I Am Getting a Divorce

47 years old, married to a narcissist. I can’t do it anymore.
Thinking I need to get out.
Any help you can offer?

Go see a lawyer before you tell her and remove anything that means anything to you before hand. If she’s crazy she’ll destroy it.
Best of luck! Sorry about your marriage but yay new life awaits!!

Tons and tons of support groups, YouTube channels dedicated to the subject, and literature on this. Start joining and learning about their patterned behavior. Lots of great advice on this from people who have been through this. I promise I read so many stories that were identical to mine. This is going to be one of the biggest challenges you’ll ever face. A year later I thought I learned everything i needed to and had moved on, forgot some of the key lessons — he caught me during me a moment of weakness, I slipped and had to relearn from scratch.
Good luck and I hope you’re not really married to one

Get a good lawyer ,and if you are keeping the house. Change the locks,alarm codes,and the garage door codes as well.
Counseling and to be honest we are all narcissists. We are all deeply inherently selfish just as Eve was when tempted with the apple. We all want that apple.

It takes two people to make a relationship work. Marriage is a choice not an emotion.

Divorce is a difficult route. If you are male its even worse, because the family courts do not rule in men's favors.

I can tell you how I planned for my filing and getaway when I needed to get away. Our circumstances are not identical, so all of it may not be applicable. PM me if you want to talk.

Hope she don't see this or she'll beat you to it.
