Why does a woman stay friends with a narcissistic ex-lover?

well, it depends on the girl, but often times it is because the girl has low self esteem and she feels like she can't do any better or deserves what she has. Other times, she can be forgiving, and just let it go. I would say more times than not, the girl leaves.

What do you say to your friend that is sad?

"Cheer up, or I'll give you something to really cry about!" *PUNCH*

Make sure they know that while you won't pressure them to talk about it, you are there if they want to. Make sure they know you value them.

How do you forget something you did and are not proud of?

  • Every action a human takes they will never forget. The key is to realize that individuals are only human and will make some bad mistakes throughout their lives, but what you should do is consider this a lesson in life and learn from it and never do it again. All humans make many mistakes in their lives, but what counts is they learn from those mistakes. That's part of what life is really about.

Is it possible for a narcissist to be infatuated with someone even if he cannot really love her?

My N was infatuated with me for over a year. He was totally up my rear. It was only when I decided to end things with him cause I thought he was "unstable" that he became UN-infatuated. I do believe that he did love me in his own way but could not take that I broke up with him in the first place. WHen I took him back, he was a jerk to me and left ME for a hideous fat woman. You may want to see Sam's book re: cycles of idealization and devaluing. From what I've read, N's have a phase of thinking that their new source of supply is the best thing since sliced bread.That can appear to be a kind of infatuation. The book really explains it well, and sad to say, you may recognize the syndrome. Hope this helps. Yes, yes, yes. Mine was infatuated with me for 3 weeks. Then he broke up with me and was infatuated with another woman for 3 weeks. Then he broke up with her and returned to being infatuated with me. That relationship lasted about 3 years, with constant fighting and a marriage. Then he started divorce proceedings and got involved with his brother's wife, who was also halfway through a divorce. He was infatuated for about a month and she dumped him. He returned to me and seemed infatuated with me, although hurt about being dumped. We were remarried, since I believed that he was really in love with me. After all, he had returned to me so many times. All the other women must have been just mistakes, right? So that relationship lasted about 3 years, and was relatively peaceful. And then it started again, he was restless. This time he told me outright he was LOOKING for someone to be in love with. He got online, he saw other women, he flirted with his good friend's fiance. I started divorce proceedings this time. He found a woman online and was infatuated for a couple of months. He was able to stretch it because they never saw each other. He moved in with her. That relationship lasted two years. Currently, he is obnoxiously emailing and leaving messages for me, wanting to "talk" to me and saying how he "misses our conversations." Guess what? I knew this day would come. He is once again LOOKING for someone to be infatuated with. It ain't gonna be me this time. But I feel sorry for whoever it will be. She has a hard road ahead of her.

What do you do when your heart has been broken?

When your heart is broken, you must accept that your heart is broken and that your loved one who broke your heart is gone.

Then you must let go of the one who broke your heart, and move on.

There are many other people who can help you during a heartbreak, including your friends and family.

Try to put positive thoughts into your mind, and try to block your heart breaker out of your thoughts. If thinking about your heart breaker will only make you sad, then do not think about him/her.

Try participating in some activities that will help your recover with some of your friends to bring positive memories into your life.

The important thing when your heart is broken is to let go, and move on.

Why are guys so indecisive?

they are so oblivious because they dont see whats so important about a woman's needs. they dont feel as if they are needed. thus the key to oblivious. == Guys don't function with there hearts on their sleeves as women do - they need to see and hear things - they need guidance, shown and explained things, they don't just know things or read between the lines so don't ever assume or expect them to just know or do something.

What should I do if my boyfriend smokes weed and I don't?

You cannot make her choices, but ask her to refrain from it before seeing you and not to bring any along on dates. If she has it in her house, then you should not visit there. That is because you risk an arrest and that may affect your profession in the years to come.

How do people fall in love?

WHEN THEY MEET SOMEONE THAT THEY REALLY LIKE AND WANT TO BE WITH. the moment that people spend time with each other and its kind of unexplainable. Because falling in love means you don't actually know when or how it happens. Its like, you're just walking and you trip all of a sudden and there's no rock or any bumps there, you don't know what made you trip or how you tripped. Love is kind of a mysterious thing.

Why do you stay with a drug addict?

Forget It If They Are On Drugs Now They Will Be When They Die. Do Yourself A Favor. Get To Where You Can Leave, That Is When You Walk Out You Have Already Moved All The Things You need With You. Go And Never Look Back. God Bless This isn't as simple a question to answer because deep feelings are involved. Once you had a relationship with this person, but when people do drugs they turn into a completely different person. You've hung onto the thought that something you might say to him may make him/her seek help, but the truth is that unless he/she wants help then he/she has to hit the bottom of the barrel. By staying with him/her you are enabling this behavior. People who do a lot of drugs will steal from you, beat you if they think you have anything of value and are hiding it from them (they need that fix because they physically hurt) and no one will stand in their way. Suggest he/she go into a proper detox center and if he/she refuses then you are going to have to leave. You did nothing wrong and you aren't letting him/her down. Many drug addicts have to hit complete bottom and some bounce back because they want too and some die. Good luck! There are people out there that can overcome drug addiction. The important thing to remember is... they have to want to. If they offer to go to rehab after they have gone to prison or are backed into a corner, it's not the same. You need to have respect for yourself. I have been with a person for 5 years. I am tired. I feel like I've aged BECAUSE of this person. The stress is almost unbearable and I'm a laid back person. Please, if you're reading this looking for an answer, the answer is no. They drain you financially. They don't care. No matter what they say, they care more about the drugs than they do about you. If they cared more about you (or themselves), they would quit. By leaving them, you are making sure you aren't an enabler and HELPING them. Let them come back after they have RECOVERED. You will be associated with their old way of life if they get clean. Consider this your sign from God, your warning.

What is a regret?

Regret means you are going to wish you havent done something because it will reflect in the future.

What do you do when your ex doesn't want to talk to you because you broke up with him?

You respect his wishes and stop contacting him. Neither one of you is obligated to be friends or to keep in touch. You may feel that you can be friends, but your ex obviously feels that it will easier for him to move on if he has no contact with you.

What do you do when you are angry?

  • Everyone gets angry off and on, but it is what you do with that frustrated energy that counts. You could talk out your frustrations with someone who is not involved in why you are angry; go for a jog or a walk; go bike riding and burn off that excess energy. If you find you lose control of your temper far more than you should then it would be wise to take Anger Management.

How do you know if you threw out your back?

Ohhhhh, you'd know it! You will feel it on the sides below the rib cage and possibly in the hips to legs. If you can't sit up straight, walk straight and have a nagging dull ache you've thrown your back out. Apply heat to it or sit in a hot top with a good full cup of Epsom Salts (bought at a drug store) and in that cup add boiling water so the crystals melt and add to warm bath water. Soak for a good half hour. Epsom Salts is not like regular salt and won't sting; it's good for wounds, aches, pains and sunburns. In four or five days if the aching doesn't go away then please see your doctor and perhaps Chiropractic treatment will help.

How do you end a relationship with a sociopath?

I am a diagnosed sociopath so I answer this question from my own experience.

This is a yes and no sort of question.

With some people I drop them on the dime when they have nothing more to offer to me. That was the entire person of getting ahold of them first. I can look right through people and I love the pleasure of pain and gain.

Be it, their pain helps me gain what I want and I either find their suffering amusing or I don't care. I never have. If you have nothing more for me to take, I leave you behind. You are, and always have been, worthless. A pawn in my game.

Now go to the next part and I have 'broken it off' with this man many a time before... but I always yank him back because it excites me. I enjoy the thrills of our relationship and I love the thrill of him cheating on his girlfriends and I love it even more when they find out and they are broken hearted. I won. I won. I won. He's mine, not yours.

But I only keep him around because he offers something, entertainment. Even if he were to stop talking to me today I would feel a jolt of agitation or sadness for a moment, but not for the reasons a normal person would. Then just like that it is gone. The feeling is there but its so remarkably short lived that it does not effect me.

So yes and no is the answer.

It all depends on the person, and the taste the sociopath has.

If you think you broke your knee how would you tell?

A fracture of the patella (kneecap) is most common with a direct blow, if falling directly on the patella, or rarely with incredibly strong quadriceps contractions when the lower leg is fixed in position.

The most common symptom is pain directly over the patella. In some cases, one can see a divot or dimple in the middle of the patella if the fractured parts are separated from each other. There will be pain when straightening the knee.

An Xray of the knee is most commonly used to diagnose a patellar fracture. If the fractured edges are not separated by more than 3-4 mm, a knee immobilizer can be worn for 2-3 weeks, followed by progressive range of motion exercises. For more displaced fractures (more than 3-4 mm), surgical repair is recommended.

How do you get over feeling like you are a loser because your ex-Narcissist has moved on and doesn't care about you?

1.I know it sounds kind of childish but one of the best ways to get over a breakup is to ignore them. Men Love attention/and woman love it just as much. When you call them or answer their calls you are just letting them know how much you are thinking of them. Which is something you really don't want. Which means being their friend is out of the question. 2. Slowly begin to get rid of all things that remind you of them. Including bedsheets, curtains, anything at all that makes you think of them. If it includes moving come on..Get over it don't move just because of your crush and don't go to the extreme of remodeling a room. It's not like you are rich. keep the most important as a healing process. When you feel it's time get rid of that item. 3. Spoil yourself..use this time to learn more about yourself and learn about your goals and who you really are. 4. Vent your pain in letters, poems, notes, e-mails..etc. 5. What ever you do don't rebound. Going out there and finding the first man and doing w.e with him is the wors idea. It's not going to help you get over your X it's just going to make things worse. 6. enjoy being single.I know it sounds weird but sometimes being single can be a lot less stressful then being with a boy toy. 7. Don't put yourself down. Often when we have been dumped we have a tendency to put ourselves down. Believe me when they say it's me not you it's true. Just because they were too dumb to give you up doesn't mean that you are pathetic. 8. Share you feelings with friends that you can trust in to keep secrets and not to judge you. 9. Keep yourself busy..Take up hobbies and learn how to be independent again. Warning consuming yourself in work is not what i mean. But don't sit at home all the time. Sometimes there's such a thing as thinking way too much. 10. Follow these tips and you are sure to receive a healthy recovery. You got some good advice from the above poster. The thing you need to do is LEARN about the Narcissist and see what makes them tick! By doing so you won't feel like a loser, but know for sure that the Narcissist ALWAYS LOSES! It may be hard for you to realize it at first, but they actually did you a favor by leaving you. It wasn't your choice and it wasn't your time, but now, you have a chance to make a good life for yourself as you move on. Do things that make you feel good--not in comparison or because of others, just a feeling of wellbeing. The basics--eating balanced meals, exercising, spending time with friends (NOT talking about N) and trying new experiences will help you through this time. You won't always feel good at first, but eventually you will get there because when you do the right things, the right things happen. Take heart.

How do you get over infatuation?

Infatuation wears off over time, usually less than a year.

It happens rarely as you get older, so go with the feeling and enjoy yourself to the fullest with these wonderful, strong feelings that you are capable of having.

How can you get your girlfriend back if she refuses to come back?

You will have to "Kiss Ass" because usually it works. Mind set yourself to kiss up to your women like you've never imagined because you must be convincing. Express your willingness to change and abide by her requests, but hopefully you will mean it enough to do it. Also let them know how important they are to you in your life and that you love them and want to show it. Please darling just one more chance to make it right!

She had to have a good reason to kick you out of the house (good for her) so I doubt sucking up is going to count. If you are serious and cleaning up your act then actually ask her out on a date and talk things out. If you aren't serious and you think this is game do her a favor and keep going!

answerI would definitely give her time and space. if she kicked you out it's probably because you did something that severe for her to deem it necessary to kick you out. I would slowly try talking to her, tell her that you are going to talk to her when she is ready to talk about things. that you are willing to do whatever it takes to fix things. but if you do not want to change, don't expect to get back in the house. and if you feel that you can't change let her know don't bother with trying to get back into the house it will only make things worse. think about your relationship as a whole and what escalated to this point to where she had to kick you out. if you whole heartedly want to make things work then you can make it happen. but do note that things on her end may have changed and SHE may not want you back. there are always many sides to situations like these. just take it one day at a time. answerI would definitely start working on it right away if you are serious about your girlfriend, if you give her space, she may find someone else, and you're out of luck, begging to be forgiven will work if she still has patience for you ( cuz feelings are probably still there)

Do people who really love each other find their way back to each other?

not necessarly because experiences and situations change people on the day to day basis and even if people really love each other if they have been separated or have not been around each other for a long time they end up drifting away from the feelings and attractions that made them fall in love with eachother in the first place,however if the two people were not in a relationship but have constant contact with each other and if the previous feelings were intense they might gravitate towards each other all over again.
