are of no interest to him and he wants you to become aware of it thanks to his perverse games.
Whatever you do, never consider what it does to be normal. A man who really loves his partner would never treat her that way.
3. You feel like you have no value
If you are involved in a toxic relationship, you will understand it through the behavior of your partner. Any narcissist will abuse you and give no importance to your feelings.
If you feel like you have no value in your relationship, you should go.
Never let love make you suffer, because love has nothing to do with suffering.
Love is the purest and most beautiful thing in the world and you should not feel the opposite. Otherwise, it would make no sense…
4. You cry every day
Living with a narcissist, every day will be sad.
They will apologize for all the horrors they inflict on you and you will end up crying.
They live only to make your life hell and you will have no choice but to suffer in silence.
But stop for a moment and think. Is this life worth it?
Do you really want to raise your children in an atmosphere as toxic as the one you currently live in?
I do not believe. So before things get worse, pack your bags and leave it.
Once you are gone, you will miss him, but that does not mean that you have to accept him back.
5. You are no longer the same
When you’ve been in the grip of a narcissistic man for a long time, you end up getting lost.
We forget what it is to be joyful and how to laugh. Every day spent with him is a day spent with the anguish that he will hurt you.
You don’t want to behave in ways that irritate him, so you do things the way he wants.
And in this whole bazaar, when you look at yourself in a mirror, you no longer recognize yourself.
There is no longer that spark in your eyes, your skin is pale and your eyes are red and swollen due to repeated crying.
Remember, you can’t let such a situation go on forever so, if you still care about your dreams and your life, do yourself a favor and get it out of your life.
6. You’re not as excited as you used to be
Do you remember those days when you jumped everywhere?
Do you remember when you were the loudest person in the room, laughing so hard that people could hear you from outside?
Yes, I know you remember it but unfortunately, you are not like that anymore.
Your life with a toxic man has transformed you into someone else. You are no longer taking care of yourself.
You don’t care if you miss a shower, clean or cook. You have become everything you thought you would never become.
I just hope you realize this and realize that this kind of life is not what you deserve.
7. Your partner scares you
When you are with a narcissist, you become completely dysfunctional.
We are stressed that he can hurt us physically or psychologically.
When he raises his hand towards you, you don’t know if he is about to cuddle or hit you.
And believe me, living with such an amount of stress is anything but normal.
So the next time you feel uncomfortable being with him, talk to him openly and let him know that you’re not one to accept all of this without flinching.
8. You feel like you don’t exist
You feel so bad about yourself that you could cry all day cursing your bad fortune.
If you’ve ever felt like this, you can be sure that the man you call your loved one is the culprit.
He is responsible for all the unpleasant things that you experience.
We feel trapped in such a relationship, thinking that everything is our fault.
But no, it’s not your fault and it never will be.
You were just unlucky enough to come across a rotten one that made your life hell.
But if you want to find what you were before, it is not too late.
With your will of steel and your heart on your hand, you can have everything you want.
9. You feel like going crazy
A narcissist will try to make you pass for a madwoman.
He will try to convince you by passing things off for what they are not.
It is simply one of his little games, which he plays with each of his victims so as to take control over them.
If you notice such a thing, know that it is a major red flag.
Leave it as long as you can because it is not worth the wait.
He is simply an asshole disguised as a “lover” but if you cannot be smarter than him, you could come out of it seriously battered.
10. He’s like, “It’s up to me or nothing”
All narcissists are the same.
They want to have control over others and convince them of their right to do this or that.
If your companion starts to tell you that a thing will be done as he decides or nothing, tell him that it will be done as you wish or that it will then be the exit.
If he is half as smart as he claims, he will understand immediately that he is about to bite the dust.
