Comments on: Does the Narcissist Really Love You? https://fairytaleshadows.com/does-the-narcissist-really-love-you/ Living Through and Recovering From a Relationship with a Narcissist Sat, 17 Dec 2022 16:06:05 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.7.5 By: Patrick https://fairytaleshadows.com/does-the-narcissist-really-love-you/comment-page-1/#comment-59147 Sat, 17 Dec 2022 16:06:05 +0000 https://fairytaleshadows.com/?p=5856#comment-59147 I read the article and I have to say this is tougher than I ever expected. Realizing I’ve been with a Narcissist and still having her hold on me and still feeling those emotions I had for her. It’s like nothing I’ve ever experienced.
We we’re living together and she wanted to have her alone time before she went to work. She wanted me to get up at 4am and leave the house for at least 90 minutes or more. I went to a Denny’s and stayed till I knew she was leaving for work. Then the times we’d make love and after there was no hugging afterwards. Even when we went to sleep there was never any cuddling or kissing. If I needed to talk about something that bothered me it was always wait till she was ready but that never happened. When she wanted to talk about something it wasn’t talking it was this is the way it is and that’s it. We were together on again off again for 4 years. Then I was in Florida for awhile visiting my Grandchildren and I started dating. She found out and wanted me to break it off, fly home and marry her. I flew home and we went and I bought the marriage license and then bought rings. They had to be sized so we couldn’t take them right away. The next night she stated a conversation about waiting. She wanted to wait to get married. When she called she said she’d marry me right when I got off the plane. Then she backpedaled. When she brought up about waiting it was as if I was taking to a computer generated voice. No emotions at all. It was then I finally realized that she did this because I was dating someone else. There were times she broke up with me and dated others then called me to come back to her. So many times. It wasn’t until reading this article that I finally decided to stop having contact with her and realizing what she is, a Narcissist and a codependent. I was always the giver and she is the taker. I have to say it is so very difficult.
She still has her claws in me and it hurts.
Thanks for the article as it was well written.
