I noticed the signs in 2018, he left January 2019, filed for divorce April 2019, & it finalized August 2020. I lost everything, including my now eight year old daughter… First I was hypersexual, & got burned several times. I wasn’t ready, & I was chum for the sharks. Now I’ve been celebid since February, 6 months now… I checked almost every box on this list… I’m not ready to date, & he left 2 1/2 years ago… I hope I recover one day & find REAL love, it will be the first time in my life. I still believe in love, & I know I am worthy of love!

After surviving my narcissist partner for 2years, I got back in a healthy relationship through online therapy. Good news is that we are getting married in March, and i can recommend anyone to this therapist if you want 😀

Good advice! I think it’s true that if we don’t learn a lesson, then the universe sends us the same lesson, until we learn.

So if we can learn the signs to spot a narcissist, plus how to deal with them, then we’re ready.

Thanks for a useful perspective on this tricky subject. I’m a bit over a year away from my abusive relationship and have been progressively working to heal my damaged psyche. I still struggle with the idea of “readiness.” I’m pretty sure I won’t go for another narcissist. I already detected and shooed one away. I’m not worried about falling into that trap again. Instead, I dated a great woman for several months, but that didn’t work out because I wasn’t able to fully commit. I couldn’t make myself vulnerable like that. A year out, I’m doing so much better, but I have doubts that I’ll ever be able to really love someone again. From your perspective, at least, I don’t seem to be ready now. Trust seems to be the biggest obstacle.

4 years after calling it quits with the dreaded N….i read one very telling piece that put things together in my “heart”……I’m not looking for my soulmate…..i’m looking for my soul…………..mate……..and thats the difference….not to pair up to make a broken half whole as some things say but to find your own “wholeness”,,,,,then there is no lack to be filled…..no perceived lack to be found by a nefarious person…..just oneself beyond the “i am this”….connected….namaste
