I see two possible reasons. First, he will almost certainly use his mother as a source of information about you. That way, he can keep tabs on your life so that he will be able to keep you in reserve as a source of narcissistic supply "in a pinch." He will also be able to confirm for himself just how miserable and helpless you are without him, which is a passive source of NS for him. Second--and this depends upon his relationship with his mother--he might be delegating to you as a parting assignment the task of providing companionship for his mother, which he is too busy and important to be bothered with. Kudos for the previous post! I believe that says it all. My N did this to me after we split. He actually sent for his mother to come stay with us- after I had already kicked him out!!!- I do like his mother very much. She told me that my N's father was just like him. (The apple doesn't fall far from the tree). It was very awkward when she arrived on my doorstep and I had to explain to her that I had broken up with her son. I hope all goes well for you! Please don't fall for the N's tricks(and there are SO many).

If a narcissist devalued you and toldyou to get off your high horse and called you a loser after you exposed you to his childrens mother will he maybe contact you again?

You'd better hope not. Cut him off! Run! No contact.


Can the narcissist ever become himself and he is a narcissist and so is his mother he seems to look to her for acceptance can he change if she accepts him?

I don't think so. How can change occur in narcissist whose mother is a narcissist as well, even if she accepts him? The very sickness comes from that lack of emotional support given by the mother at the most crucial time, birth. My mother in law has damaged my husband so much that because he is a product of his environment, he had dished out his madness upon me and his children. Sadly, I am the one who had the mental breakdown and has suffered so much. Is there really help for a narcissist?

How can you make the son understand that his mother is a narcissist?

Unless she has been labeled a narcissist by a psychiatrist/psychologist then you have no right to discuss her as being one. You didn't mention how old your son is, but whether very young or in his teens you have no right to form your opinions on him. To him she is his mother and always will be. If you want to sever all ties with your son then just keep up the name-calling against his mother.


I don't believe narcissist were abused But rather indulged?

My departed husband was a narcissist. His father was narcissistic as well, a verbally and physically abusive alcoholic. I believe that the narcissistic role model and abuse contributed to my husband's being a narcissist. I think that some narcissistic people were not abused but indulged, told that they were special and different...a sense of entitlement. My mother was also a narcissist, and her mother was non functioning so Mom was neglected, a different type of abuse. They rob your soul if you let them. Often people who are addicted to alcohol and/or drugs tend to be narcisstic. I attend Al-Anon and now have a joy and peace I never knew before, understanding this complicated personality, and how to not be involved for you cannot change another person. Learn why you are with such complicated people to begin with!

My girldfriend's mother is a narcissist she will be fine and then whenever she doesnt get what she wants she forbids the girl to see me...how do i beat this can I?

Nope. Parents come with girls until they move out. Be a charming gentleman, and everything will work out just fine. Start by never calling her mom a narcissist again.


What happens to the narcissist that has completely ruined his reputation and burnt all his bridges yet has no means to relocate?

Don't worry a narcissist always lands on his/her feet like a cat! They are sly, selfish, can usually charm the gold out of a person's teeth and never miss a beat for any opportunity. According to the narcissistic mind they have all the power and never run out of ideas and certainly don't feel they have burned all their bridges. Psychologists do believe that there is a love/hate relationship between a male narcissist and his mother (who was probably narcissistic or cruel as well.) Whether the narcissist hates his/her mother they will always run back and hate themselves for doing so. If dear old mother isn't there then they continue to harass an ex-girlfriend or ex-wife.
