In the view of the narcissist, your point of no contact is a severe injury on his/her ego. It's you saying, "You are not worth my time." There is no energy there for them to feed off of, so they will push to get your narcissistic supply back. It's a predictable cycle. I've been dealing with one for a couple years now. In fact she recently contacted me out of the blue, pleading as the victim, telling me that I was always right...essentially needing comfort from what I could tell.
I didn't hesitate in hanging up the phone. The best part is, I didn't recognize her voice for the first twenty seconds of her begging. When I inquired, "Who is this?" Her crying abruptly stopped and she declared, "You know who this is...." I just told her never to contact me again, gave no reason, and hung up the phone. That...I believe...is a huge narcissistic injury. It shows that I am not dwelling on her at all.
I'm going on a tangent here, but the bottom line is...if they keep popping up, put them back in their place with no contact. It's devastating to them...and most excellent for you, because they can no longer ruin your life.
No contact is one of the most hurtful narcissistic injuries one could inflict.
Some do. They don't want to loose their "blood supply." LEAVE ANYWAY and no contact!!
This is the correct spelling. Narcissists.
Narcissists who not adjusting adequately or appropriately to the environment or situation.
I don't think this kind of behavior is unique to narcissists.
NPD is a serious mental disorder, and like other people with disorders, narcissists can be unpredictable and sometimes dangerous. We suggest keeping any necessary contact extremely low-key, and avoiding them if possible. Some narcissists have other mental disorders, and some are physically dangerous when thwarted. Just get on with your life, and stay away from the ex. It's safer. You will gain nothing by contact, and it could cost you. Narcissists' egos do not bruise easily, so attempting to make them jealous is not likely to have much effect, and could create problems. On the other hand, with narcissists, out of sight is often out of mind. If you are inaccessible, they are likely to find another mirror and ruin their life instead.
Narcissists do NOT fear abandonment - they fear being without "supply" and not in total control.
No. Narcissists can be only children, middle, large families. No correlation.
Sometimes. Narcissists want to be waited on and catered too. Run!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
no.
Not usually
Narcissists will often get depressed when they lack narcississtic supply (some kind of admiration from others.)
