Exposing someone for something that they cannot recognize or understand does no good for either of you in the long run. The thing you need--an apology, change of behavior, etc.--probably will not materialize and you will still be frustrated. Move forward to better times. True narcissists never apologize, in fact whatever lie or devious act you may catch them in will ultimately be someone elses, or your fault. The best way to deal with a narcissist is to doument and have absolute proof of previous lies. To a narcissist, you and everyone else don't know the difference. Consequentally they tend to pull the same things over and over. If you have documented proof of a narcissists lies then when they lie again you can put it in their face like a dog that has pooed on the carpet. Actually this tactic is not really effective with a dog or a narcissist even though any dog has far more conscience than a narcissist. However, narcissists HATE to be confronted with their past fabrications due to an internal self loathing. Keep in mind, "you don't know the difference" When you confront them with the truth they cannot / will never admit it, and how they react will be based on several factors. The key factor will be whom is present, how public the humiliation is and how truly sick they are. Borderline narcissists may derail, just make sure you confront them in public... The truth about themselves is what they fear and hate most.

As a mother of a son, I can tell you that you kill her with kindness and set limits. Smile when you see her and ask her opinion ( you don't have to follow it, but ask). Be her friend. She is narcissistic our of loneliness. Fill that lonliness and the negative behaviors go away. For example go shopping for an hour and have lunch with MIL then you get the evening alone with your husband. She might have some good features if you look. Pushing her away will cause her to pull harder. In the end you loose your sanity and peace. So make a little room for her and she will stay in the little room. good luck joymaker.

Just because this person is a narcissist doesn't make then much different than anyone else cheating with your spouse and you should be more concerned about your spouse cheating. By all means sit down with the narcissists spouse and tell the whole story, but be sure you have absolute proof before doing so. Don't be surprised if the narcissist's spouse becomes angry and is denial, but, in time the spouse will become to believe it.

Will a narcissist act in a rage when you expose all his lies?

It is quite likely. The best way to deal with a narcissist (if you must) is to do so as little as possible, and without crossing them. Your best shot is to exclude them from your life. If you expose them - be sure you are not doing it out of revenge. And be ready for the rage OH YES ! Months after my N and I broke up, he started harassing me. I caught him cyber stalking me. He claims it was his current gf doing it. Anyway, I exposed all his lies and he went into a rage and threatened to ruin my life and post naked pics he had of me on the internet. It got really ugly. He just couldn't handle that I had him all figured out.
