When it comes to what you think you know about a person and who they truly are you know nothing.
Many will only show you the parts of themselves that they want you to see. Remember that they can only share what they are ready to reveal to themselves.
You know only what people tell you
People will tell you only what they want you to know and only the version they want you to hear.
Human nature is to present the best version to fit into society and give people the best first impression.
Over time the truth of who a person truly is starts to be revealed once they’ve obtained their goal in securing a relationship with you, many will come to find a shift has occurred.
Suddenly things that were once relevant and meant the most fade, you start to see the person isn’t quite the same as they presented themselves to be when you first met and started your relationship.
Here is the kicker look back you will often come to find that the red flags and warning signs were all around.
The problem you loved them absolutely you didn’t see them for who they were….
In my case because of past trauma I believed the way I was being treated was my fault, something I had done wrong so I internalized it and believed I was unworthy, broken.
I felt If I could find the proper way to love, if I stoped being so me, if I would just do what they were asking and stopped being so disagreeable I would be enough.
So I made myself very small and I stopped fighting for me and I prayed they would go back to the person they were when it all began.
I never stopped to think they weren’t caring or loving me in the same way. Never did I imagine they weren’t there for love but only for what they could take from me to help them feel better about what they could never be.
If someone has to take something from you it is because they lack the ability to create it for themselves.. IF THEY TOOK FROM YOU ITS BECAUSE YOU ARE A GIFT BE GOOD TO YOURSELF.
So while I was pouring all my love and care into them they were more then happy to take it all with no regard to me, I begged and pleaded for the abusive behaviors to change but they didn’t cease.
When I was drained completely, there was no love for me there was no care or healing reciprocity there was nothing not even a thought.
I was discarded this is what happens when you fall in love with a narcissist you’re in it for love they’re in it for the challenge of the game.
Life is full of narcissistic ways it’s time we stop destroying others and calling it love.
Welcome to the battle of humanity and love this is end game.
