Appreciation of Children with the Narc

As I read about the trials and difficulties of co-parenting with a Sociopath, my heart goes out to you,,you have to be stronger than iron clad to deal with these guys,,and hope you stand firm when it comes to what you want and need.

I hope also, that you have at the same time a gratitude for your children,,

I have always dreamed of having a family, chilcren, and have none.

My exN was,,as I thought,and lead me to believe that he would be the father of my children,,as he told me he would be willing to "reverse his V"...

He told me that in the beginning of our relationship, and as our relationship "grew" he lured me into believing that we were to "build a life together".

I thought he was the perfect mate for me, and to be the Father of my children...

To date, I have yet to hold the hand of my child, and doubt I will ever get to shake the hand of my child,,

It is devastating to be told such lies, and worse.

If you have children, I hope you all find the patience to deal with the audacity of the sociopath, and seek the best for your children.

Dear Amazed....I'm sorry

Dear Amazed....I'm sorry that your dream of children was never realized. And thank you for your thoughts of support. I am thankful each and every day for my kids. While only one of my four is with the ExN, because he impacts me so much, it in the end impacts all of us. And the older three spent 7 yrs in the household with him. Just this morning as I was getting my coffee, I was telling myself that I want to focus on enjoying them more. They are amazing people. And it's because of the kids I even made it out. I probably would've given up. I hope some how you can build a family of your own. You obviously have a lot of love to give.

So heartbreaking to read your post. Yes, the same situation with me. My daughters worshipped this man. I couldn't believe it. They had been so hurt by their father's abuse since they were born. That they could love a man again, trust a man again, gave me such joy and hope. He loved them so much. Then, poof! Gone. And not just gone but nasty. When I'd say, please talk to them, please come see them, they don't know why you're gone, he'd say, "Oh, please." or "They need to grow up." About the baby: it was something we both said we wanted from the beginning: our own child. I was 39 when we met. Even two weeks ago I asked if he would get another foster child if his went back home, and he said, "I want a baby with you SOMEDAY." I said, as if he was four, "I'm 43 years old. Make sure you tell God to make me fertile when you're ready." I had already told him last year that my fertility was almost nonexistent, that my doctor said, "Do it now." The rules of the universe just don't apply. The others are right: These men are NOT father material.

Freakin unbelievable isn't it? Mine actually acted like he enjoyed the boys...... did so many things with them, and their friends , for the longest time! He sincerely seemed to care about their well being...... 8 years he was their father figure. They adored him, and we all learned to tiptoe around the moods...... I would never want them to know this was said, but before he left, he told me "they're not even my blood". DUH?????????? So 8 yrs later he decided that would matter????????????? He has forgotten them, and that's the only thing that hurts worse than he's forgotten me. Trash. Thrown out like trash. So glad mine didn't reproduce!!! Then there would be more psychos! Maybe we could train dogs to be psycho sniffers????? Yeah! Then we make them all get vasectomies and lobotomies!!!!!

It is heartbreaking...

It's bad enough to have your heartbroken by them but its ten times harder to see your children's hearts broken as well. They value no one. I'm sorry amazed. Maybe the man upstairs has something else planned for you. If its any comfort, be glad that a child didn't have to endure the same pain he put you through...

sigh...this was heartbreaking to read...I know it wasn't your intent, but it made me sad to know because of this disgusting creature, you didn't have some of those dreams realized. I promise that if you did have a child WITH him, it would have been such a struggle. As a child of an N mother, it would have been okay with me if my dad just raised us alone. I think because of this, I was determined to be different with my kids, and shower them with 'I love you's' and hugs whenever I could. My ex asked me to marry him, painted a beautiful picture of our life together to come, then just disappeared. The dream was gone as if I just woke up from sleeping. In the end, I feel thankful we were not married after all. I'm so sorry for all of your pain, and for everyone here who has suffered so profoundly... (hugs to you)

Hi, That is so horrible for you, they know the dreams to target and they really do well at it. Can you have a child someday? I have a child with exN and I want there to be no contact, I don't know how I can do this. I may have to move one day and not say where. I am trying to avoid court as long as possible. My older boy was sucked in and dropped but he said that he never 'got' him as he sussed him out. I am lucky he has a hunch about people. He was always trying to tell me but I couldn't see it. I am very grateful for my children, now he just needs to die and all will be perfect.
