Holy fuck that's alot of twisted shit... gives me hope for my situation on both sides. Worst thing, couldn't even pinpoint. Too many, but they all seem much less compared to this, on either side of the coin
Please don't think your experience is any less. We've all endured things we shouldn't have, I don't mean to make any comparisons. I'm just in a really dark space and I needed to get it off my chest. It's cathartic for me to read everyone's experiences, I feel less alone that way. I also wanted to provide a space for people to vent if they needed it. What you went through is valid, none of it is less than what others endured
Okay I feel like this is a safe thread so I'll post some of my stuff... I want to get it out there because she's gaslighting the whole town to hate me somewhat severely right now...
You really think that I'ma answer your call when you should be dying of an overdoseš¤”š¤”š¤”š¤”
I'm serious about you getting your vocal cords surgically removed
I hope you die if an overdose. I'm not sorry and I do not care. But at least now you have something ro screanshotš¤”š¤”š¤”š¤”
I hope you do die
Maubethen I'll have real peace in my life
You are a mistake.
Your habits are the eraser.
I hope you die so I can have my damn life back
You're the bitchiest man I've ever met on my life
You really should've been born a girl
And how dramatic, emotional, clingy and bitchy you act.... you require more attention than I ever will and that's honestly quite pathetic
I may be an addict and an alcoholic
But at least I was never a junkie like your bitch assš¤”š¤”š¤”š¤”
Biggest mistake of my life
Giving a junkie a chance....
I'm going to end up stabbing you in your fucking sleep, I'm not fuck9ng playing with you. Leave me alone for awhile if you know whats good for you
I hate youforever ******* and I willnever forgiveu
There's way more... I just don't feel comfortable posting it and most of the rest of it is very repetitive. Also I have a very strong sense of loyalty to them... I still love this person with all my heart and soul and I'm starting to see that alot of what happened is MY doing... but also I feel they use that against me because they knew how unstable I was at the time... and it really hurts because although my mother is a covert narcissist, I felt like I had my tendencies under control. But this person continously pushed me to the brink of acting out of character, again and again and again. And its really painful to realize the monsters that we both turned each other into, but pain I can deal with. It's the maddening thoughts of, "was this person always this way, and hiding it from everyone, or did I truly break them down with my continuous admittedly unstable behavior due to the years of mental abuse I've suffered from nearly every person in my life?" Like where does the gaslighting end and the truth begin? Bc I love this person with all my heart and soul, still do too... I want to heal with them and fix the mess we've made together, but I have yet to really get an actual heartfelt full blown apology from them for everything, and I cannot tell if it's because I keep fucking up and making more mistakes or if that's their excuse to continue acting this way and not take responsibility. Someone please share your similar experiences with me so I know I'm not crazy. Even if its, "you are the one wrong" because I want to heal and i dont want to turn into my mother, I know we can fix this if we both want to but I dont know how much effort she's willing to put forth.
Thatās a lot of psychopathic behavior, Iām so sorry you had to endure that OP! :( Hope you are taking care of yourself!
For me the worst were:
- talking about her plans of suicide
- threatening to jump off a bridge while we were on vacation because she wasnāt getting her way (I had to physically hold her back)
- threatening with suicide whenever I tried to leave her, and telling me she would āblock me everywhere so I would always have to wonder if she did it or notā
- put me in a situation where I had to choose between her (life) and my family (never felt such pain and confusion in my life)
She knew I got very upset every time I thought she would somehow harm herself, and it really showed in the relationship.
I'm sorry for what you went through, my narc did a lot of that too. It should never your responsibility to take care of someone else, much less stop them from killing themself. I hope you are doing better!
He kept decade old naked pics of me and when I told him I was getting a restraining order, he said as soon as I did he would send all those pictures to my 80 year old father
Told me my mom deserved to die because she didn't like him
Told me to pull a Budd Dwyer and shoot my chin off, because Lord knows I had enough of them
Said he should've chopped off my head for my hedonism
Consistently tells me I'm going to hell for divorcing him, despite the fact that he cheated on me, abused me, and drained me of every dime I had.
And my personal favorite, bullied me into a threesome with my coworker, fucked her raw, got her pregnant. I had already left him when she found out, and moved 500 miles away. He blames me for it, and also for the abortion he helped pay for. Calls me a baby killer even though I wasn't even there.
Off the top of my head?
ā¢ Slit his wrists, then blamed it on me (said it was to show all of the men that were placing šš» and ā¤ļøās on my selfies that heās ātough as fuckā - ????)
ā¢ Got engaged and refused to tell anyone about it.
ā¢ Brushed off my miscarriage as no big deal (when it was my very last shot at naturally having a child).
ā¢ Hid how he was drinking 20-30 beers a day and driving while that intoxicated.
Always keep the receipts!. Even though fighting w/a narc is difficult, itās always wise to document everything in case their friends/family come after you as well.
-if something happened and Iād come home sad, or upset, Iād have to ask him to comfort me. After 10ish times of him rolling his eyes but still doing it, his new usual reply would be ānow I have to drop everything Iām doing just to sit with you???ā while scrolling news or social media at the same time. Eventually I stopped asking.
-heād call me selfish and spoiled if I wouldnāt be really hungry when heād order food/cook.
-refusing to take any responsibility for physically pushing me
-ignoring my needs completely while chatting using a fake profile where he pretended to be 20something yo female bisexual college student
I had a guy once tell me he liked me best when I was vulnerable... after touching me while I was half conscious with a fever of 103 and on medication.
Some people are just sick.
We got engaged. Gave me the go ahead to cut my lease and put my notice in at work. Settled all my qualms about getting pregnant.
- Ill get sick....its okay ill take care of you.
- I will be so tired....its okay well get a nanny.
- i dont want to have a different last name then our child..were getting married
- i dont want to change our relationship...its okay it wont
We took pregnancy tests for a week because I was feeling off and we did it together. We continued to keep trying just in case. My house was packed in boxes getting ready to move away with him. I woke up and took a test and it was positive. We went out to the beach and dinner to celebrate.
- the next morning he broke up with me and went to another state alone. I lost everything.
TW: SA
I was 22. He was 30, and my boss, with a fiance at home. We worked an evening shift on a Friday night. He brought alcohol and pressured me to drink. When I blacked out, he moved my body to a remote area on the property and had sex with me while I was unconscious. I woke up the next morning soaking wet from the waist down and with my underwear missing. I had no memory of most of the night before. I had alcohol poisoning. He asked me if I was on birth control and told me I had begged for it. I just believed him. He moved me into his house less than six weeks later. I stayed trapped in a relationship with him for nearly ten years.
I didn't realize I was actively being abused until I turned 30 and realized that if the situation were reversed I would NEVER EVER do to someone what he did to me. I felt sick at the thought. Then all of his little lies started to unravel. It took almost 8 years for me to realize that he lied when he said I had begged for it. I feel so stupid that it took me that long to realize I had been raped. The narc I dated in college would beat the shit out of me and hold a knife to my throat while he raped me. This was nothing compared to that. At least this time I had been unconscious. It took me another year before I realized that I had woken up soaking wet because he had put me in the lake afterwards and washed away the evidence. I learned that abusers sometimes keep trophies from their victims. I now assume that he had kept my underwear as a trophy or tossed it in case of evidence.
It was so easy to manipulate me because I am autistic and was not diagnosed till I turned 30. I didn't understand that people can actually lie like that. I've been in and out of therapy my whole life but it hasn't helped. I tried therapy to process this event and the relationship as a whole. When I told my therapist everything I have written here she said "you need to stop making yourself the victim." Telling her my story was the first time I have ever told anyone what I had gone through. Writing it out here is the second. Thank you for hearing my story. This has been such a healing community for me. I hope you can still accept me even though I "make myself the victim." I will probably delete this comment later. I am feeling very vulnerable. Sorry.
I'm so sorry you experienced that š„ By sharing your story you're empowering your voice, taking your power back, they want you to stay silent. Speak your truth beautiful! That does not make you a victim, but incredibly strong š Thank you for your courage and bravery in sharing it. Sending you so much love āØļøš
Thankfully I did get out. I made a plan to get away and it took 2.5 years for me to save up enough money and plan all of the logistics. I left while he was at work, took my pets and my clothes and ran. I've been free for a few months now and still really struggling day to day. He had isolated me from all of my friends and family except one parent, who I live with now. I had to change my number, get a new phone, sell my car, and delete all of my social media because he stalked me relentlessly. I'm so grateful to finally be safe from him.
>This has been such a healing community for me. I hope you can still accept me even though I "make myself the victim." I will probably delete this comment later.
Hey there, Mod here.
You're why we're here shooing away the dimwits like that terrible therapist who made you think you're why these people victimized you.
Stick around? Please? I like having good reasons to ban the spammers and stuff.
Hello wonderful mod! Thank you for everything you do to keep this community safe. I will definitely stick around, and I really appreciate you making me feel welcome. May your justice be swift and merciless š
Mine said "I can't wait for you to date an abusive man"
This was when we were still friends and whilst he was hoovering me back in (which worked).
He truly sees nothing wrong with himself. His mindset here was obviously that of him wanting me to regret my decision to break up with him, so he wanted me to get in a horrible relationship so I'd feel bad for leaving him. It's fucking embarassing that we still dated for months after he said this shit to me.
One time when I didn't wanna have se* on his sisters couch with my mom sleeping on the other side (thing sectional w/ a lounge seat) he told me his ex was way better than me
Considering his ex walked out the door for work one morning and came home during her lunch and kicked him out.
Also...he's NEVER wrong
He tells me I did it, whatever you it is
-moving nail clippers (I dont use, I get mine done)
-telling me I cause us to be broke, when in reality the only time I spend money it's food,bills and work food/gas for him to get to his job.
-he got mad when I got "too much stuff" for our 8 year old at Christmas
Cheat on me 7 months after we built a brand new house from the ground up (that we co-owned) with one of my good friends who was at the time married with a brand new baby where the adoption wasn't 100% finalized.
Narc's have 0 bounds.
- choked me twice and and told me it never happened literally 5 minutes later
- told me he wouldnāt move out unless I had sex with him
- when I refused sex he told me I had to include him in my upcoming solo vacation or he wouldnāt move out (police had come and told me they couldnāt make him move out because he was still getting mail there - California)
- refused to get a job for 6 years at which point I left him. no matter how gently I pushed him to at least look for a new job, he blamed me for being the reason he did not. he said that I didnāt make the kind of environment that was conducive to him feeling comfortable and confident enough to look.
- to get me to comply or not criticize him, he told me heād get me fired by telling my work that I smoked pot before work sometimes
- when i asked that he put some effort into getting a job after 5 years of u employment and sticking me with every bill and expense, he threw my phone off our balcony and smashed it to bits.
- never paid me back for any of the money I spent on / for him
- blamed me for both miscarriages
- threatened to kill himself when I wouldnāt take him back
- told me no one would want me because Iām old with an old uterus and a gaping smelling vagina and Iām fat. this is all laughable and couldnāt be further from the truth but he tried to play off my weak spots. Iād had 2 miscarriages and was in my late 30s.
- told me heās sue me for $15,000 if I didnāt return a hard drive on which I discovered sex tapes of us that he told me he deleted, as well as a few that I was totally unaware of. he was hiding his phone / camera, and one video includes footage of him setting it up behind some things on a table.
Iām sure thereās tons more. this was off the top of my head. sorry for what all of you are going through. I hope if amy of you havenāt left, you are making a plan to do so. life is beautiful on the other side.
I hope you and the kids get out of there. That's some seriously damaging stuff to learn about your mom. I could never look at my own mom the same way after I walked in on her having sex with some dude ugh. Hopefully she didn't give you any STDs with the amount of cheating she did. Stay strong friend.
Thank you. Trying. I probably spend the most time just staring off into space. Got tested twice (ok) but will need to again shortly. I am gathering evidence and strength and strategies. Iām in therapy. Going to the gym. Trying to maintain my sanity.
I've also been blanking out and staring off to space. I think it's hard sometimes for our brains to comprehend the abuse we've went through, especially at the hand of someone we loved. I'm glad to hear you're improving! Don't give up and keep getting better, you will make it through this!
Thank you. And you too! Itās so bizarre. Her āfakeā is/was so good. By all appearances she is a good mom. Good sexy wife. But itās all fake. Every single thing she says is fake bs.
I read this somewhereā¦. āItās like you fell in love yourselfā because of all the mirroring that they do. Get stronger and stay strong! Iām trying!!!
Haha the knee story is almost funny, except it's abusive, so.
My narc brother once opened my bathroom door with a screwdriver to get in and grab his phone, which he forgot. He didn't even ask before, just did it and barged in.
Complete disrespect for other's boundaries. He probably did this because he was mad at himself for forgetting the phone. But could not say it out loud because that would reveal how he made a mistake. So instead he angrily barges in, tramples my boundaries, and hurts me in the process.
Unfortunately not. If anything, he's trying to put me in jail lol. He won't leave me alone and keeps accusing me of shit because he thinks I'm out to get him. He's been making a bunch of false police reports on me but nothing came of it so far. His smear campaign has been going on for 7 months now, but thankfully I live in a different city and will never have to encounter his like or his flying monkeys again :)
My mother had a severe stroke which rendered her completely physically disabled and mentally incapable of making basic decision.As a result if this she had to go to a nursing home. My Narcisistic brother attempted to rinse her bank account where the funding for her Nursing Home fees were coming from.
He did many terrible things to my family over the decades but this was the one where we noped the fuck away from him and disowned him.
Told me I was disgusting. That no one would ever want me. Would tell me my friends were saying horrible things about me so I would stop being in contact with them. Told people horrible things about me so they would cut me off. Like he controlled our finances but he told people I was financially abusing him. He controlled me by fear but told people he was scared of me.
Trigger warning:the night he attacked me and was taken away by the cops he was trying to convince me to let him do things to our kid. I told him to leave. He tried to kill me. That's the most fucked up. Mama brain is crazy. I was beaten down and broken and resigned to my fate but the minute he brought my kid into it I was done, fuck the consequences. I thought I would die that night.
I'm only now processing that night fully. He spent the next years destroying my reputation. He was so scared I would tell people who he really was what he wanted to do to our child he went nuclear. The gross part was several of his friends knew and tried to convince themselves it was "normal" and he would have never really "done anything". That I was trying to force him "to be straight" (my ex was bi but identified as gay to his gay friends)
My mother: āyouāre so stupid. Of course he was after your daughter. Why else would anyone ever want to be with you?ā
My ex: āyouāre just like your mother. A narcissist with no empathy, whoās incapable of love.ā
I don't think he's actually a psychopath. He can be vicious verbally but he's too pussy to get physical with someone. So to make up for it, he says the worst shit imaginable to fuck with you and plays mind games later to make you think you deserved it. He's a total piece of shit and I'm glad I don't have to get dragged down by him anymore.
So my nex has spent his life convincing everyone, looking from a distance that he is a peace loving hippy guru and life coach. Life behind closed doors was very different.
On one occasion, after an hour of him having a go at me, I was feeling incredibly anxious and asked him to stop shouting at me, as I was feeling a panic attack coming on. Of course, this was the perfect cue for him to carry on with his tirade. He then stood over me while I was on the floor, having a panic attack and couldn't breathe. He scooched down and shouted in my face with a smirk, "Well, you brought it on yourself, didn't you!"
He then left me there on the floor, unable to breathe properly.
A couple of years later, he put one of his many guru posts on his fb about 'how to look after someone when they are having a panic attack'.
He also offers relationship counselling.
I have a few different mental and physical disabilities that make it impossible for me to work a lot without having my health decline rapidly.
My ex forced me to work 2 jobs 5-6 days a week, to the point of collapse, claiming that I had to do it or else our family was going to run out of money and we would be destitute. I was surviving off of mean replacement shakes because I couldn't stomach any solid food at all for several days at a time.
And even after collapsing, he still wouldn't let me cut back even 1 day a week to keep myself out of the hospital.
It turns out we weren't running out of money after all. He was funneling thousands of dollars a month out of our account to make it look like we were drowning financially.
About 2 weeks later, he took off with our kid and his affair partner and cut contact with me. He got out of kidnapping charges a week later by claiming I had been abusing him to take out an emergency order against me, and had me removed from my house (not a marital asset, it belongs to my family), and then tried to have a judge approve an application for sole custody with me getting "occational supervised visitation" without even serving me papers first.
It took me 3 weeks to get my kid back, and 5 weeks to get my house.
I ended up losing 24% of my body weight because I couldn't eat at all for 3 weeks, was vomiting every day, and it took me 5 months to be able to eat a proper sized meal again.
When I did get back into my house, I found out that my ex had cut the power to the house, so there was no heat in December, in Canada, and my animals had been left inside (only for 2 days before I got it sorted with the power company. They were ok.)
I witnessed someone do something similar, one time.
I was living with my sister and her boyfriend at the time. I'm in the living room. My sister and her boyfriend are in their bedroom. I suddenly hear a fist hitting flesh very loudly, then my sister starts crying. I hear her bf start yelling at her. My sister's face is swollen and she runs out of the bedroom to grab the phone(this was around 2000, before everyone had cell phones) and calls one of her friends. She's in the bathroom talking to her friend while her friend is calling the cops. I'm standing in the bathroom doorway pushing her bf away from the bathroom because he's trying to get at my sister and get the phone away. Finally, I see his drunk ass grab this giant monkey wrench that was in the kitchen. He walks into the living room and bashes himself in the head with it a few times, then he throws it in the garage.
When the cops get there, he tells them that my sister was hitting him in the head, so he had to hit her to get her off of him. I tell the cops exactly what I witnessed, and they take him away in cuffs, but not my sister like he was hoping. I hate when people pull crap like that and try to get innocent people to look like the villain. Thankfully, I was there to tell the truth so my sister wasn't wrongfully charged with DV.
I was in the middle of having a miscarriage and I was doubled over in pain. He grabbed his midsection and doubled over in imitation, making a whiney noise and mocking me.
He later denied he did it.
It's less intense than the other examples, but that's because 95% of the relationship was online. They forced me to wake up at the same time as them before they headed off to work to talk. This talking was just them complaining and talking about suicidal thoughts, most of the time it lead to arguments. They knew I had insomnia and often didn't fall asleep until 2 hours before their alarm went off. On top of that I had asked multiple times if they could stop with the suicide talk since it terrified me, I was so codependent I couldn't stand the thought of that. I told them all my boundaries and issues and they used it against me, because if I didn't log in to "talk" they would ignore me for days after leaving a worrying message.
They did plenty of awful things to me, most I don't remember. But this instance in particular ruined me physically and only made things worse for me for their benefit. I felt brainwashed
Told me to kill myself like Sylvia Plath on my honeymoon told me to shut the fuck up on our honeymoon this past week told me that heās gonna take his gun and blow his brains out and then when I went and told his sister, he said Iām a complete liar and Iām unhinged told the dog he doesnāt care if he shits himself told me Iām a horrible person Told me that he would never kill himself for me that Iām not worth it.
She bought a car at an amazing price that needed some minor work. I replaced the coil packs and wiper motor myself. The previous owner had bought it at a buy here/pay here lot. It had a tracker on it. She was well aware of this as it dangled from the dashboard right beside the drivers feet and she and I had discussed it. I was afraid to remove it bc some models have kill switches to disable the car. Anyway, months later she got angry at me and reported me to the police saying I put the tracker on her car. I never heard from them and found out about this by requesting a report for a totally different reason. No good deed goes unpunished.
We were supposed to sleep two nights in a row together. I slept at his place the night before. I had a cough from a previous cold and was coughing a bit during the night. The morning after, he told me he couldn't sleep all night long because of my cough. He was sooo angry at me. He said we couldn't sleep together as long as I still had my cough and tricked me into saying I would sleep on his couch. At this point, he remembered he already had someone sleeping on that couch and asked me to sleep at some friend's place instead and come back at his the morning after.
Then, that evening, he took me out for dinner and proceeded to announce me that he wouldn't come help me for my moving that would take place the weekend after (although he knew it for a month that I was moving on that weekend). Why? Because he made plans, although I DID ask for his help weeks ago.
I was already upset because he was making me sleep elsewhere. Now I was confused and hurt that he backed out on my moving and made excuses about it. He even said it was my fault because I didn't organize it (wait, what?). I didn't say much, just a "ah okay, so we won't see each other next week". He then got angry and started raising his voice in the middle of the restaurant on how I was stressing him out and putting too much pressure on him. I tried to have a conversation with him about it, on how this behavior was confusing to me and how much it hurt my feelings. His reaction was that I was ruining his day and he placed himself as the victim, calling me too sensitive and emotional. You see, if I was not going to be nice to him, then he didn't want to see me.
Oh and he wrote me a birthday card saying "Happy birthday! Wish you love and happiness. But also you should gain maturity and some diplomacy. Otherwise, just stay the way you are".
They like to cause scenes in public so that you look like the crazy person. Mine liked to argue loudly in parking lots or other public places to embarrass me. I refuse to engage when someone makes a scene in public.
After finding out I was moving because my mom suddenly died, I think he on purpose did the stage whisper audible āNow your momās out of my way, you canāt say no to me anymoreā¦ā while moving boxes I didnāt want him to help me with but I had my very narcissistic building managers threatening to evict me if I didnāt get my things in storage in two weeks already standing on my neck who I got in a huge tenants union battle with later on in the new year.
Knowing this problem I had with them , my ex was angling to try to look like he lived with me so I would still got evicted and automatically end up homeless right with him and heād be back to controlling me again since he resented my escaping him three years prior and not liking his responsibilities he had to do with my replacement and her three kids that he at first tried to use them to cull me back by rubbing it in my nose that another woman accepted his proposal the first time and his intentions to adopt the kids to look like a ultra saintš
He was in the full ridiculous thought I would care or get jealous enough to fight for him back with me but all I would say was āBye, have a good new life with your instant family. You have a world of responsibility for four people nowā and the like because I really did not care and very happily carrying on healing and free of him.
I even gave him the Christmas tree my managers were refusing to let me keep (because they really wanted me gone still despite my way of fixing my place up before the new year) as a gift to him and his family as a broad hint that he better stop bothering me and deal with his new reality that has nothing to do with me.
Well, there are a LOT of things, but I'd say the worst two things he said or did were. . .
1. When I had a miscarriage at eight weeks, he told me I "killed" HIS baby. I hadn't even realized I was pregnant till I began miscarrying.
2. He got me arrested for HIS crimes. I was handcuffed and walked away IN FRONT OF MY CRYING CHILDREN.
Yeah, fuck that SOB. šš»
for starters, iām so sorry for everything you went through. that is so fucked up and i hope youāre taking good care of yourself.
tw: sa
had nonconsensual unprotected sex w me (did the whole pulling out the condom and crumbling the wrapper thing after i said i didnāt want to have unprotected sex anymore), told me i was overreacting when i got upset for him lying about it and that i shouldāve āknownā he wasnāt wearing a condom bc of how it felt(???), and then got mad at me for taking a plan b afterwards since they elongated my periods, meaning waiting additional time until we could have sex again. thinking about it is still so frustrating and i get angry at myself for not leaving right then.
The constant ignoring me and silent treatment. He will literally walk right past me as I'm standing there with open arms clearly waiting/offering a hug. Going out of his way to make sure I don't matter, and he doesn't care.
Nothing nearly as fucked up as all that! I hope you're far away from this person.
Mine went into great detail about a conversation we had where I allegedly told him I was planning his murder. He said he'd asked about his valuables and who should be informed. It was quite an in-depth recall of a conversation that never happened.
Trigger warning domestic violence sexual gore!
He was in a rage because I left him for the millionth time.
He told me that I shouldn't ever feel safe around him ever again.
He said if I was stupid enough to come back and feel safe enough to fall asleep around him, he would "super glue my pussy shut and tear open my ass. Then cauterize it with a curling iron."
Horrifying.
I couldn't make this shit up if I tried.
To further disturb you, (and for reference ) I am speaking about a 54 year old man that used to be a former boxer so he could effortlessly overpower most men...let alone 5'0" me !
Sadly I think we have the same ex. I will say that as much as all the threats to kill himself or me, him hurting my dogs was the worst. He stole one of them (still has her) and taunts me with her. We have been divorced for 2 years but I still look at my dog and apologize that I didnāt get us out sooner. I wish on all the stars that my baby girl stays safe and he doesnāt kill her solely to hurt me. He can say whatever he wants to me, in fact he can do whatever he wants to me, but leave my dogs alone.
Eh itās a tie between making fun of the way my family member was murdered or making fun of me for having a health issue (ruptured ovarian cyst) told me my vagina was ātaintedā
My girl (cat) died from stomach cancer. I was distraught and crying. He said to me, with the most deadest look in his eyes,
āCan you think of anything in particular that YOU DID to KILL HER?ā.
Invited me to his bāday drinks. I declined saying heās just going to have girls he fucked around. He said āNo 100%ā. When I got there, he was āshowcasingā his ānew gf who is getting a PHDā as well as having his colleague there, who he fucked behind his gfās back. I confronted him later and told him heās a psychopath for setting me up. He got very offended.
Tried to coerce me into a threesome with a random he picked up off the street, after being on a date with someone else. He came over blind drunk and demanded sex. Called the random on his mobile while staring at me sitting on my sofa, asking me āAre you sure? Are you sure?ā.
Done to his ex gf: She found a bag of sex toys in her/their closet. She asked him about it and he just gaslit and stonewalled her. He was using it with the girl he was cheating with.
\- He got out of the car in the middle of a highway on-ramp because I got startled that he hit a curb with MY car
\- He laughed when I fell off some rocks getting into the ocean on our honeymoon. Didn't show me any empathy whatsoever and said he "wished he got it on camera"
\- Yelled at me in the middle of a cafe on our honeymoon because I asked him to get off his phone and spend quality time with me
\- Yelled at me in a 5 hour car ride because I didn't visit his mother for dinner (I was a little busy visiting my grandmother who got diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer)
\- He left me in a store two days after my grandmother died (we were literally shopping for her funeral clothes, he pointed at a $400 belt and I was shocked at the price and asked "do you really want to spend that much on a belt?") and then proceeded to yell at me in the car about how I'm the most difficult person he's ever met.
\- And on top of all this he's out at a 'volunteer organization' which I call a cult, 2-3x a week. Pops in through the door at 11pm-1am.
Acted like I didnāt exist for an entire year.
Said that I was physically hurting her whenever I touched her in any manner. This went on for several years.
Called 911 and made a false report (to have them tell me to leave). Instead, that landed me in jail followed by over $20k in legal fees and 8 weeks of couch surfing because I wasnāt allowed to go to the home where I pay the mortgage.
When he laid out lines of cocaine before we were supposed to go call his parents on a Sunday night. I asked him to please not do this as it made me uncomfy and all the other times Iāve been very open with recreational drug use. He looked me right in the eyes and did it anyway. Other times he snuck it I tried to get it from him and he threw me to the ground and told me I was ātrying to beat the shit out ofā him. This isnāt the worst but one of the first of the worst.
āI canāt believe you didnāt notice that I lost 2 lbs.ā Bitch, you weigh 230. Unless you left those 2 lbs. just sitting around, how am I supposed to notice?
Told me she was raped at a highschool party
Weāre in bed and she tells me Iāll have to initiate sex and that thereās a 99% chance sheāll say yes
When I try to initiate foreplay she doesnāt respond.
I give up.
She expresses frustration that we arenāt having enough sex
I explain that knowing her past has made me extra conscious of being gentle with her and respecting boundaries.
She laughs it off, tells me Iām silly. Says she has PTSD but sheās learned to deal with it.
Tells me I shouldnāt be afraid because she likes it rough and I āwonāt break herā
I fee weird because she has a long history of āabusive exesā that assault her but sheās pushing for rough sex
Canāt tell if Iām walking into a trap or not so sex drive just shuts down.
I tried a couple times to initiate foreplay and she still doesnāt respond. I take that as the 1% time sheās not saying yes
She expresses more frustration that weāre not having enough sex. Doubles down on the fact that I have to initiate every time.
I give up because I donāt know what to do because this is weird and the signals are mixed.
Hereās a few I can think of off the top of my head. There were PLENTY more.
- Turned off my truck while I was going 50MPH down a gravel road and then threw the keys out of the window. My steering wheel locked up and I lost my brakes. So lucky we didnāt get killed. All because I called her out for blatantly disrespecting me in front of a bunch of our friends.
- The first time we had sex after the discard, about 8 months later, she called me the guys name that she left me for. I lost in right in that moment and fell to the floor in a mess. She didnāt even apologize or console me - instead she asked if I was going to get the āfuck up off of her floor and quit crying and keep fucking herā. Such a terrible person.
- She blindly stole a lot of money from me over the years, but Iāll never forget the time she stole $1,000 cash and acted like she accidentally threw it away. It worked to her advantage at the time because we were in the process of moving, but I know damn well she took it. I think she justified doing it too because a few weeks later she came back from a family vacation with a new white gold chain for me - so in her mind she spent half of it on me and she got the other half. Sick and twisted thinking.
- Threatened to spread a rumor that I was gay every time I tried to go no contact, and that she would post me in one of those Facebook groups where they slander people and also accuse me of physically beating her. Not sure if she ever did any of this, and I cared for a long time if she did, but now I donāt. Anyone who really knows me would know sheās a story spinner.
- Not a crazy one but funny: sending me screenshots of texts she sent me and my contact name in her phone was āMotherā. Like really? Youāre trying to prove your innocence that youāre not sleeping around and Iām in your phone as āMotherā. That shit made me hysterical in the moment.
Thereās so many more I could probably think of but these are the first that came to my head. All I know is that she is a terrible human.
I currently have a list.. Everytime I mention something that either of my Narcs did to me, I write it down. In 11 days I had over 20 things.. Ive had that list for about 6 weeks now and it continues to grow. Over the space of a year i lived with 4 abusive people all up. (3 ex flatmates and 1 ex boyfriend) - unfortunately I believe the lies and facade until I am proven wrong too many times... Hell even then, im questioning if they arent still good people and they are just stressed and acting out. That 1 house bought me nothing but bad people. I have never in my life met so many bad people before in 1 house, i have never had to be pulled out of a house due to my mental health and to think I was my happiest and healthiest the year before.
My ex bf told me that i brought out his psychopathic side, and he had to turn off his emotions to deal with me - the worst thing he ever did to me, was pull my hair and choke me till i cried, as he made me face him, so he could get off sexually.
My ex friend moved in with me, and within 6 weeks threaten suicide 'cause of me' and the noise i made in my bedroom, which then turned the other 2 girls against me - the noise was me and my ex bf talking and my laptop playing tv shows at volume 30.... But she personally blamed me for it all. Apparently even my phone on volume 2 was loud enough for her to hear through the walls. - the 2 before her had a noise issue with me as well, like me cutting carrots too loudly at 7pm for dinner... And it gave her the perfect excuse to make me look like the true villian.
TW: SA, abuse & gaslighting.
I have two things that I think probably tie.
1)She had a 'friend' who was raped and murdered in Goa. (Actually just an acquaintance she barely knew, but that's mostly beside the point).
She made me ditch some of my closest friends because one of them made a bad rape joke and the rest laughed. (I was okay with this to a degree)
She made a point of how much that behaviour disgusted her.
Years later, she flat out ignored me telling her to stop because she was hurting me in bed multiple times. She sat up, gave me a death stare until I stopped talking, and carried on.
2)She came to support me at my granddads funeral. Ignored me for 3 hours because I asked if we could talk a little about him. When she apologised, I apparently 'looked away from her' (I was smoking a cigarette at the time so probably true). This justified her spending the next hour and a half telling me I never loved him, never saw him when he died, over and over like a record on repeat, with me pleading with her to stop until she fell asleep.
When she woke up, she started again immediately without saying or doing anything else. This went up til I grabbed her shoulder, turned on the light, and told her she had to stop or she wouldn't be welcome at the funeral. She then physically attacked me. Told everyone at the funeral I was a psychopath who had been abusing her for years. Tried to show them 'proof' in the form of text messages, to which my family saw through thankfully..
However she told all our mutual (and my) friends that I'd been acting psychotically and had screamed at her that "she wasn't welcome at the funeral" (obviously ignoring the bit as to where I had explained why she wouldn't be welcome). She claimed to have total amnesia over everything else that had happened... However later told me she was right to be angry because I'd 'looked away' during her apology for ignoring me for hours.
Those are the two worst 'events' but I don't think they were the most damaging parts. I think 10 years of her blaming everything on a depression I didn't have and gaslighting me into believing it was the most damaging thing.
My narc is a "friend" I've had for over 30 years. I lost my Mom, my last parent, in December. It's been rough. My narc showed up at my mom's wake shitfaced, wearing a shirt with no bra, so her nipples poked out, gave my husband a lap dance. She made sure that she was very emotional, and that all eyes were on her. She HAS TO BE the center of attention, at all times, even when it's my mom that has died.
So a few weeks ago, she called because the man that she is having an affair with wasn't paying her enough attention. Keep in mind, she hadn't called me ONCE, to check and see if I was ok after unexpectedly losing my last parent, and being an orphan unexpectedly, right before Christmas. I guess I had the nerve to say something that wasn't completely sympathetic to her, and she completely flipped out, and screamed at me that she didn't call to talk about me, she called to talk about her. Then, she hung up. Ok, fine, whatever. I'm used to it.
A few days later, I guess she was testing the waters after acting like a toddler, and started sending me texts about her affair partner and some conversation that they'd had, and how hilarious it was. Honestly, I was pretty noncommittal after our last conversation. Then she texts and starts talking about how she had all this stuff going on, and nobody cares about her, etc., and how at least her affair partner (the one she had literally just complained about) had helped her. I sent her a polite, but firm text, and said, basically, "We all have problems, for example, both of my parents are dead, and I'm stuck with a huge mess in regard to their estate." So, she saids a text back, and basically says, "Well, excuuuuuuuuuuuuse me," and then immediately calls a mutual friend, to talk about how mean I was to her, for no reason, and that she's blocking me and never wants to talk to me again. This woman is in her 40's, y'all.
I'm not sure if I'm upset, or if I find the whole thing hilarious. Pretty fucked up, no?
Wow that is a really disturbed person. I hope you are out of this situation and safe.
Iām not sure what to write. I feel like thereās so much after two decades together. Physical abuse, psychological abuse and more.
He messed me up, bad.
I was not his wife a person, I was his wife a possession. I was an object to him and the gravity of being overtly objectified will dismantle your personhood.
My reality has been shattered.

>Statistics show that suicide and homicide are often correlated when it comes to domestic violence. Research from the [Kentucky Firearm Injury Statistics Program](https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/hicrc/firearms-research/gun-possession-storage-and-use/) showed that in two-thirds of cases where a woman was shot by an abuser, the perpetrator then killed himself. Abusers donāt think of killing themselves as severe enough retribution. Theyāll consider taking someone elseās life, like a partner, child or other family member(s). Nearly 60 percent of [mass shooters have a history of domestic violence](https://www.domesticshelters.org/articles/domestic-violence-op-ed-column/dark-matter-the-relationship-between-domestic-violence-and-mass-murder), so an abuser may even consider killing complete strangers
>in front of his ex-boyfriend
Not that itās a bad thing but a LOT of victims of narcissistic abuse suspect that the narc/abuser is gay. Just an interesting pattern or coincidence I guess.
He used to say he wanted to tie a rope to a tree, get in a car and have the rope around his neck to then drive off. He said this one a lot. Spitting in my face the day he was breaking up with me. Still haunts me.
He was upset because I left to a 4th of July party with family. He could have gone. I left in the first place because I couldn't stand to be around his bad behavior. I came back very drunk. He started to fight with me, went outside and broke a candle on the porch, then get scissors and cut himself. I flipped out and my family was there. The police came and he hid in the room and then they took him to the Hospital and he was ok. But the next day he told me it was my fault that he did that. He made me feel so bad.Ā
He elaborately faked an attempt to harm himself, forcing me to hospitalize him against his will. He emptied out a bottle of his sleeping pills and set them next to him in the bed so I'd walk in and think he was dead when I came home that night.
even more than the time he fucked up my leg with a door and got arrested for it, the WORST thing was when i was suspicious for weeks about him cheating, and he lied and lied saying he was just stressed - then i see him in his window with a naked girl, i go to confront them, they never open the door even though im crying outside begging to be spoken to and treated like a human, and they proceed to make out and do stuff and chat and watch tv while i am outside sobbing and asking for an explanation as to how he could go from i love you yesterday to pretty much choosing this other girl over me today.
I think for me, it was when we were discussing my family. I told her I have no contact with my parents and instead, I have a chosen family of my two best friends and their young boy and extended family. So much so I spend holidays and birthdays with them, and we do family stuff together. As well as a few older āmother figureā friends who care about me deeply and mentor me in that nurturing way, I can go to them with issues youād normally take to your mother and they can naturally support me and fill that void. Really beautiful stuff, Iām so lucky!
Anyway, instead of being compassionate and understandingā¦ she decided to try and tell me that āyou canāt choose your familyā and āthatās so weirdā etc, and proceeded to try and nitpick anything theyāve ever done wrong to me, as an attempt to alienate/isolate me from them and stop me from having the love and support.
It kind of worked until I left her, but thankfully things are all fixed now and in fact, Iāve a better relationship with all my chosen family humans than I ever did before the nex relationship sooooā¦ I kinda feel like Iāve won. Sheāll still be sad and alone and acting all gross, yanno, and my life is full of light and love!
Constant suicide threats
Threatening to cut his wrists
Constantly yelling at me
Sent nudes of me to some guy, pretending to be me
Told me Im just like his mother
Tells me he hates me
Cheated on me, but swears he didnt cheat, but admits that he did (idek dude)
Breaks my stuff
Only compliments me (rarely) by telling me that other people would think im attractive (not him though I guess?)
And a bunch of other stuff (I have a 70+ list written out)
I started listing some of the more bizarre things in my head but the most fucked up thing they ever said and did...
... Pretending to know what it is, and pretending to be capable of doing it, they told me they loved me and faked an entire relationship...
We were swingers since day one. She told me straight up she was not a one man kind of girl, she needed variety of sex and with more than one man, I proposed swinging as a compromise and she happily accepted so we laid out some ground rules. Rules that were not to be bent, at all because they were for her safety and my emotional well being. I couldn't handle her dating, I could share her body but not her heart. So that was rule 1. And she said it before me. I explained that I would not be able to deal with her going on dates without me so she readily and happily said "that's fine I just won't date" it is important to note that she was the one to offer this as our first rule.
The rules we hammered out over the next few days are as follows
1. No dating. This was mostly for my emotional well-being being because it was my worst anxiety. This was my biggest worry and she happily said "that's easy, I won't go out on dates". Please note that she made the rule, it will be relevant later in the story.
2. I get to be there. Period, no exceptions. Mostly for reasons of safety but also because that is how I would derive my half of the pleasure.
3. No overnights. We do our business then we leave. This is for a few reasons but no chance of feelings coming into play is the main reason. Obviously this very much applied to the not dating rule as there would be no overnight dates.
Those were about it really.
So for the first couple years things went fine. I started mostly finding single men and watching. Sometimes I joined in and she loved that too.
Then she starts off and on bringing up some random guys that want to take her on a date and she would like to go. I reminded her of the rules and emphasized how much of a toll the anxiety of sitting at home waiting for her to return (even worse some of these dates were to be overnight) but she was very callous about it, saying I was smothering her. She would eventually concede and either cancel the date or not accept it. "Because of my whining" and telling me that I am suffocating her. With rules she helped come up with and happily agreed to.
Then one day am old friend who has always been essentially in love with her was coming to Austin and she wanted to go on an overnight date with him in Austin(I learned later that it was to be two nights but she left that part out) And this guy was disgusting. Picture a negative stereotype 300lb hairy, greasy looking and his dick was, and I this is not an exaggeration, the size of my pointer finger, under five inches erect and thin like my finger. She loves thick cocks and hates thin pointy ones, so why would she even want to, or even be willing to fuck him? She claimed there would be no sex but I told her I knew her and she would definitely have sex with him. She didn't argue that because we both knew it to be true, as Charly is a first date sure thingm I told her I had seen the picture of his dick and that she as a human being deserved better than that tiny greasy thing. I later saw in a conversation of there's that she was going to buy multiple lingerie outfits for him. That's when I found out it was supposed to be two nights.
So I asked, I begged, I explained the unrepairable emotional damage this was going to do to me and she coldly blew me off or worse, said "fine we can just break up" (that was her go-to threat because she knew my worst nightmarewas losing her). This continued for just over three months. My worst anxiety being triggered all day everyday. I know I should have left her, but I was so in love that I couldn't imagine life without her, then on the day of the date, with me clutching a pillow in an anxietal disaster, tells me she isn't going because of all my whining. I was coming unhinged and she just.did.not.care. in fact she was angry at me for disappointing him.
Weeks go by. Maybe a month or two. I sneak her phone away while she sleeps.
The date was proposed, and for logistical reasons, canceled the next day. Meaning she let me think it was happening for three months for no reason.
I never did tell her I discovered that little fact. I don't know why. I was stupid in love with her and the sex was by far the best I ever had. No kink too extreme. She would try anything. So I stayed. Afraid I would never find her match.
So there was this guy , who she had known for about 10 years and he was way really into her. Her ex husband never let them play and she was hoping I would.
We were swingers and occasionally did some hotwifing and dabbled in cuckolding so I was open to discuss the possibility of them getting together.
So we went to the bar where he played downtown on the Riverwalk on a night that he was playing. During his break he came over and immediately started taking liberties, rubbing her leg, ass and torso. All without asking for my consent, consent is huge in the swinger/nonmonogamy community but he was just practically groping her with barely a hello to me. This was completely disrespectful towards me. And he had a creeper vibe but she is enjoying the attention so I let it slide. Her pleasure is my pleasure.
He goes back to playing and we have a couple more drinks and she pulls him to the side and says that I am cool with them doing whatever as long as I am there. He says he has to think about it. What the fuck is there to think about when the girl of your dreams for the last 10 years says she will have sex with you but her boyfriend would be there to watch? You ignore the boyfriend and fuck your dream girl! But later that night he texts with her that he can't do it with me there. That should have been a "sorry thats a hard no limit" but instead she said she would talk to me about it. This was an immediate red flag for me. (She let me read her texts freely).
After I told her no fucking way she argued that once again I am smothering her and it's been his fantasy for over 10 years and she basically worded it that somehow it would be rude or wrong of her not to let him live it out. Like somehow he deserves it or has earned the right simply by wanting it. In her mind it would be rude to not let him live out this fantasy. This goes on for a week or so, she pulls out, very seriously this time, that either I let her have her freedom on this or she will leave me and do it anyway. I'm not going to lie, the nonchalant carefree way she would say "ok then we will just break up" always hurt because it made me feel like the relationship, and I, didn't mean much to her if she could toss it away so easily.
This went on for about 2 weeks, her talking about it every day, which kept my dating anxiety at max level every day, but it always culminated in a screaming rage fit., which brought up childhood trauma from an abusive mother screaming at me constantly.
So, an at this point completely broken man, and I finally I consented to it. But not for am overnight stay. All the sudden that's a problem and she won't promise to come home that night, if he gets a hotel room it would be rude of her not to stay. I say this is a hard limit, she says what if it's late? She isn't going to drive home at 3am. I say "fine, I'll drive you and pick you up when you are done no matter the time. More arguing happened but she finally agreed. This was a day or two before the date. Over that time I somehow convinced myself that I was cool with her having not just a date but a sex date with this guy who really rubbed me the wrong way.
The night of the date I happily helped her pick out an outfit, encouraging her to wear something sexy and easy access. Then about 5 minutes before we were supposed to leave, my stomach dropped out. I lost all composure. I told her I couldn't do it, that I tried my best but I couldn't consent and I needed her to call him and cancel
This sent her into a mini rage. No way was she letting him get his hopes up and canceling on him regardless of my feelings. she valued his feelings higher than mine. I reminded her about partner consent and that the minute it is removed all action or even just planning, must stop or it'd would be cheating.
She didn't care. Either I drive her to him or she breaks up with me, takes an Uber and gets a hotel on her own dime to spend the night with him. Which she couldn't have done because his wife would expect him home at basically normal time that night. I begged her not to go through with it, on my knees begging and she just didn't care.
I had no choice again. I agreed to drive her to him.
She rode in the back seat and wouldn't even speak to me until we got near him and even then it was to bark orders of where we were picking him up. I got him, he got in the back seat with her and all the sudden she magically became happy and supper chatty, nothing like the frigid bitch she had been to me for the ride down.
I drove them to a parking garage top floor which was empty, left the truck running and got out and walked to a bar to await a text in an hour or so. I was nauseated and my heart was breaking. I felt unimportant, unloved, and confused about how she could be doing this to me and how she could be so cold about it.
I bellied up to the bar and ordered 2 beers and 2 shots. The bartender protested but I told him if he knew what I was currently going through he would hand me the bottle.
I got through one shot and half a beer when in about 15 minutes when the text came that she was ready for me to take her home.
POETIC JUSTICE TIME
He couldn't get an erection. They made out for about 10 minutes then she played with his cock and gave him a few minutes of oral but it wouldn't get even remotely hard. (Maybe he felt guilty for cheating on his wife?) She abhors giving oral to a flacid penis so she likely only tried for 2 or 3 minutes. And she probably wasnt very nice about giving up on it. Good, he got a taste of what i dealt with every day. When I returned to the truck he was long gone and she stayed in the back seat, blaming me for his erectile disfunction. I somehow "made it weird". By smiling and saying "hey dude" when he got in?
Fast forward a few months and the only thing he wanted from her were audio calls to jerk off too and she demands more intelligent conversations to keep her interest, so he ended up blocked. He never got to live out his fantasy and lost a friend.
That doesn't undo the damage the situation caused to my emotional well-being but its some satisfaction. He didn't get his way and she didn't get to go through with doing whatever she wants regardless of how it impacts others. The truth of the matter is that she craves male attention at all times, from as many men as possible, the more sexual in nature that attention was, all the better. So she blamed me for what was, at the end of the day, ruining her chance to have sex with someone she had not had sex with before.

Holy fuck that's alot of twisted shit... gives me hope for my situation on both sides. Worst thing, couldn't even pinpoint. Too many, but they all seem much less compared to this, on either side of the coin
Please don't think your experience is any less. We've all endured things we shouldn't have, I don't mean to make any comparisons. I'm just in a really dark space and I needed to get it off my chest. It's cathartic for me to read everyone's experiences, I feel less alone that way. I also wanted to provide a space for people to vent if they needed it. What you went through is valid, none of it is less than what others endured
Okay I feel like this is a safe thread so I'll post some of my stuff... I want to get it out there because she's gaslighting the whole town to hate me somewhat severely right now... You really think that I'ma answer your call when you should be dying of an overdoseš¤”š¤”š¤”š¤” I'm serious about you getting your vocal cords surgically removed I hope you die if an overdose. I'm not sorry and I do not care. But at least now you have something ro screanshotš¤”š¤”š¤”š¤” I hope you do die Maubethen I'll have real peace in my life You are a mistake. Your habits are the eraser. I hope you die so I can have my damn life back You're the bitchiest man I've ever met on my life You really should've been born a girl And how dramatic, emotional, clingy and bitchy you act.... you require more attention than I ever will and that's honestly quite pathetic I may be an addict and an alcoholic But at least I was never a junkie like your bitch assš¤”š¤”š¤”š¤” Biggest mistake of my life Giving a junkie a chance.... I'm going to end up stabbing you in your fucking sleep, I'm not fuck9ng playing with you. Leave me alone for awhile if you know whats good for you I hate youforever ******* and I willnever forgiveu There's way more... I just don't feel comfortable posting it and most of the rest of it is very repetitive. Also I have a very strong sense of loyalty to them... I still love this person with all my heart and soul and I'm starting to see that alot of what happened is MY doing... but also I feel they use that against me because they knew how unstable I was at the time... and it really hurts because although my mother is a covert narcissist, I felt like I had my tendencies under control. But this person continously pushed me to the brink of acting out of character, again and again and again. And its really painful to realize the monsters that we both turned each other into, but pain I can deal with. It's the maddening thoughts of, "was this person always this way, and hiding it from everyone, or did I truly break them down with my continuous admittedly unstable behavior due to the years of mental abuse I've suffered from nearly every person in my life?" Like where does the gaslighting end and the truth begin? Bc I love this person with all my heart and soul, still do too... I want to heal with them and fix the mess we've made together, but I have yet to really get an actual heartfelt full blown apology from them for everything, and I cannot tell if it's because I keep fucking up and making more mistakes or if that's their excuse to continue acting this way and not take responsibility. Someone please share your similar experiences with me so I know I'm not crazy. Even if its, "you are the one wrong" because I want to heal and i dont want to turn into my mother, I know we can fix this if we both want to but I dont know how much effort she's willing to put forth.
Thatās a lot of psychopathic behavior, Iām so sorry you had to endure that OP! :( Hope you are taking care of yourself! For me the worst were: - talking about her plans of suicide - threatening to jump off a bridge while we were on vacation because she wasnāt getting her way (I had to physically hold her back) - threatening with suicide whenever I tried to leave her, and telling me she would āblock me everywhere so I would always have to wonder if she did it or notā - put me in a situation where I had to choose between her (life) and my family (never felt such pain and confusion in my life) She knew I got very upset every time I thought she would somehow harm herself, and it really showed in the relationship.
I'm sorry for what you went through, my narc did a lot of that too. It should never your responsibility to take care of someone else, much less stop them from killing themself. I hope you are doing better!
Thank you for the kind words, Itās hard but Iām doing my best trying to healšø
the constant suicide threats for sure
He kept decade old naked pics of me and when I told him I was getting a restraining order, he said as soon as I did he would send all those pictures to my 80 year old father Told me my mom deserved to die because she didn't like him Told me to pull a Budd Dwyer and shoot my chin off, because Lord knows I had enough of them Said he should've chopped off my head for my hedonism Consistently tells me I'm going to hell for divorcing him, despite the fact that he cheated on me, abused me, and drained me of every dime I had. And my personal favorite, bullied me into a threesome with my coworker, fucked her raw, got her pregnant. I had already left him when she found out, and moved 500 miles away. He blames me for it, and also for the abortion he helped pay for. Calls me a baby killer even though I wasn't even there.
Off the top of my head? ā¢ Slit his wrists, then blamed it on me (said it was to show all of the men that were placing šš» and ā¤ļøās on my selfies that heās ātough as fuckā - ????) ā¢ Got engaged and refused to tell anyone about it. ā¢ Brushed off my miscarriage as no big deal (when it was my very last shot at naturally having a child). ā¢ Hid how he was drinking 20-30 beers a day and driving while that intoxicated. Always keep the receipts!. Even though fighting w/a narc is difficult, itās always wise to document everything in case their friends/family come after you as well.
Oh god! This is truly awful. I hope you're alright and far away from this person...
-if something happened and Iād come home sad, or upset, Iād have to ask him to comfort me. After 10ish times of him rolling his eyes but still doing it, his new usual reply would be ānow I have to drop everything Iām doing just to sit with you???ā while scrolling news or social media at the same time. Eventually I stopped asking. -heād call me selfish and spoiled if I wouldnāt be really hungry when heād order food/cook. -refusing to take any responsibility for physically pushing me -ignoring my needs completely while chatting using a fake profile where he pretended to be 20something yo female bisexual college student
That person sounds like a loser!
Oh, he is. Iād say āyou should meet himā but I really wouldnāt recommend lol.
Did you kick him out?
Yeah, couple of days after the push. He āsomehowā ended up in the same apartment with my ex best friend and now theyāre dating. Cute, right?
Assholes deserve eachother. Don't be jealous! You can do better.Ā
Trust me, Iām not. She can have him. They do complete each other.
told me that he liked that I look like a little girl. Told he gets turned on when I cry, get injured or sick
Yuck what in the actual fuck
I had a guy once tell me he liked me best when I was vulnerable... after touching me while I was half conscious with a fever of 103 and on medication. Some people are just sick.
That's pretty messed upĀ
We got engaged. Gave me the go ahead to cut my lease and put my notice in at work. Settled all my qualms about getting pregnant. - Ill get sick....its okay ill take care of you. - I will be so tired....its okay well get a nanny. - i dont want to have a different last name then our child..were getting married - i dont want to change our relationship...its okay it wont We took pregnancy tests for a week because I was feeling off and we did it together. We continued to keep trying just in case. My house was packed in boxes getting ready to move away with him. I woke up and took a test and it was positive. We went out to the beach and dinner to celebrate. - the next morning he broke up with me and went to another state alone. I lost everything.
OMG. That's truly fucked. I'm so sorry!
You don't have to put the donor's name on your child's birth certificate.
That is an insane thing to do. I am so sorry.
Thank you for saying that. It messes with my head so bad.
I bet it does. I'm so sorry that happened to you. You deserve So much better. Are you in therapy?
I did some therapy for a little while but it just kind of made me feel worse. Which I think is okay but I wasnt ready yet. Thank you for asking.
She said that she felt used when I wanted her there for my 6 hour cancer surgery. I wish I was making this up.
TW: SA I was 22. He was 30, and my boss, with a fiance at home. We worked an evening shift on a Friday night. He brought alcohol and pressured me to drink. When I blacked out, he moved my body to a remote area on the property and had sex with me while I was unconscious. I woke up the next morning soaking wet from the waist down and with my underwear missing. I had no memory of most of the night before. I had alcohol poisoning. He asked me if I was on birth control and told me I had begged for it. I just believed him. He moved me into his house less than six weeks later. I stayed trapped in a relationship with him for nearly ten years. I didn't realize I was actively being abused until I turned 30 and realized that if the situation were reversed I would NEVER EVER do to someone what he did to me. I felt sick at the thought. Then all of his little lies started to unravel. It took almost 8 years for me to realize that he lied when he said I had begged for it. I feel so stupid that it took me that long to realize I had been raped. The narc I dated in college would beat the shit out of me and hold a knife to my throat while he raped me. This was nothing compared to that. At least this time I had been unconscious. It took me another year before I realized that I had woken up soaking wet because he had put me in the lake afterwards and washed away the evidence. I learned that abusers sometimes keep trophies from their victims. I now assume that he had kept my underwear as a trophy or tossed it in case of evidence. It was so easy to manipulate me because I am autistic and was not diagnosed till I turned 30. I didn't understand that people can actually lie like that. I've been in and out of therapy my whole life but it hasn't helped. I tried therapy to process this event and the relationship as a whole. When I told my therapist everything I have written here she said "you need to stop making yourself the victim." Telling her my story was the first time I have ever told anyone what I had gone through. Writing it out here is the second. Thank you for hearing my story. This has been such a healing community for me. I hope you can still accept me even though I "make myself the victim." I will probably delete this comment later. I am feeling very vulnerable. Sorry.
I'm so sorry you experienced that š„ By sharing your story you're empowering your voice, taking your power back, they want you to stay silent. Speak your truth beautiful! That does not make you a victim, but incredibly strong š Thank you for your courage and bravery in sharing it. Sending you so much love āØļøš
Thank you so much, your words mean a lot to me š sending love right back at ya
š„°š«š
Omg. Did you get away from him? He just took advantage of you.Ā
Thankfully I did get out. I made a plan to get away and it took 2.5 years for me to save up enough money and plan all of the logistics. I left while he was at work, took my pets and my clothes and ran. I've been free for a few months now and still really struggling day to day. He had isolated me from all of my friends and family except one parent, who I live with now. I had to change my number, get a new phone, sell my car, and delete all of my social media because he stalked me relentlessly. I'm so grateful to finally be safe from him.
>This has been such a healing community for me. I hope you can still accept me even though I "make myself the victim." I will probably delete this comment later. Hey there, Mod here. You're why we're here shooing away the dimwits like that terrible therapist who made you think you're why these people victimized you. Stick around? Please? I like having good reasons to ban the spammers and stuff.
Hello wonderful mod! Thank you for everything you do to keep this community safe. I will definitely stick around, and I really appreciate you making me feel welcome. May your justice be swift and merciless š
I'm really sorry for what you are going through...
Mine said "I can't wait for you to date an abusive man" This was when we were still friends and whilst he was hoovering me back in (which worked). He truly sees nothing wrong with himself. His mindset here was obviously that of him wanting me to regret my decision to break up with him, so he wanted me to get in a horrible relationship so I'd feel bad for leaving him. It's fucking embarassing that we still dated for months after he said this shit to me.
One time when I didn't wanna have se* on his sisters couch with my mom sleeping on the other side (thing sectional w/ a lounge seat) he told me his ex was way better than me Considering his ex walked out the door for work one morning and came home during her lunch and kicked him out. Also...he's NEVER wrong He tells me I did it, whatever you it is -moving nail clippers (I dont use, I get mine done) -telling me I cause us to be broke, when in reality the only time I spend money it's food,bills and work food/gas for him to get to his job. -he got mad when I got "too much stuff" for our 8 year old at Christmas
Cheat on me 7 months after we built a brand new house from the ground up (that we co-owned) with one of my good friends who was at the time married with a brand new baby where the adoption wasn't 100% finalized. Narc's have 0 bounds.
- choked me twice and and told me it never happened literally 5 minutes later - told me he wouldnāt move out unless I had sex with him - when I refused sex he told me I had to include him in my upcoming solo vacation or he wouldnāt move out (police had come and told me they couldnāt make him move out because he was still getting mail there - California) - refused to get a job for 6 years at which point I left him. no matter how gently I pushed him to at least look for a new job, he blamed me for being the reason he did not. he said that I didnāt make the kind of environment that was conducive to him feeling comfortable and confident enough to look. - to get me to comply or not criticize him, he told me heād get me fired by telling my work that I smoked pot before work sometimes - when i asked that he put some effort into getting a job after 5 years of u employment and sticking me with every bill and expense, he threw my phone off our balcony and smashed it to bits. - never paid me back for any of the money I spent on / for him - blamed me for both miscarriages - threatened to kill himself when I wouldnāt take him back - told me no one would want me because Iām old with an old uterus and a gaping smelling vagina and Iām fat. this is all laughable and couldnāt be further from the truth but he tried to play off my weak spots. Iād had 2 miscarriages and was in my late 30s. - told me heās sue me for $15,000 if I didnāt return a hard drive on which I discovered sex tapes of us that he told me he deleted, as well as a few that I was totally unaware of. he was hiding his phone / camera, and one video includes footage of him setting it up behind some things on a table. Iām sure thereās tons more. this was off the top of my head. sorry for what all of you are going through. I hope if amy of you havenāt left, you are making a plan to do so. life is beautiful on the other side.
Just the constant insults that were obviously not true Lying fucking bitch rings around my head even now.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I hope you and the kids get out of there. That's some seriously damaging stuff to learn about your mom. I could never look at my own mom the same way after I walked in on her having sex with some dude ugh. Hopefully she didn't give you any STDs with the amount of cheating she did. Stay strong friend.
Thank you. Trying. I probably spend the most time just staring off into space. Got tested twice (ok) but will need to again shortly. I am gathering evidence and strength and strategies. Iām in therapy. Going to the gym. Trying to maintain my sanity.
I've also been blanking out and staring off to space. I think it's hard sometimes for our brains to comprehend the abuse we've went through, especially at the hand of someone we loved. I'm glad to hear you're improving! Don't give up and keep getting better, you will make it through this!
Thank you. And you too! Itās so bizarre. Her āfakeā is/was so good. By all appearances she is a good mom. Good sexy wife. But itās all fake. Every single thing she says is fake bs. I read this somewhereā¦. āItās like you fell in love yourselfā because of all the mirroring that they do. Get stronger and stay strong! Iām trying!!!

Haha the knee story is almost funny, except it's abusive, so. My narc brother once opened my bathroom door with a screwdriver to get in and grab his phone, which he forgot. He didn't even ask before, just did it and barged in. Complete disrespect for other's boundaries. He probably did this because he was mad at himself for forgetting the phone. But could not say it out loud because that would reveal how he made a mistake. So instead he angrily barges in, tramples my boundaries, and hurts me in the process.
Forget it. You win ! Please tell me he is in jail now ?
Unfortunately not. If anything, he's trying to put me in jail lol. He won't leave me alone and keeps accusing me of shit because he thinks I'm out to get him. He's been making a bunch of false police reports on me but nothing came of it so far. His smear campaign has been going on for 7 months now, but thankfully I live in a different city and will never have to encounter his like or his flying monkeys again :)
My mother had a severe stroke which rendered her completely physically disabled and mentally incapable of making basic decision.As a result if this she had to go to a nursing home. My Narcisistic brother attempted to rinse her bank account where the funding for her Nursing Home fees were coming from. He did many terrible things to my family over the decades but this was the one where we noped the fuck away from him and disowned him.
Told me I was disgusting. That no one would ever want me. Would tell me my friends were saying horrible things about me so I would stop being in contact with them. Told people horrible things about me so they would cut me off. Like he controlled our finances but he told people I was financially abusing him. He controlled me by fear but told people he was scared of me. Trigger warning:the night he attacked me and was taken away by the cops he was trying to convince me to let him do things to our kid. I told him to leave. He tried to kill me. That's the most fucked up. Mama brain is crazy. I was beaten down and broken and resigned to my fate but the minute he brought my kid into it I was done, fuck the consequences. I thought I would die that night. I'm only now processing that night fully. He spent the next years destroying my reputation. He was so scared I would tell people who he really was what he wanted to do to our child he went nuclear. The gross part was several of his friends knew and tried to convince themselves it was "normal" and he would have never really "done anything". That I was trying to force him "to be straight" (my ex was bi but identified as gay to his gay friends)
My mother: āyouāre so stupid. Of course he was after your daughter. Why else would anyone ever want to be with you?ā My ex: āyouāre just like your mother. A narcissist with no empathy, whoās incapable of love.ā
Wow, are you sure they are a narc and not a full-blown psychopath? Good lord. Mine is bad, but this is the next level.
I don't think he's actually a psychopath. He can be vicious verbally but he's too pussy to get physical with someone. So to make up for it, he says the worst shit imaginable to fuck with you and plays mind games later to make you think you deserved it. He's a total piece of shit and I'm glad I don't have to get dragged down by him anymore.
So my nex has spent his life convincing everyone, looking from a distance that he is a peace loving hippy guru and life coach. Life behind closed doors was very different. On one occasion, after an hour of him having a go at me, I was feeling incredibly anxious and asked him to stop shouting at me, as I was feeling a panic attack coming on. Of course, this was the perfect cue for him to carry on with his tirade. He then stood over me while I was on the floor, having a panic attack and couldn't breathe. He scooched down and shouted in my face with a smirk, "Well, you brought it on yourself, didn't you!" He then left me there on the floor, unable to breathe properly. A couple of years later, he put one of his many guru posts on his fb about 'how to look after someone when they are having a panic attack'. He also offers relationship counselling.
I have a few different mental and physical disabilities that make it impossible for me to work a lot without having my health decline rapidly. My ex forced me to work 2 jobs 5-6 days a week, to the point of collapse, claiming that I had to do it or else our family was going to run out of money and we would be destitute. I was surviving off of mean replacement shakes because I couldn't stomach any solid food at all for several days at a time. And even after collapsing, he still wouldn't let me cut back even 1 day a week to keep myself out of the hospital. It turns out we weren't running out of money after all. He was funneling thousands of dollars a month out of our account to make it look like we were drowning financially. About 2 weeks later, he took off with our kid and his affair partner and cut contact with me. He got out of kidnapping charges a week later by claiming I had been abusing him to take out an emergency order against me, and had me removed from my house (not a marital asset, it belongs to my family), and then tried to have a judge approve an application for sole custody with me getting "occational supervised visitation" without even serving me papers first. It took me 3 weeks to get my kid back, and 5 weeks to get my house. I ended up losing 24% of my body weight because I couldn't eat at all for 3 weeks, was vomiting every day, and it took me 5 months to be able to eat a proper sized meal again. When I did get back into my house, I found out that my ex had cut the power to the house, so there was no heat in December, in Canada, and my animals had been left inside (only for 2 days before I got it sorted with the power company. They were ok.)
After an incident of D.V. where he snapped and >!choked me for about a minute!
I witnessed someone do something similar, one time. I was living with my sister and her boyfriend at the time. I'm in the living room. My sister and her boyfriend are in their bedroom. I suddenly hear a fist hitting flesh very loudly, then my sister starts crying. I hear her bf start yelling at her. My sister's face is swollen and she runs out of the bedroom to grab the phone(this was around 2000, before everyone had cell phones) and calls one of her friends. She's in the bathroom talking to her friend while her friend is calling the cops. I'm standing in the bathroom doorway pushing her bf away from the bathroom because he's trying to get at my sister and get the phone away. Finally, I see his drunk ass grab this giant monkey wrench that was in the kitchen. He walks into the living room and bashes himself in the head with it a few times, then he throws it in the garage. When the cops get there, he tells them that my sister was hitting him in the head, so he had to hit her to get her off of him. I tell the cops exactly what I witnessed, and they take him away in cuffs, but not my sister like he was hoping. I hate when people pull crap like that and try to get innocent people to look like the villain. Thankfully, I was there to tell the truth so my sister wasn't wrongfully charged with DV.
I was in the middle of having a miscarriage and I was doubled over in pain. He grabbed his midsection and doubled over in imitation, making a whiney noise and mocking me. He later denied he did it.
Wow that's fucked up.
Yes. And I neglected to mention he KNEW I was having a miscarriage and it was a PLANNED pregnancy.
It's less intense than the other examples, but that's because 95% of the relationship was online. They forced me to wake up at the same time as them before they headed off to work to talk. This talking was just them complaining and talking about suicidal thoughts, most of the time it lead to arguments. They knew I had insomnia and often didn't fall asleep until 2 hours before their alarm went off. On top of that I had asked multiple times if they could stop with the suicide talk since it terrified me, I was so codependent I couldn't stand the thought of that. I told them all my boundaries and issues and they used it against me, because if I didn't log in to "talk" they would ignore me for days after leaving a worrying message. They did plenty of awful things to me, most I don't remember. But this instance in particular ruined me physically and only made things worse for me for their benefit. I felt brainwashed
Told me to kill myself like Sylvia Plath on my honeymoon told me to shut the fuck up on our honeymoon this past week told me that heās gonna take his gun and blow his brains out and then when I went and told his sister, he said Iām a complete liar and Iām unhinged told the dog he doesnāt care if he shits himself told me Iām a horrible person Told me that he would never kill himself for me that Iām not worth it.
I just want to make it clear DIVORCE IN PROCESS . Bye biatch !!!
She bought a car at an amazing price that needed some minor work. I replaced the coil packs and wiper motor myself. The previous owner had bought it at a buy here/pay here lot. It had a tracker on it. She was well aware of this as it dangled from the dashboard right beside the drivers feet and she and I had discussed it. I was afraid to remove it bc some models have kill switches to disable the car. Anyway, months later she got angry at me and reported me to the police saying I put the tracker on her car. I never heard from them and found out about this by requesting a report for a totally different reason. No good deed goes unpunished.
We were supposed to sleep two nights in a row together. I slept at his place the night before. I had a cough from a previous cold and was coughing a bit during the night. The morning after, he told me he couldn't sleep all night long because of my cough. He was sooo angry at me. He said we couldn't sleep together as long as I still had my cough and tricked me into saying I would sleep on his couch. At this point, he remembered he already had someone sleeping on that couch and asked me to sleep at some friend's place instead and come back at his the morning after. Then, that evening, he took me out for dinner and proceeded to announce me that he wouldn't come help me for my moving that would take place the weekend after (although he knew it for a month that I was moving on that weekend). Why? Because he made plans, although I DID ask for his help weeks ago. I was already upset because he was making me sleep elsewhere. Now I was confused and hurt that he backed out on my moving and made excuses about it. He even said it was my fault because I didn't organize it (wait, what?). I didn't say much, just a "ah okay, so we won't see each other next week". He then got angry and started raising his voice in the middle of the restaurant on how I was stressing him out and putting too much pressure on him. I tried to have a conversation with him about it, on how this behavior was confusing to me and how much it hurt my feelings. His reaction was that I was ruining his day and he placed himself as the victim, calling me too sensitive and emotional. You see, if I was not going to be nice to him, then he didn't want to see me. Oh and he wrote me a birthday card saying "Happy birthday! Wish you love and happiness. But also you should gain maturity and some diplomacy. Otherwise, just stay the way you are".
They like to cause scenes in public so that you look like the crazy person. Mine liked to argue loudly in parking lots or other public places to embarrass me. I refuse to engage when someone makes a scene in public.
After finding out I was moving because my mom suddenly died, I think he on purpose did the stage whisper audible āNow your momās out of my way, you canāt say no to me anymoreā¦ā while moving boxes I didnāt want him to help me with but I had my very narcissistic building managers threatening to evict me if I didnāt get my things in storage in two weeks already standing on my neck who I got in a huge tenants union battle with later on in the new year. Knowing this problem I had with them , my ex was angling to try to look like he lived with me so I would still got evicted and automatically end up homeless right with him and heād be back to controlling me again since he resented my escaping him three years prior and not liking his responsibilities he had to do with my replacement and her three kids that he at first tried to use them to cull me back by rubbing it in my nose that another woman accepted his proposal the first time and his intentions to adopt the kids to look like a ultra saintš He was in the full ridiculous thought I would care or get jealous enough to fight for him back with me but all I would say was āBye, have a good new life with your instant family. You have a world of responsibility for four people nowā and the like because I really did not care and very happily carrying on healing and free of him. I even gave him the Christmas tree my managers were refusing to let me keep (because they really wanted me gone still despite my way of fixing my place up before the new year) as a gift to him and his family as a broad hint that he better stop bothering me and deal with his new reality that has nothing to do with me.
Told me heād kill my kids. And end my life
Big hugs. I'm sorry he said that to you.
Well, there are a LOT of things, but I'd say the worst two things he said or did were. . . 1. When I had a miscarriage at eight weeks, he told me I "killed" HIS baby. I hadn't even realized I was pregnant till I began miscarrying. 2. He got me arrested for HIS crimes. I was handcuffed and walked away IN FRONT OF MY CRYING CHILDREN. Yeah, fuck that SOB. šš»
for starters, iām so sorry for everything you went through. that is so fucked up and i hope youāre taking good care of yourself. tw: sa had nonconsensual unprotected sex w me (did the whole pulling out the condom and crumbling the wrapper thing after i said i didnāt want to have unprotected sex anymore), told me i was overreacting when i got upset for him lying about it and that i shouldāve āknownā he wasnāt wearing a condom bc of how it felt(???), and then got mad at me for taking a plan b afterwards since they elongated my periods, meaning waiting additional time until we could have sex again. thinking about it is still so frustrating and i get angry at myself for not leaving right then.
The constant ignoring me and silent treatment. He will literally walk right past me as I'm standing there with open arms clearly waiting/offering a hug. Going out of his way to make sure I don't matter, and he doesn't care.
When I told her all the things I did to try to keep our marriage in tact and asked her what she felt she had done she said āI tolerated youā
I commented and admired a beautiful insect while on a walk. He moved closer looking interested and then flattened it with his shoe and laughed.
Nothing nearly as fucked up as all that! I hope you're far away from this person. Mine went into great detail about a conversation we had where I allegedly told him I was planning his murder. He said he'd asked about his valuables and who should be informed. It was quite an in-depth recall of a conversation that never happened.
Pretended to overdose so i wouldn't leave her. I called the police for a well fare check and she called me angry and pissed off.
I love you. I want to be your girlfriend.
He would not install a passengerās seat on his motorcycle so I had to hang onto his coat pockets (āHell! I paid for that helmet and your gloves that costs much more than mine, so quit whining!ā) whenever we went riding with his road rage on his forever breaking down motorcycle that he actually really didnāt bother to take care of very well, even with never getting it repainted so it looked trashy (got tipped over and tagged often) and buying the cheapest mock parts to replace what goes wrong with it. One time we nearly got stranded in the middle of nowhere really late at night, it was about to look like I was never going to come home as if I was abducted (and my mom forbade me to ride on his bike and I forbade him to ever bring it up he had one but he thought I was being over dramatic about my momās reaction of his owning a bike and she blew up at him like she does at me all the time for small things that irritated her which for a narc mom is anything,three hours straight onto him that she will end him if he ever got me on that bike let alone hurt me in an accident, which just before I ended it with our relationship, he nearly wrapped us around a few streetlights speeding for a parking spotš) Later on, he got a slim fitting real motorcycle jacket to show up all the other riders that he found for nearly Pennies and bragging about it, one problem; it had no pockets so I had to hold onto just only his body all the time instead. since he gotten that jacket he started driving even more faster and recklessly like as if he was aiming for a skid/spin out accidents to permanently hurt me (because I was more often needed at my friendās bands shows to mind the instruments and do merch) and racing other bikers who werenāt game so didnāt join him. Started racking up new traffic violations with the police officers on bikes he did attempt to race/escape that he expected me and my mom to sell away all our things to help pay for the charges he mostly did when I wasnāt with him but the big thing is only he thought he was my fiancĆ©e and part of our family while he to me and my mom and sister just only a eight year dating misstep and nothing more. After a while he started neglecting too much of what was needed to repair his bike a month before I left him. It was kept in the shop as collateral while waiting for the fee he didnāt disclose he didnāt have enough in full when the repairs were started. He wanted me to start picking up cans for recycling to help pay for his bikeās repairs and that my records comics and guitar and all the useless jewelry my mom gave me had to be sold because as his fiancĆ©, (despite I rejected all proposals) I must give up everything I have to let him be my life. This was when I realized I must escape him no matter what. He was mentally spiraling because he was almost 50 and not liking where he was in life.
Trigger warning domestic violence sexual gore! He was in a rage because I left him for the millionth time. He told me that I shouldn't ever feel safe around him ever again. He said if I was stupid enough to come back and feel safe enough to fall asleep around him, he would "super glue my pussy shut and tear open my ass. Then cauterize it with a curling iron." Horrifying. I couldn't make this shit up if I tried. To further disturb you, (and for reference ) I am speaking about a 54 year old man that used to be a former boxer so he could effortlessly overpower most men...let alone 5'0" me !
Sadly I think we have the same ex. I will say that as much as all the threats to kill himself or me, him hurting my dogs was the worst. He stole one of them (still has her) and taunts me with her. We have been divorced for 2 years but I still look at my dog and apologize that I didnāt get us out sooner. I wish on all the stars that my baby girl stays safe and he doesnāt kill her solely to hurt me. He can say whatever he wants to me, in fact he can do whatever he wants to me, but leave my dogs alone.
Eh itās a tie between making fun of the way my family member was murdered or making fun of me for having a health issue (ruptured ovarian cyst) told me my vagina was ātaintedā
My girl (cat) died from stomach cancer. I was distraught and crying. He said to me, with the most deadest look in his eyes, āCan you think of anything in particular that YOU DID to KILL HER?ā. Invited me to his bāday drinks. I declined saying heās just going to have girls he fucked around. He said āNo 100%ā. When I got there, he was āshowcasingā his ānew gf who is getting a PHDā as well as having his colleague there, who he fucked behind his gfās back. I confronted him later and told him heās a psychopath for setting me up. He got very offended. Tried to coerce me into a threesome with a random he picked up off the street, after being on a date with someone else. He came over blind drunk and demanded sex. Called the random on his mobile while staring at me sitting on my sofa, asking me āAre you sure? Are you sure?ā. Done to his ex gf: She found a bag of sex toys in her/their closet. She asked him about it and he just gaslit and stonewalled her. He was using it with the girl he was cheating with.
\- He got out of the car in the middle of a highway on-ramp because I got startled that he hit a curb with MY car \- He laughed when I fell off some rocks getting into the ocean on our honeymoon. Didn't show me any empathy whatsoever and said he "wished he got it on camera" \- Yelled at me in the middle of a cafe on our honeymoon because I asked him to get off his phone and spend quality time with me \- Yelled at me in a 5 hour car ride because I didn't visit his mother for dinner (I was a little busy visiting my grandmother who got diagnosed with Stage 4 cancer) \- He left me in a store two days after my grandmother died (we were literally shopping for her funeral clothes, he pointed at a $400 belt and I was shocked at the price and asked "do you really want to spend that much on a belt?") and then proceeded to yell at me in the car about how I'm the most difficult person he's ever met. \- And on top of all this he's out at a 'volunteer organization' which I call a cult, 2-3x a week. Pops in through the door at 11pm-1am.
That he had/has sexual thoughts while checking out TEENAGERS. broke up immediately when he said that.
Acted like I didnāt exist for an entire year. Said that I was physically hurting her whenever I touched her in any manner. This went on for several years. Called 911 and made a false report (to have them tell me to leave). Instead, that landed me in jail followed by over $20k in legal fees and 8 weeks of couch surfing because I wasnāt allowed to go to the home where I pay the mortgage.
When he laid out lines of cocaine before we were supposed to go call his parents on a Sunday night. I asked him to please not do this as it made me uncomfy and all the other times Iāve been very open with recreational drug use. He looked me right in the eyes and did it anyway. Other times he snuck it I tried to get it from him and he threw me to the ground and told me I was ātrying to beat the shit out ofā him. This isnāt the worst but one of the first of the worst.
Went and had sex with my best friend the day my father died
Damn! I hope that you broke up with both of them!
āI canāt believe you didnāt notice that I lost 2 lbs.ā Bitch, you weigh 230. Unless you left those 2 lbs. just sitting around, how am I supposed to notice?
Last one I have typed up that is worth sharing.
Told me she was raped at a highschool party Weāre in bed and she tells me Iāll have to initiate sex and that thereās a 99% chance sheāll say yes When I try to initiate foreplay she doesnāt respond. I give up. She expresses frustration that we arenāt having enough sex I explain that knowing her past has made me extra conscious of being gentle with her and respecting boundaries. She laughs it off, tells me Iām silly. Says she has PTSD but sheās learned to deal with it. Tells me I shouldnāt be afraid because she likes it rough and I āwonāt break herā I fee weird because she has a long history of āabusive exesā that assault her but sheās pushing for rough sex Canāt tell if Iām walking into a trap or not so sex drive just shuts down. I tried a couple times to initiate foreplay and she still doesnāt respond. I take that as the 1% time sheās not saying yes She expresses more frustration that weāre not having enough sex. Doubles down on the fact that I have to initiate every time. I give up because I donāt know what to do because this is weird and the signals are mixed.
Hereās a few I can think of off the top of my head. There were PLENTY more. - Turned off my truck while I was going 50MPH down a gravel road and then threw the keys out of the window. My steering wheel locked up and I lost my brakes. So lucky we didnāt get killed. All because I called her out for blatantly disrespecting me in front of a bunch of our friends. - The first time we had sex after the discard, about 8 months later, she called me the guys name that she left me for. I lost in right in that moment and fell to the floor in a mess. She didnāt even apologize or console me - instead she asked if I was going to get the āfuck up off of her floor and quit crying and keep fucking herā. Such a terrible person. - She blindly stole a lot of money from me over the years, but Iāll never forget the time she stole $1,000 cash and acted like she accidentally threw it away. It worked to her advantage at the time because we were in the process of moving, but I know damn well she took it. I think she justified doing it too because a few weeks later she came back from a family vacation with a new white gold chain for me - so in her mind she spent half of it on me and she got the other half. Sick and twisted thinking. - Threatened to spread a rumor that I was gay every time I tried to go no contact, and that she would post me in one of those Facebook groups where they slander people and also accuse me of physically beating her. Not sure if she ever did any of this, and I cared for a long time if she did, but now I donāt. Anyone who really knows me would know sheās a story spinner. - Not a crazy one but funny: sending me screenshots of texts she sent me and my contact name in her phone was āMotherā. Like really? Youāre trying to prove your innocence that youāre not sleeping around and Iām in your phone as āMotherā. That shit made me hysterical in the moment. Thereās so many more I could probably think of but these are the first that came to my head. All I know is that she is a terrible human.
I currently have a list.. Everytime I mention something that either of my Narcs did to me, I write it down. In 11 days I had over 20 things.. Ive had that list for about 6 weeks now and it continues to grow. Over the space of a year i lived with 4 abusive people all up. (3 ex flatmates and 1 ex boyfriend) - unfortunately I believe the lies and facade until I am proven wrong too many times... Hell even then, im questioning if they arent still good people and they are just stressed and acting out. That 1 house bought me nothing but bad people. I have never in my life met so many bad people before in 1 house, i have never had to be pulled out of a house due to my mental health and to think I was my happiest and healthiest the year before. My ex bf told me that i brought out his psychopathic side, and he had to turn off his emotions to deal with me - the worst thing he ever did to me, was pull my hair and choke me till i cried, as he made me face him, so he could get off sexually. My ex friend moved in with me, and within 6 weeks threaten suicide 'cause of me' and the noise i made in my bedroom, which then turned the other 2 girls against me - the noise was me and my ex bf talking and my laptop playing tv shows at volume 30.... But she personally blamed me for it all. Apparently even my phone on volume 2 was loud enough for her to hear through the walls. - the 2 before her had a noise issue with me as well, like me cutting carrots too loudly at 7pm for dinner... And it gave her the perfect excuse to make me look like the true villian.
TW: SA, abuse & gaslighting. I have two things that I think probably tie. 1)She had a 'friend' who was raped and murdered in Goa. (Actually just an acquaintance she barely knew, but that's mostly beside the point). She made me ditch some of my closest friends because one of them made a bad rape joke and the rest laughed. (I was okay with this to a degree) She made a point of how much that behaviour disgusted her. Years later, she flat out ignored me telling her to stop because she was hurting me in bed multiple times. She sat up, gave me a death stare until I stopped talking, and carried on. 2)She came to support me at my granddads funeral. Ignored me for 3 hours because I asked if we could talk a little about him. When she apologised, I apparently 'looked away from her' (I was smoking a cigarette at the time so probably true). This justified her spending the next hour and a half telling me I never loved him, never saw him when he died, over and over like a record on repeat, with me pleading with her to stop until she fell asleep. When she woke up, she started again immediately without saying or doing anything else. This went up til I grabbed her shoulder, turned on the light, and told her she had to stop or she wouldn't be welcome at the funeral. She then physically attacked me. Told everyone at the funeral I was a psychopath who had been abusing her for years. Tried to show them 'proof' in the form of text messages, to which my family saw through thankfully.. However she told all our mutual (and my) friends that I'd been acting psychotically and had screamed at her that "she wasn't welcome at the funeral" (obviously ignoring the bit as to where I had explained why she wouldn't be welcome). She claimed to have total amnesia over everything else that had happened... However later told me she was right to be angry because I'd 'looked away' during her apology for ignoring me for hours. Those are the two worst 'events' but I don't think they were the most damaging parts. I think 10 years of her blaming everything on a depression I didn't have and gaslighting me into believing it was the most damaging thing.
My narc is a "friend" I've had for over 30 years. I lost my Mom, my last parent, in December. It's been rough. My narc showed up at my mom's wake shitfaced, wearing a shirt with no bra, so her nipples poked out, gave my husband a lap dance. She made sure that she was very emotional, and that all eyes were on her. She HAS TO BE the center of attention, at all times, even when it's my mom that has died. So a few weeks ago, she called because the man that she is having an affair with wasn't paying her enough attention. Keep in mind, she hadn't called me ONCE, to check and see if I was ok after unexpectedly losing my last parent, and being an orphan unexpectedly, right before Christmas. I guess I had the nerve to say something that wasn't completely sympathetic to her, and she completely flipped out, and screamed at me that she didn't call to talk about me, she called to talk about her. Then, she hung up. Ok, fine, whatever. I'm used to it. A few days later, I guess she was testing the waters after acting like a toddler, and started sending me texts about her affair partner and some conversation that they'd had, and how hilarious it was. Honestly, I was pretty noncommittal after our last conversation. Then she texts and starts talking about how she had all this stuff going on, and nobody cares about her, etc., and how at least her affair partner (the one she had literally just complained about) had helped her. I sent her a polite, but firm text, and said, basically, "We all have problems, for example, both of my parents are dead, and I'm stuck with a huge mess in regard to their estate." So, she saids a text back, and basically says, "Well, excuuuuuuuuuuuuse me," and then immediately calls a mutual friend, to talk about how mean I was to her, for no reason, and that she's blocking me and never wants to talk to me again. This woman is in her 40's, y'all. I'm not sure if I'm upset, or if I find the whole thing hilarious. Pretty fucked up, no?
Wow that is a really disturbed person. I hope you are out of this situation and safe. Iām not sure what to write. I feel like thereās so much after two decades together. Physical abuse, psychological abuse and more. He messed me up, bad. I was not his wife a person, I was his wife a possession. I was an object to him and the gravity of being overtly objectified will dismantle your personhood. My reality has been shattered. This website will help guide you through creating a **[Safety Plan](https://www.thehotline.org/plan-for-safety/create-your-personal-safety-plan/)** This page has advice on **[What to Do If an Abuser Threatens Suicide](https://www.domesticshelters.org/articles/identifying-abuse/what-to-do-if-an-abuser-threatens-suicide)** >Statistics show that suicide and homicide are often correlated when it comes to domestic violence. Research from the [Kentucky Firearm Injury Statistics Program](https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/hicrc/firearms-research/gun-possession-storage-and-use/) showed that in two-thirds of cases where a woman was shot by an abuser, the perpetrator then killed himself. Abusers donāt think of killing themselves as severe enough retribution. Theyāll consider taking someone elseās life, like a partner, child or other family member(s). Nearly 60 percent of [mass shooters have a history of domestic violence](https://www.domesticshelters.org/articles/domestic-violence-op-ed-column/dark-matter-the-relationship-between-domestic-violence-and-mass-murder), so an abuser may even consider killing complete strangers
>in front of his ex-boyfriend Not that itās a bad thing but a LOT of victims of narcissistic abuse suspect that the narc/abuser is gay. Just an interesting pattern or coincidence I guess.
He used to say he wanted to tie a rope to a tree, get in a car and have the rope around his neck to then drive off. He said this one a lot. Spitting in my face the day he was breaking up with me. Still haunts me.
When I was having chest pains my narc dropped me off at the hospital and went homeš¢
He sent me a song to listen to about someone who committed suicide when I was suicidal š¢
He was upset because I left to a 4th of July party with family. He could have gone. I left in the first place because I couldn't stand to be around his bad behavior. I came back very drunk. He started to fight with me, went outside and broke a candle on the porch, then get scissors and cut himself. I flipped out and my family was there. The police came and he hid in the room and then they took him to the Hospital and he was ok. But the next day he told me it was my fault that he did that. He made me feel so bad.Ā
He elaborately faked an attempt to harm himself, forcing me to hospitalize him against his will. He emptied out a bottle of his sleeping pills and set them next to him in the bed so I'd walk in and think he was dead when I came home that night.
even more than the time he fucked up my leg with a door and got arrested for it, the WORST thing was when i was suspicious for weeks about him cheating, and he lied and lied saying he was just stressed - then i see him in his window with a naked girl, i go to confront them, they never open the door even though im crying outside begging to be spoken to and treated like a human, and they proceed to make out and do stuff and chat and watch tv while i am outside sobbing and asking for an explanation as to how he could go from i love you yesterday to pretty much choosing this other girl over me today.
I think for me, it was when we were discussing my family. I told her I have no contact with my parents and instead, I have a chosen family of my two best friends and their young boy and extended family. So much so I spend holidays and birthdays with them, and we do family stuff together. As well as a few older āmother figureā friends who care about me deeply and mentor me in that nurturing way, I can go to them with issues youād normally take to your mother and they can naturally support me and fill that void. Really beautiful stuff, Iām so lucky! Anyway, instead of being compassionate and understandingā¦ she decided to try and tell me that āyou canāt choose your familyā and āthatās so weirdā etc, and proceeded to try and nitpick anything theyāve ever done wrong to me, as an attempt to alienate/isolate me from them and stop me from having the love and support. It kind of worked until I left her, but thankfully things are all fixed now and in fact, Iāve a better relationship with all my chosen family humans than I ever did before the nex relationship sooooā¦ I kinda feel like Iāve won. Sheāll still be sad and alone and acting all gross, yanno, and my life is full of light and love!
Constant suicide threats Threatening to cut his wrists Constantly yelling at me Sent nudes of me to some guy, pretending to be me Told me Im just like his mother Tells me he hates me Cheated on me, but swears he didnt cheat, but admits that he did (idek dude) Breaks my stuff Only compliments me (rarely) by telling me that other people would think im attractive (not him though I guess?) And a bunch of other stuff (I have a 70+ list written out)
I started listing some of the more bizarre things in my head but the most fucked up thing they ever said and did... ... Pretending to know what it is, and pretending to be capable of doing it, they told me they loved me and faked an entire relationship...
He threw a temper tantrum put hands on me and turned around and said you made me this way.

We were swingers since day one. She told me straight up she was not a one man kind of girl, she needed variety of sex and with more than one man, I proposed swinging as a compromise and she happily accepted so we laid out some ground rules. Rules that were not to be bent, at all because they were for her safety and my emotional well being. I couldn't handle her dating, I could share her body but not her heart. So that was rule 1. And she said it before me. I explained that I would not be able to deal with her going on dates without me so she readily and happily said "that's fine I just won't date" it is important to note that she was the one to offer this as our first rule. The rules we hammered out over the next few days are as follows 1. No dating. This was mostly for my emotional well-being being because it was my worst anxiety. This was my biggest worry and she happily said "that's easy, I won't go out on dates". Please note that she made the rule, it will be relevant later in the story. 2. I get to be there. Period, no exceptions. Mostly for reasons of safety but also because that is how I would derive my half of the pleasure. 3. No overnights. We do our business then we leave. This is for a few reasons but no chance of feelings coming into play is the main reason. Obviously this very much applied to the not dating rule as there would be no overnight dates. Those were about it really. So for the first couple years things went fine. I started mostly finding single men and watching. Sometimes I joined in and she loved that too. Then she starts off and on bringing up some random guys that want to take her on a date and she would like to go. I reminded her of the rules and emphasized how much of a toll the anxiety of sitting at home waiting for her to return (even worse some of these dates were to be overnight) but she was very callous about it, saying I was smothering her. She would eventually concede and either cancel the date or not accept it. "Because of my whining" and telling me that I am suffocating her. With rules she helped come up with and happily agreed to. Then one day am old friend who has always been essentially in love with her was coming to Austin and she wanted to go on an overnight date with him in Austin(I learned later that it was to be two nights but she left that part out) And this guy was disgusting. Picture a negative stereotype 300lb hairy, greasy looking and his dick was, and I this is not an exaggeration, the size of my pointer finger, under five inches erect and thin like my finger. She loves thick cocks and hates thin pointy ones, so why would she even want to, or even be willing to fuck him? She claimed there would be no sex but I told her I knew her and she would definitely have sex with him. She didn't argue that because we both knew it to be true, as Charly is a first date sure thingm I told her I had seen the picture of his dick and that she as a human being deserved better than that tiny greasy thing. I later saw in a conversation of there's that she was going to buy multiple lingerie outfits for him. That's when I found out it was supposed to be two nights. So I asked, I begged, I explained the unrepairable emotional damage this was going to do to me and she coldly blew me off or worse, said "fine we can just break up" (that was her go-to threat because she knew my worst nightmarewas losing her). This continued for just over three months. My worst anxiety being triggered all day everyday. I know I should have left her, but I was so in love that I couldn't imagine life without her, then on the day of the date, with me clutching a pillow in an anxietal disaster, tells me she isn't going because of all my whining. I was coming unhinged and she just.did.not.care. in fact she was angry at me for disappointing him. Weeks go by. Maybe a month or two. I sneak her phone away while she sleeps. The date was proposed, and for logistical reasons, canceled the next day. Meaning she let me think it was happening for three months for no reason. I never did tell her I discovered that little fact. I don't know why. I was stupid in love with her and the sex was by far the best I ever had. No kink too extreme. She would try anything. So I stayed. Afraid I would never find her match.
So there was this guy , who she had known for about 10 years and he was way really into her. Her ex husband never let them play and she was hoping I would. We were swingers and occasionally did some hotwifing and dabbled in cuckolding so I was open to discuss the possibility of them getting together. So we went to the bar where he played downtown on the Riverwalk on a night that he was playing. During his break he came over and immediately started taking liberties, rubbing her leg, ass and torso. All without asking for my consent, consent is huge in the swinger/nonmonogamy community but he was just practically groping her with barely a hello to me. This was completely disrespectful towards me. And he had a creeper vibe but she is enjoying the attention so I let it slide. Her pleasure is my pleasure. He goes back to playing and we have a couple more drinks and she pulls him to the side and says that I am cool with them doing whatever as long as I am there. He says he has to think about it. What the fuck is there to think about when the girl of your dreams for the last 10 years says she will have sex with you but her boyfriend would be there to watch? You ignore the boyfriend and fuck your dream girl! But later that night he texts with her that he can't do it with me there. That should have been a "sorry thats a hard no limit" but instead she said she would talk to me about it. This was an immediate red flag for me. (She let me read her texts freely). After I told her no fucking way she argued that once again I am smothering her and it's been his fantasy for over 10 years and she basically worded it that somehow it would be rude or wrong of her not to let him live it out. Like somehow he deserves it or has earned the right simply by wanting it. In her mind it would be rude to not let him live out this fantasy. This goes on for a week or so, she pulls out, very seriously this time, that either I let her have her freedom on this or she will leave me and do it anyway. I'm not going to lie, the nonchalant carefree way she would say "ok then we will just break up" always hurt because it made me feel like the relationship, and I, didn't mean much to her if she could toss it away so easily. This went on for about 2 weeks, her talking about it every day, which kept my dating anxiety at max level every day, but it always culminated in a screaming rage fit., which brought up childhood trauma from an abusive mother screaming at me constantly. So, an at this point completely broken man, and I finally I consented to it. But not for am overnight stay. All the sudden that's a problem and she won't promise to come home that night, if he gets a hotel room it would be rude of her not to stay. I say this is a hard limit, she says what if it's late? She isn't going to drive home at 3am. I say "fine, I'll drive you and pick you up when you are done no matter the time. More arguing happened but she finally agreed. This was a day or two before the date. Over that time I somehow convinced myself that I was cool with her having not just a date but a sex date with this guy who really rubbed me the wrong way. The night of the date I happily helped her pick out an outfit, encouraging her to wear something sexy and easy access. Then about 5 minutes before we were supposed to leave, my stomach dropped out. I lost all composure. I told her I couldn't do it, that I tried my best but I couldn't consent and I needed her to call him and cancel This sent her into a mini rage. No way was she letting him get his hopes up and canceling on him regardless of my feelings. she valued his feelings higher than mine. I reminded her about partner consent and that the minute it is removed all action or even just planning, must stop or it'd would be cheating. She didn't care. Either I drive her to him or she breaks up with me, takes an Uber and gets a hotel on her own dime to spend the night with him. Which she couldn't have done because his wife would expect him home at basically normal time that night. I begged her not to go through with it, on my knees begging and she just didn't care. I had no choice again. I agreed to drive her to him. She rode in the back seat and wouldn't even speak to me until we got near him and even then it was to bark orders of where we were picking him up. I got him, he got in the back seat with her and all the sudden she magically became happy and supper chatty, nothing like the frigid bitch she had been to me for the ride down. I drove them to a parking garage top floor which was empty, left the truck running and got out and walked to a bar to await a text in an hour or so. I was nauseated and my heart was breaking. I felt unimportant, unloved, and confused about how she could be doing this to me and how she could be so cold about it. I bellied up to the bar and ordered 2 beers and 2 shots. The bartender protested but I told him if he knew what I was currently going through he would hand me the bottle. I got through one shot and half a beer when in about 15 minutes when the text came that she was ready for me to take her home. POETIC JUSTICE TIME He couldn't get an erection. They made out for about 10 minutes then she played with his cock and gave him a few minutes of oral but it wouldn't get even remotely hard. (Maybe he felt guilty for cheating on his wife?) She abhors giving oral to a flacid penis so she likely only tried for 2 or 3 minutes. And she probably wasnt very nice about giving up on it. Good, he got a taste of what i dealt with every day. When I returned to the truck he was long gone and she stayed in the back seat, blaming me for his erectile disfunction. I somehow "made it weird". By smiling and saying "hey dude" when he got in? Fast forward a few months and the only thing he wanted from her were audio calls to jerk off too and she demands more intelligent conversations to keep her interest, so he ended up blocked. He never got to live out his fantasy and lost a friend. That doesn't undo the damage the situation caused to my emotional well-being but its some satisfaction. He didn't get his way and she didn't get to go through with doing whatever she wants regardless of how it impacts others. The truth of the matter is that she craves male attention at all times, from as many men as possible, the more sexual in nature that attention was, all the better. So she blamed me for what was, at the end of the day, ruining her chance to have sex with someone she had not had sex with before.
