As in any relationship, your intuition is always on high alert.
There’s a vague feeling of fear, curiosity, or perhaps uncertainty in your stomach.
Are they telling the truth? Am I supposed to feel this way all the time? Why do I always doubt my partner, is this normal?
But when it comes to dating a narcissist, even the strongest intuitive people can fall apart because they don’t listen to their intuition.
It is alarmingly common for them to find themselves in relationships with this type of person.
Narcissists have a crazy way of hiding all our biggest fears and warning signs while we’re in relationships.
They are masters of manipulation and will always find a way to win you back even when you know the best decision is to break up.
The important thing to remember with narcissists is that they will do everything in their power to get you back even when your gut is telling you to leave.
It’s easy to mistake their deception for genuine remorse or a desire to make it work.
They take these opportunities to manipulate your emotions especially when you feel vulnerable or reflective.
Hopefully this trick will calm you down and get you back to where they want you.
But what kinds of things will they say to get you back?
Don’t worry, I’ve got you covered!
- If they say “I’ve decided to start getting help” after a fight
They may say they are looking for professional treatment but the truth is they probably are not.
They may just say it so you can feel sympathy and trick you into thinking they are making an effort to change.
- If he says “I don’t love him” when you accuse him of cheating
They are just trying to sweep their infidelity under the rug and are setting themselves up for the spotlight on the other person.
This might make the other person think, “If they’re cheating on me, it’s because I’m not desirable enough.”
This will create insecurities within themselves that will keep them attracted to the other person for fear of not finding someone else.
- If they say, “Let’s be friends” after the relationship ends
They really want you to be friends with benefits.
Again, after they manipulated you into questioning your self-worth.
They know that you will be weak enough to give in to them again and again.

- If they say, “I’ll make it up to you” after any kind of confrontation
Unfortunately, they are not cooperative, tolerant, sympathetic or committed to change.
They’re basically saying this to get you back on their good side. And also to show that they are making an effort to try when in reality they are just trying to silence you.
