The Malignant Female – Understanding Female Narcissism

 

This is an article I have wanted to do for some time.

It’s one many males have asked for – and I also think it will be an interesting subject for women as well.

Over the years there have on occasion been men who have accused me of focusing on recovery for women only.

The truth is guys – I have NOT been leaving you out, because everything I produce in this Community is for ANYONE who has been abused.

And … even though I have thought about doing this article for a while, there is a reason why it hasn’t been a major priority.

Why Breaking No Contact Doesn’t Mean You Are Back To Square One

 

Breaking No Contact after days, weeks or even months of battling the urge to …. can feel so self-defeating.

Why Did We Fall For A Narcissist? Part 2

 

Last week, in Part One, we explored the reasons why we fell for a narcissist and why it can be very difficult to leave and stay away.

And why, in this Community, we DO struggle to end it and break free, whereas other people just don’t … even if they were initially hoodwinked by a narcissist.

This week, in Part Two, I want to take a deep dive into the understanding of specifically why we were highly susceptible to narcissists, and may have felt (or still feel) it’s almost impossible to leave.

Because it is my fullest intention – if this is your battle – to help free you from that.

Why Did We Fall For A Narcissist? Part 1

 

It’s a great question – and one that if we could answer truthfully could help inoculate ourselves against another narcissist, as well as provide the remedy for others so that they never have to experience one.

And the second, which is the healing premise of the Thriver Community, is … because I had unfinished business. There are some emotional gaps within me that the narcissist was able to infiltrate my boundaries with and hook me with.

I believe to an extent that both answers are true.

But … there is a very important distinction and truth that also needs to be acknowledged here.
