Ready to rewrite the script? Let’s go!
- Love Bombing: The Shiny Bait 🎆
At first, they’re a moving fairy tale. The gifts, the attention, the compliments—until you’re hooked. Realize that overwhelming affection isn’t love; It’s control wrapped in glitter.
- Manipulation: The Reality Changer 🔄
“You’re overreacting.” “That never happened.” If you feel like you’re questioning your memory, you’re not crazy—they’re playing you. Keep a journal to put yourself in the facts.
- The Silent Treatment: The Emotional Blackout 🚫
Narcissists use silence as a weapon, making you feel invisible. Don’t chase them—silence can be your power, too. Shift your focus to yourself instead.
- Triangulation: The Control Tool 🎭
They pit you against others, making you feel insecure. Don’t play their game. Build your self-esteem by remembering that you’re not in competition—you’re enough just the way you are.
- Vacuuming: The Comeback Trap 🌪️
When you’re ready to move on, they come back with promises of change. Stay strong. Remember: Words are cheap, actions are proof.
- Projection: Their Guilt, Your Problem 🎯
They blame you for their behavior, and flip the script to make you feel guilty. Hold up the mirror to them – what they accuse you of often reveals their own flaws.
- Control Through Chaos: The Constant Storm 🌩️
They thrive on creating confusion. One moment, they’re kind; the next, they’re cold. Refuse to dance in their storm. Find calm in your own clarity.
- Pretending to be the victim: The empathy card 🃏
Narcissists love to play the victim. Don’t let their crocodile tears drag you down. Empathy is your strength, but boundaries are your shield.
- Using Your Fears: The Manipulative Map 🗺️
They’ll exploit your insecurities to gain control. Flip the script – acknowledge your fears, address them, and deny them the ability to use them against you.
- Financial Manipulation: The Golden Chains 💳
They may control money to trap you. Start creating your own financial independence – freedom isn’t just emotional; it’s practical.
- The “You Owe Me” Game: The Debt That Never Ends 💸
They’ll remind you of every little thing they’ve ever done for you. Don’t be fooled. Relationships aren’t transactions, they’re partnerships.
- Rewriting History: The Memory Editor 📝
They’ll twist past events to fit their narrative. Stay grounded in your truth, and don’t participate in their revised storytelling.
- Isolation: The Loneliness Trap 🚪
They subtly (or not) push you away from friends and family. Reconnect with your tribe—they’re your lifeline back to reality.
- Promises of Change: Empty Words 📜
“I’ll change, I swear.” Have you heard that? Narcissists rarely change, so stop waiting for them to and focus on changing your situation.
- Emotional Load: The Drama Magnet 🎢
They draw you into their constant drama, leaving you emotionally drained. Protect your peace by getting off their rollercoaster.
- Jealousy Tactics: The Seed of Insecurity 🌱
They create situations that make you feel jealous, just to keep you on edge. Realize that this is their fear of losing control, not your inadequacy.
- Criticism disguised as advice: A trust buster ✂️
Their “constructive criticism” often sounds more destructive than helpful. Filter their words – real advice builds you up, not destroys you.
- Blame: The ultimate evasion game 🏐
Nothing is ever their fault – it’s always yours. Stop blaming them and leave it where it belongs: on them.
- Overpromising, underdelivering: A trust buster game 🎡
Big words, little action. Don’t let their big promises blind you to their failure to deliver.
- The final card: Making you doubt yourself 🤔
They will question your choices, your dreams, and your worth. Remember, their goal is to control. Don’t let their doubts become your reality.
