In this episode, we will talk about what happens when the narcissist knows you figured everything out, and what we can expect when they show their true colors. I will share a bit of my story with my ex-husband, and what happened when I confirmed my suspicions about him, and I let him know that I knew everything I needed to know.
What You Will Learn In This Episode:
- How narcissists diminish the pain of feeling worthless
- The three ways of ending a relationship with a narcissist
- Why I stayed for years in my abusive marriage
- What happened when I told my ex-husband I had everything figured out about him
Although narcissists appear to be confident and secure, they are precisely the opposite. When we let them know we are aware of their game, we become a shining spotlight on their worthiness wounds. They have two options, to look themselves in the mirror acknowledging the damage they've done, or smear and try to diminish us. Unfortunately, they tend to choose the latter option.
