Back to day 1 :(

So this is day 1.

Everyone who has been following my story will know that I got hoovered back in when he threatened to tell hub. He is virtually blackmailing me to meet him tonight as he is in my town.

I am not going. I feel sick inside but I am not going.

I hate this cog diss..why do I miss him when he has been so awful.

Honesty here I was tempted to go. My friend has begged me not to..she thinks he will physically hurt me. I am a real mess and am trying to get in with Goldie if she can fit me in.

You don't 'miss' the N, you

You don't 'miss' the N, you are an addict who misses a hit of your drug of choice. Ns set up an addictive dynamic with their prey. Or you can think of it as a conditioned lab rat scenario. If you think of it in these terms it loses the fantasy element quickly. Refer to your list of all the awful things he's said/done. I remember you had concerns a list may be discovered but you don't need to keep it. You can produce a Word document, type the list, read over and not save and then repeat this action as often as necessary. NC = sanity/peace/self respect. The Betrayal Bond: Breaking Free of Exploitive Relationships: p.199-200 of the link below mentions lab rats who keep returning again and again to a box that's familiar but gives them an electric shock (the N) when faced with stress from an unfamiliar source (freedom). http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=pEdMu4JVsc8C&printsec=frontcover&source=gbs_ge_summary_r&cad=0#v=onepage&q&f=false Giving Narcissists a Second Chance: Sam Vaknin http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKClN8rnj4o Why Victims of Narcissists Can't Let Go the Narcissist?

Thanks for those posts, looked at so many its hard to pinpoint the 'good ones' to refresh memory. My mind knows he is a horrible man and if I met him tonight I would likely come away marked..bruises/bites. But it just feels like withdrawal..its so fucked up!
