THE NARCISSIST & RELATIONSHIPS

2/3/2018

 

How the Narcissist Imitates Empathy 

WHEN A NARCISSIST PRETENDS TO HAVE EMPATHY
Narcissists run like clock work when it comes to their 'relationships'. Due to the fact that narcissists are desperate to ‘fit in’ and look good to society, they are desperate to emulate what normal people have, proper relationships, empathy, real feelings, and caring for others.  
​
Narcissists are empty inside, and they are well aware of this, making them eternally desperate to try to emulate the feeling of empathy. Unfortunately for the narcissist, they do not have the ability to have real feelings and empathy. Because of this, the Narcissists constant efforts to try to appear like they hold this quality destroys anyone that they use to make themselves appear this way in the process.  The narcissist will use anyone that they have to to get what they want, and this is called 'Narcissistic Supply'.  

I truly honestly believe that narcissists have an expiration date in ‘relationships’. If you pay close enough attention, narcissists do not have real, actual friends that are close to them. When people actually get close to them, they find out their true self, not their false self. Usually, the narcissist has many, many acquaintance, social, surface level friends. This is because these ‘friends’ stay at a close enough distance where they will never actually get to know the narcissist for they truly are. This in turn, makes the narcissist look like they are great, sociable people.
​
In romantic relationships, (to answer your question in detail better)- please note the key word that you mentioned. That key word is SEEM. That’s seriously important. The narcissist always SEEMS to have something better, but they really don’t. They are masters of putting on airs, and making appearances SEEM like they are great, but in all actuality, that relationship will be exactly as disastrous as the relationship the narcissist had before. Once the person in the new relationship realizes how the narcissist really is, that ‘relationship’ will end, and the narcissist will be onto their next prey to give them their narcissistic supply.
Due to the desperation that a narcissist has, they will say and do anything to 'hook' a person into a relationship with them.  Be sure to be cautious if you meet a person that is extremely intense, charming, and seems to be exhibiting mirroring behavior in the beginning with you.  Be sure to look further, and protect yourself to ensure that you are not entering into a relationship with a toxic person.  

Being involved with a narcissist or sociopath is much more dangerous then people realize, especially if it is a relationship that is of the narcissist raising a child.  That child has no outlet or protection from this person, and it is very pertinent that people pay closer attention if something seems 'off' when in a situation with a parent and child, if the child seems to be acting in a strange manner, or the parent is treating the child in an 'off' manner that you can't put your finger on.  If you notice something like this, PAY MORE ATTENTION, and look further into it to ensure that the child isn't in direct danger- hidden abuse is very real.

    THE STORIES

    ​EXPOSING THE TRUTH It takes many adoptees a lifetime to find out the actual truth about their lives before they were adopted.  Not only this, but they also find out that there are half truths, stories have been skewed and worse, there is no information at all.  Due to being lied to their whole lives, having things covered up, there is a conditioning of tending to be afraid of the truth.  It's important to stay strong, and not allow the truth deter you from moving forward, and use it as a tool for the healing process.

    REALIZING IT'S TOXIC One of the hardest things to come to terms with is realizing that your abuser is a toxic person.  When you have been under the same conditioning and the same treatment for a long period of time, especially when it's a consistent influence in your environment, it tends to become the new 'regular'.  A huge step in starting to be in the know is by stepping out of the situation to see it.
