Why do you think?

Why do you think the phrase "you know that isn't true" stops a narcissist in their tracks? They are already lying or at the very least exaggerating, why does that phrase stop them from continuing? I saw it on a TikTok and I've used it multiple times with my ex and each time he has no response, it ends the conversation.

It doesn't stop everyone if they love lying will make up stories and blame you

@SW-User I really didn't think it would work. It shows him trying to type a response, but every time he just gives up. It's so mind blowing I dreamed that I woke up to a long message of him trying to convince me I was wrong, but still nothing. Which is good, because I am way over his bullshit.
