The Future OW Showed Up to Rent His Apt: More Educated, Younger, Attractive, Aggresive with N Features

Imagine this. I'm at N's house; things have been bad for a number of years (6) and I'm sitting on his couch while we read from the Course in Miracles. His Associate rings the bell and brings in a person who wants to rent his apartment a few doors down. In walks an attractive tall woman, about 40 something. When she learns he owns a bunch of real estate in this particular wealthy town, she asks what he does for a living. She finds out he's a lawyer, and announces she doesn't like attorneys. Now she's really interested and begins to negotiate the rent amount. She announces she is going through a divorce, is a Psychologist and teaches at a college with focus on meditation. Next, she asks me if I meditate and if she should rent the apartment. Incredible!

Meanwhile, I can feel N planning his moves. She says she'll take the apt. and he's already got a hard on. I feel his excitement! She gets ready to leave and he jumps up from the couch, pounces on her like a wild animal and kisses her on both checks. She blushes and leaves. I wanted to vomit; I couldn't believe what the cat had drug in. That night, he asks me if he was too aggressive or something like that. He also makes a comment about me staying over, as if he didn't want me.

The universe gave the N another gift. Seems like it all falls in place for them. I felt so humiliated and insignificant. She was younger, more educated (I only have a M. A.) and definately hungry for status. Not only that, she gets to live next door to him...how convenient. My instinct proved correct. That happened two years ago and I havent' been invited back to his house since. He always made an excuse as to why I couldn't go over there. My time with him became less and less and I found myself making most of the contact while he started putting me off. He recently moved someone in and maybe it's her, I don't know.

I'm in my late 50's and had been seeing him for about 8 years. I went about as low as anyone can go. This shows how cold blooded these guys can be. I was simply replaced by someone better, with more status and a higher image.

I'm still working on getting over it all. I have good days and bad but, I keep on going. It's especially hard when this stuff happens so late in life. I thought I had finally found someone and he turns out to be so incredibly evil. He's living his happy little life and I'm doing inner child work and posting on N blogs. No self pity but, some anger and confusion. It simply wasn't meant to be and part of the problem was that I stood up to him, called him on his abuse, and fought back. Big mistake with a N. The punishments are more severe when you're a fighter. I have enough stuff for a book and a movie. Maybe following through would be the most healing thing I can do for myself at this point. Anyway, that's it for now.

I agree with Scoop...these

I agree with Scoop...these guys are not faithful and he will likely get bored and seek out new supply or new supply will find him. So you got to see the N infatuation at work. Know this...infatuation cannot be sustained. It is built around assumptions and expectations that are not true. Once those assumptions and expectations are proved to be false...once she fails to live up to his fantasy....he will move on. Here is the hard part....letting go of comparing yourself!!! It doesn't do you any favors what so ever. You are an amazing woman....you just have to detangle your worth from the world. HUGS.

Every time I hear these stories it breaks my heart. I actually feel that gut wrenching pain when your smacked in the face with this sudden horrible completely thoughtless act of selfishness. They get sooo excited when new supply just drops in their lap. Mine was just too lazy to seek it out, but one day he told me someone asked him out and I could see and feel the excitement in him. Imagine brand new unchartered supply. That's got to be the most exciting thing for them. Not the person, just the chase. For them, Tried and True= gum on their shoe.

don't feel bad

i was replaced by someone uglier, fatter, less educated, less money and vulgar - really nasty but younger - her pics on FB have her dress hiked up to her___ and legs apart - she has no neck and a big nose with lots of make up and teased hair like the 80's they just like new meat but do not love the better or the worse person...it does not matter who they choose

The instant devaulation is

The instant devaulation is gut renching , you can see it happen right infrount of your eyes and its like holding on to jelly slipping between your fingers . The narc sees people as the same as objects , you are a toaster to him or a toy he was playing with and he put the toy back on the shelf untill next time he wants to play with it , for now he has a shiny new one . The mantra is "the best indication of future behaviour is past behaviour " in time she will be devalued as you where , its a certainty .Its hard to feel sorry for the OW when she is as smug as your OW ,what with the meditating and all , but if you can try and not compare yourself to her as something better , age is neither here or there when it comes to a narc , it matters little to an abuser , they will even D&D a woman for a man if that man had something they wanted . Big love Scoop xx

Thanks Scoop

By the way, thanks for all your great posts...they help me alot. I was an object alright. I am reading Thich Nhat Hanh and he refers to a Zen master who was fond of saying "remove the object." The object is the person wer'e thinking about, the story. By removing the object we can come back to the body and feelings and stay with the energy and let go of thinking. Just another way of getting the N out of my brain. The age thing is something we all have to deal with but in my situation, it was especially painful. Western society is especially skilled at dishonoring the elderly and aging. You're right about them D & D'ing if the rewards are great. I know my N was in deep financial trouble and I'm sure his decision had to do with who could offer him the most in terms of tangibles. Maybe I'm lucky...I could have gone down with his ship had I been there.
