Hello Roomies... As I start to post this particular subject, I can't emphasize enough how stunning it is to find that you have been in love with a narcissist...
The term "narcissism" falls from an old myth where a guy named "Narcissus" falls in love with his own reflection in a pond and is unable to ever love anyone but himself thereafter... It sounds simple and harmless enough but the reality is that meeting and falling in love with someone who has this personality disorder, MAY turn your world upside down and leave you so devastated that you feel you can never find your way back to reality.
If your spirit is howling after you interract with your loved one, you MAY be with a narcissist... If life around that person you love is unpredictable and leaves you feeling like you need to re-vamp your entire lifestyle, you MAY be with a narcissist... If you are constantly feeling that you're being "played" like a fine-tuned fiddle... you MAY be with a narcissist...
There will be a series of postings in this thread to help you determine if narcissism is destroying your life... Or even if after your relationship with a narcissist has ended, you feel like you are completely and utterly incapable of putting your own rubber on the road again...
I hope this information will be as helpful to you as it has been to me in my own love of a man with narcissist personality disorder...
With faith and hope,
Silken
