Trying to join but cant??
You are here! We are here for you
Hey - thank you....
Difficult to express - but searching online about my situation has been like I wrote the pieces myself which is comforting but a shock at the same time?
@brook1964 Yes, I know the realization. It’s almost like, whoa that’s what it’s called. I’m not craycray after all. Welcome. The people here are here for you.Glad you found us.
Thank you....I will check out the site now
Hey are you there?
It's like some one finally understands. I've felt so alone. Friends I've had for 30 plus years (also know my ex partner) have turned against me in all this. It feels too complicated to share.....
Hi Brook1964! Welcome to the site. You are now home, because the people here will help you keep your sanity in a way that relatives and other-world friends cannot.
NOTHING is too complicated to share, believe me. When you have a quiet moment and the emotional level is running high, sit down and write about your feelings and your experiences - HERE, on this website. Just the act of putting your experiences into words will be a big step in the direction toward recovery. And once you do that, many others will comment, offer support, and commiserate with you.
We KNOW what you went through, nice lady, and you are no longer alone. Your friends haven’t necessarily turned against you, they just can’t understand. You’ll need to start thinking about them as being in another dimension, which is why I refer to them as “other-world friends”.
Start by sharing with us how you feel today. We know how it feels to hold on to our loving feelings for our narcs, in spite of our being betrayed, abused, and emotionally tortured. And yes, we know about wanting to know the dirty details that can only hurt you, but sometimes you just have to know. It’s all part of withdrawal from a relationship with a narc, and every bit as painful as kicking a drug addiction.
Yes - that's what i meant by some one finally understands. The story is 8 years worth and it's finally ended but not by me by him and that's where I'm struggling even though I have ended it many times and been sucked back in but this time I know he has moved on to someone more permanent as ridiculous as that sounds and I know that it is, I'm really struggling with it..
I know and I have blocked all ways of contact but why do I want confirmation that he has someone else?
The whole thing is crazy. I have moments of clarity and they're short lived and go back to feeling I'm actually missing this person.
Thank you for responding :)
So much to process eh? I'm just questioning why now but I guess it's taken him this long to find the "perfect" one....ouch
@brook1964 I want to get back to who I was and see how ridiculous this whole thing is
@Yellowrose10 Thank you
