"...not a bad person..."

Can you believe he actually stated this to me in an email this morning? "Contrary to what seems to be the sentiment, I am not the bad guy. I have done bad things but am not a bad person.".............

Oh! That's right! In his eyes he's God! He can do all sorts of bad things but not be a bad person, not if he does it!

He came to the house yesterday to get some more of his things. He had on his good mask, and it upset me terribly. Today is a new day, and back to NC as best is possible. There is no doubt it is the only cure from these species. This guy is a charismatic psychopath, and obvious narcissist.

He can go around breaking up families, coveting what everyone else has, stealing wives from husbands , and children, then dumping them leaving them completely helpless, and he's not a bad guy? Wonder what Bible he reads?
I was floored by the way he could stare at me straight faced while I cry, and lie lie lie..with such finesse and perfection! Even when I told him not to insult my intelligence, he lied. Then I presented to him the obvious... I said" you know I'm surprised after all the legal threats you received from my ex, and all that we went through with our adultery, that you would turn around and do the same thing again?"...Then he said.." I have thought about that."...Stupid Butt! He had just denied it to me! They lie so much they can't even keep their own lies straight....

Read Timoty 2, Chapter 3. DO NOT GO NEAR THEM!

I would like your opinion. Is he a bad person?

Not an a$%^hole

Something my last exN/psycho told me. He was very proud that no one has ever called him an Ahole. Part of building up his good guy image for me. Funny, upon reflection, what he actually said was "No one has ever said ______ (narc's name,) you are and AHole." So, he wasn't actually saying he wasn't one, just never called one to his face. (yeah, he would refer to himself in third person a lot. . . . hmmmmmm) All of the things he told me about the reasons he ended his prev relationships pointed at him being an extreme Ahole, but I was too hypnotized at the time to allow myself to believe that. I wanted to believe the good guy image. It's really amazing how when they lie to you in the beginning, you fall for it, wanting so much to believe that he really isn't a bad guy, but somewhere underneath, you know it's B.S. You know it's too good to be true, but it's so romantic at the time. After you finally see him for what he is, there really is no going back, so when he does say he "isn't a bad guy," it's like Freddy Kruger saying he isn't a monster. Spell is broken...

dear gullablegull's N

Of course you are not a bad person. You are intellegent. You are handsome. You are outstanding. You are God. You are magnificant. You are wonderful. You do fabulous things. Everyone loves you! This is an example of what you should say to him. Why? Because that's what he hears anyway. Any words to him are supply. Speaking of good guys, my exNH used to say, "What are you going to do? Tell people I DON'T hit you?" Yes N. That's what I tell people. I tell them you hit me a lot in a more psychotic way than with a fist. The wounds go deeper. Oh yeah, also N is so good in fact that he had an affair and ruined our 7 year marriage so that I could "save face" and he would "be the bad guy". Wasn't that nice of the little narcy? http://hubpages.com/hub/Married-to-a-Narcissist?preview nolongercontrolled

He is actually right. He is NOT a "bad person"

Because 1.) he is EVIL, not merely "bad" and 2.) he is not a PERSON. You have to be human to be a "person" and they are not human. You have to have a soul to be a person. They have no soul. So, technically, he is not a "bad person." He is an "evil, non-human creature."

Oh YES, sure we can believe it. Here's just some examples of a direct quotes from an e-mails mine sent touting the same thing: "I'm not a bad man....I'm not a criminal, I'm not evil, don't do drugs, don't drink, I'm not violent, I'm not cold, I'm not mean or malicious..." And another ~ "I'm not a horrible person"..."never abusive".... Then it goes on to guilt trip me about all the things he's forgiven me for, all that he'd done for me...HUH??? Alrighty then. It's amazing to see such total Bulls*** in black and white, right there in front of you...which is just more evidence of their total delusional thinking.

books

Last time I was in Barnes & Nobel, couldn't find ONE book on N's, P's, S's...there were some on BPD, OCD, bipolar, and one for survivors of childhood abuse. -But- wouldn't ya know it, plenty of crap on seduction. As a matter of fact, "The Art of Seduction" was placed faced-out, along with whatever other crap book that author wrote, eye level and easy to find. I actually mentioned it to an employee, but from her reaction, didn't seem to be that concerned. I knew it wouldn't make a difference, but at least I said something.

Seduction Book

I bought and read that whole book in an effort to understand what happened to me. I thought it was fascinating, and I could definitely see that my narc used many of the techniques that the book describes. It must just come natural to them because it would be way too hard to remember all the strategies and apply them. I am not sure it is something that I could learn to do even if I studied the book.

I own the book. I remember

I own the book. I remember reading about "The Art of Seduction" by Robert Greene in Cosmopolitan...there was a controversy about it and people were trying to get it banned because it used techniques that cult leaders used to brainwash victims. I bought it and read it, I absorbed it superficially, never really taking it seriously...little would I know 3 years later someone would use these very techniques on me and it would work.

The Seducer's Victims

excerpt from "The Art of Seduction" by Robert Greene the seducer's victims- eighteen types "the people around you are all potential victims of a seduction, but first you must know what type of victim you are dealing with. Victims are categorized by what they feel they are missing in life-adventure, attention,romance,a naughty experience, mental or physical stimulation,etc. Once you identify their type, you have the necessary ingredients for a seduction: you will be the one to give them what they lack and cannot get on their own. In studying potential victims, learn to see the reality behind the appearance. A timid person may yearn to be the star; a prude may long for a transgressive thrill. Never try to seduce your own type. the siren- people of this type were once happy go lucky seducers themselves but they grew up and the beauty faded the disappointed dreamer- this type makes excellent victims the pampered royal-these were spoiled children. to seduce this type, be ready to provide a lot of distraction, new places to visit, novel experiences, color, spectacle.. the new prude-the new prude is secretly oppressed by their correctness and long to transgress the crushed star the novice the conquerer the exotic fetishist the drama queen the professor the beauty the aging baby the rescuer the roue the idol worshiper the sensualist the lonely leader the floating gender it then proceeds to tell you how to pinpoint which type of victim you have to put into one of the above categories and begins to tell you how to seduce and hook them. I cant believe I had this book and only took it with a grain of salt when I read it, I barely even remembered i had it. Now going back and rereading it, it is damn near mezmerizing to see how each tactic was used on me. I wonder which category N put me in..oh, well it worked none the less..

That just goes to show you how good these guys are at what they do! You red the book, knew about the techniques they use, and he still got to you. Of course though, the N/P's didn't have to learn it in a book. It is just second nature to them.

Quote from the book in the

Quote from the book in the "Disenchantment" chapter: "Danger follows in the aftermath of a successful seduction. After emotions have reached a pitch, they often swing in the opposite direction-toward lassitude, distrust, disappointment. Beware of the long, drawn out good by; insecure, the victim will cling and claw, and both sides will suffer. If you are to part, make the sacrifice swift and sudden. If necessary, deliberately break the spell you have created. If you are to stay in the relationship, beware of flagging of energy, a creeping familiarity that will spoil the fantasy. If the game is to go on, a second seduction is required. Never let the person take you for granted-use absence, create pain and conflict, to keep the seduced on tenderhooks."

Wierd!

I remember reading that part! I thought at the time it seemed so cruel and without emotion. I understand trying to seduce because you are attracted to someone and you want to make them attracted to you also, but to seduce someone knowing you will intentionally break their heart is not only mean, IT"S WEIRD! It just seems to go against nature to not want love in your life.

exactly Barbara..reminds me

exactly Barbara..reminds me of the N's withdrawal. "keeping your targets emotional will both weaken them and heighten the drama of the moment. And the best way to keep them at an emotional pitch is by infecting them with emotions of your own. People are very susceptible to the moods of those around them; this is particularly acute at the latter stages of seduction, when resistance is low and the target has fallen under your spell. At this point of the bold move, learn to infect your target with whatever emotional mood you require. You want access to the targets subconcious, which is best obtained by infecting them with emotions, bypassing their conscious ability to resist."
