@relationalalchemy: Two blind spots can keep you trapped in narcissistic relationships: The first is waiting for them to finally see you—to understand your pain, recognize your value, and become capable of the relationship you’ve been fighting for. The second is fearing the relationship you would have to build with yourself if you stopped waiting. Sometimes a half-relationship feels safer than facing the loneliness, grief, and uncertainty on the other side. Freedom begins when you stop making your life dependent on their recognition—and start becoming someone whose own presence is enough to come home to. #NarcissisticAbuse #NarcissisticRelationships #RelationshipHealing #SelfWorth #HealingJourney
my last relationship with a narc, she made me feel so seen in the love bombing stage. what kept me trapped when the abuse started was trying to get her to perceive me correctly again - defending and explaining myself when she intentionally tried to rewrite who I am.

I think this is a great fleshed out explanation of the dynamic. Unfortunately this played out within my marriage. I'm divorced now. 🙃

Oh I love thissss. It’s the shadow of NOT being selfish, getting smacked in our face 😝 Learning the healthy level of “selfish” vs self care, self love, self respect. Thank you so much for this I’m so proud of myself 🥰

To the core, the best advice ever. I have experienced all these for myself, but yes, when struggling being half self.. it really challenging to see ourselves as the whole! Thank you! 🙏

if they can self reflect then they probably aren't narcissistic enough to call a narcissist

My mom was a narc, I attracted them. Same energy different face me trying to resolve the childhood conditioning until I see the root.. it’s self abondonment to be heard, seen, loved ect. The other things (for me) I’ve seen I also projected my own self reflection, accountability, emotional maturity onto others and “they” projected their manipulation ect onto me
