Narcissists may say "sorry," but they won’t mean it. If someone truly regrets their actions, they wouldn’t treat you that way.
They justify and downplay their lies—they actually believe what they say.
Maintaining a false image that doesn’t exist is exhausting.
They will never tell you the whole truth. Instead, they minimize it or twist it to fit their narrative. Even when you know the truth, they won’t let you believe it.
"Only you!" They’ll tell you they’ve never felt this way about anyone else, that you’re their twin flame, their soulmate. But they’ve said the same to many others. It hurts, I know.
They always have backups—people lined up in case things don’t go as planned with you. They secured new options long before you even suspected. But don’t you know? "They’re just friends!"
Looking in the mirror through the mask they wear is painful for them. They hate what they see and will easily project that onto you, blaming you for everything.
You truly think they love you? How can someone love you while lying, cheating, manipulating, and even physically abusing you? And when you finally react, they blame you for your response to their abuse.
