is it possible?

is it possible we are addicted to narcissists because they give us a dopamine euphoric rush because there is an element of danger about them (we know they are bad for us)... and they mentally take away all our other problems when we are with them because of this chemical release in our brains when they are showing us affection....

hence the classic scenario of the good girls liking bad boys??

I know that my N , when he contacts me out of the blue, or when we hang out, all my other worries and concerns are less... since it is an euphoric rush to be around him when he is nice to me....
the make up sex and the make up time for all the abuse is like an euphoric rush?
does anyone else know or agree with what I'm saying here...
I just was trying to figure this all out today and this seems to be a possibility for why the narcissists are so hard to let go of for us sweet caring good girls????

hopefully I will get your thoughts on this soon, take care!
