It’s scary how people enable chaotic narcs.
My ex made Jack look almost stable. I stood my ground and was honest with her which caused constant needless drama, I stayed far longer than I wanted to because of her kid. When I eventually LEFT I pleaded with her to stay single, work on herself and focus on her kid and stop the chaotic relationship rollercoaster she was dragging her on. She assured me she would.
Within days she was seeing someone else. A couple of months later she got engaged to a new woman. Then she hoovered her ex fiancé who she’d accused of abusing her. When she bit she rejected her for a girl 25 years younger than her who she’d met on tiktok who she declared the love of her life. That ended a couple of months later when she cheated on her and less than 4 months later she married her bit on the side. That was all in the space of a year and it was all plastered over social media
I was horrified but her family and friends were all ‘You’re the strongest person I know’ ‘You deserve to be happy’ ‘You’re amazing’ etc. Nobody ever challenges her. They treat her like a vulnerable victim instead of a selfish adult who is massively damaging her child.
I suspect that when people have tried to talk to her in the past she has kicked up such a fuss that they keep quiet for fear of what might happen and the cycle just continues unchallenged.
That’s why I can never feel sorry for Jack. There is a boy who must sit there wondering what is wrong with him because his Mum isn’t interested in him. Exes who’ve been dragged along on a rollercoaster journey of gaslighting and cognitive dissonance who will be sat there thinking what the fuck has just happened. Vulnerable people sending her money because she’s rattled the tip jar and they are worried that she needs help. People who are struggling with their mental health/poverty/addiction who are reading her Twitter account as she is an ‘expert’ and they are looking for guidance.
It’s the damage that narcissists do to those around them.
It's odd she's this cut up about a few month relationship. She seems to move very fast. I get being alittle miffed especially if you really liked them but I mean come on its was hardly Romeo and Juliet.
Narcs move at lightening speed in relationships. They lovebomb like crazy and are very convincing. Until the day when you suddenly realise the reason why you’re feeling like crap is because you’re being gaslit and manipulated constantly. When it ends they are devastated. For 5 minutes until they have snared their next victim.
