I Am In Love With A Narcissist

[He Doesn't Care

He doesn't care that with every argument I lose a piece of myself.

He doesn't care that the things he doesn't do hurt me, hurt my heart.

He says he loves, but he loves himself more.

He says he needs me but his actions say something different.

He doesn't care about the tears I've cried, the pain my heart is in.

What happens in his world is far more important, far more painful , far more important.

I am nothing to him. So how can I care & love him when he can't offer me the same?

How can I be in such turmoil over someone that just doesn't care.

I feel your pain, really I do. I hope you've managed to get over him. I don't know if people like that can change. How can you force someone to care? I hope that one way or another, you've somehow managed to get to a better place now, as I can see that this is an old post.

If you have found a way to get over this guy, let me know, as I'm suffering in the same way. The narcissist that I've fallen in love with, I haven't heard from in three weeks now. I've asked him some questions that I really need the answers to, but the most important questions, he can't or won't answer.

Now I'm afraid that I pushed him too far the last time we talked, and I'll probably never hear from him again. But why should I always be the one who is worried about losing him because I've said or done something wrong. Shouldn't he be equally worried about losing my friendship? I know that we could never be anything more than friends, because of the situation. But his friendship really did come to mean a lot to me last year, and now I'm devastated that he doesn't seem to care anymore. Or maybe he never did, and he just pretended to care, until he got what he wanted and then forgot all about me. ;(

I just don't understand why he doesn't realize what he could be losing by treating me this way. I'm a good person, and I can be a very good friend. And I think I've shown that. But apparently he sees most of his friends as disposable. But there are some that he chooses to treat with respect and keep around, and that makes it all the harder not to take this personally. It's so hard not to ask what's wrong with me, why he chose to treat me this way, when he obviously values others so much more.

I’m still in the relationship/friendship .. not even sure what to call it at this point.
I can totally understand all you are saying and feeling.
It truly is a cycle for them. I feel I bend over backwards all the time to accommodate everything and just the smallest ask and he loses it, or he’s overwhelmed and can’t seem to balance much.
I’m so sorry you are going through this. It’s so hard and it really does take a piece of your heart.
Have you reached out to him for answers ?
I know for me it’s hard to wait and I’d like him to be more responsive but I think he takes his time of purpose to respond most narcissist do.
I’m wishing you a sense of peace while this plays out because I know how hard it is.

@Snowbunny1002 I'm sorry to hear that you're still apparently being hurt by this person. Thank you, I'm going to try everything I can think of to get some peace. We'll see what happens.

@Snowbunny1002 Perhaps I should post the rest of my response here, though it is rather personal. I understand that some people aren't comfortable receiving private messages right away. Let me know. Thanks.

@TeresaRudolph71 I’m ok receiving messages. I’m not on SW a lot but try to pop in :)

Sometimes it’s best to take control and just walk away . Very hard thing to do .
TeresaRudolph71 · 51-55, F
@Autumnday Yes, though that can be very hard, especially when you've been involved with the person for a long time and they've come to mean a great deal to you.

I don't know about the relationship the person who posted this is involved in, but sometimes the hardest thing to accept is that something that came to mean so much wasn't even real, it was all a big lie. That's something that I will probably have to come to terms with myself, though I have been (probably foolishly) clinging to the hope that there was (and still perhaps is) something real there.

is this just a poem, or a true story?

@Snowbunny1002 sorry to hear. My daughter divorced her husband if 8 years over that. It was awful, but now she is so happy.
Snowbunny1002 · 61-69, F
Thank you so much. This was over 2 yrs ago and I have since moved on :). @samueltyler2

@Snowbunny1002 good for you. My daughter's divorce was messy, but she and her 2 girls are now in a good place.
