These days I relish the silent treatment. That is when I don’t have to hear his voice which I have come to loath. He’s not insulting. He’s not controlling. He doesn’t even eyeball me. I’m dismissed thank God! When his silent treatment isn’t used against me, (so he thinks) for quite awhile I now will piss him off on purpose just to shut him the f up. It’s so funny to watch him look for reasons to enter my vicinity so he can “punish” me. LOL. Sometimes I’m so happy that I don’t have to hear anything he wants to say. And that he is now my clown because I have turned the table to my favor. My needs. And he has no clue. I want to laugh in his face and tell him I make him silent so I don’t have to listen to the sound of his voice for awhile but I have to bite my tongue and not blow it for myself.

Itโ€™s a clusterf*<! of crazy making pain and confusion. And then thereโ€™s the clowns who make inappropriate slurs, abuse substances, make death threats and sexually assault and think no one has the right to ignore them. ๐Ÿฅด

I guess it’s really hard to figure out how to love yourself. I’m a nurse. I’ve taken care of people my whole life. I feel useless and purposeless if I’m not. All I’ve ever wanted was to “belong”. And it seems as though I choose emotionally unavailable men everytime. Right now I feel pretty hopeless. Dont enjoy life anymore. Hoping someone can help.

Hold onto that thought all those of you who can never imagine feeling that way right now. It WILL happen.

Listen to Mel and trust her, she will absolutely show you the way out.

Love to you all. x

I am sat at work. shaking, in tears at what you are writing about life with a narccisst, ONLY YOU have explained it so so so so accurately as to what my life is. Never have I read anything that has articulated and explained EXACTLY what I am dealing with past 20 years.
I am speechless and I thank you so much from my soul. Melanie, I want to write on this page exactly what has been happening to me over 20 years, i am still with him. can I do that .I am so shocked at what you have written, nobody, not even myself was ever able to explain it. I am truly truly so grateful to you. God bless you, and God bless us all on this page.
