Narcissists are manipulative charmers.

This. They are heavily invested in having a good facade and work hard to make people think they're great. It can take years for the mask to slip. And then at first, you make excuses. Later you feel trapped or beaten down.

I do believe you people need to learn what a narcissist is.

"Narcissistic personality disorder is a mental disorder in which people have an inflated sense of their own importance, a deep need for admiration and a lack of empathy for others. But behind this mask of ultraconfidence lies a fragile self-esteem that's vulnerable to the slightest criticism."


I think a lot of people confuse a narcissist and an extremely selfish/self-centered person. Both are not fun to be around but they tend to be two very different things sort of like psychopath vs sociopath.

Do you have children together? If not, let your lawyer do all the work in handling the divorce and stop engaging your ex.

This. This book saved me and helped me feel sane.

Also, counseling. It's necessary.

Like they say, love is blind. Remember the hot guy in HS that everyone wanted? Overrated. The aggressive girl probably got him and now she's paying the price.
