Are narcissists constantly reinventing their lives and changing from venture to venture?

Answer 1

From what I have seen and lived through, YES. It seems they can paint over ugly events which have they have done in order to make themselves the victim & then garner sympathy for their so called, "pain". Its a weird and can feel like you are embracing the shell of a human being. It is almost gross in some ways how they seem to be testing you to see if you can tell if they are lying. If you sense the observation and outright lies, I am not sure if calling them out is the best thing to do. I called the N out and his eyes dried up. It was so strange. He acted as if I asked him to tie his shoe. His response was to stop the lie and carry his business. Looking back I can see this person was mentally ill. If I am truly honest with myself, there was a part of me that WANTED to believe his lies so we could just be together. He pretended to be very spiritual and even read me The Bible every day. It was surreal. And FAKE. After finding out from his ex (who it turns out he lied to and said it hadn't worked between he and I and started shmoozing her) they had slept together after 6 mo. of trying to woo me. I am proud I didn't fall for his guise and cut him cold. Sad to say I still think of what might of been.. had he been normal! Hahhaha, the best thing is to know they are "supreme" actors, manipulators to the core and even their own families are creeped out by them (his mom told me he was, "not a good person" and his dad said, "my son is a loser!"). He even said his little brother was choked out by another brother, when it turned out it was he who had been the violent bully. Sick to the core, a vain imposter of a person and 5th rate want to be body builder. The thing is, he will never be happy. He is an unstable person who will only age and try to fight the nature of time. And he will fail, because we all know life does not sustain conciet. Look at Dorian Gray :) Am I resentful he wasted my time? Yes. Am I glad I ran away when I did from what his dad said he was? Yes? Do I still love him? Sadly, yes. Will I get over him. MOST ASSUREDLY YES! And so will anyone who is wrapped up in the garbage an N swamps them in. Keep swimming...your almost to shore :) Love & God Bless!
