All About Him Forum

Hi All,

I am new to this forum, like most of those who have gone through.

I was in love with a colleague at work, he did the typical idealise, devalue and discard cycle.

First 3 month were wonderful and then his personality issues started creeping. Lots of lies and hiding of information. He told me that he was done with his ex but was still in touch with her everyday. His excuse was that she has cancer. I tolerated and believed that he genuinely meant to support her health.

Hi everybody,
I was gathering information to better prepare myself with my judicial case conference at the Supreme Court and happened to find this forum; I am in the process of divorce and my former spouse is seeking full custody and child support.

Do you know what narcissistic personality disorder is? Would you be able to spot it if you had to? For most people, their belief is that narcissism is “easy” to spot because laymen and pop psychology characterize narcissism as: selfish ambition, arrogance, cockiness, inconsideration for others, and a strong desire to be at the top of the game. But narcissism is truly difficult to spot in everyday life because some of the kindest and nicest people could be a narcissist. Narcissism doesn’t always shine through the moment you meet someone.

Hi Everyone,

So, I'm sure I'm not the first to have this particular problem, but I'm having trouble working through it. The thing is, my ex and I broke up 3 years ago, and though he tried to get back with me, it was always short lived. A day or two after making sure I was hooked again, he would discard me. I began to feel like it was a game to him, to be honest, and I had the strength to break it off completely after a few months of that (and therapy, and outraged friends who wanted to kill him).

Sorry this may be a long post but just need some help understanding and support

Will try and keep it short. Me and by other half have been together for 5 years. There is a 10 year age gap he is 24 I and older. We both fell in love so quickly but over the last years he has cheated on me numerous times (17 I know of) and dumped me numerous times in the most obscene and horrible ways.

Overt narcissism is the most obvious of narcissistic personality disorders. The overt narcissistic personality is arrogant, boastful and demanding. This narcissistic personality is often an exhibitionist, and can be offended if not fed energy and attention, or as a result of receiving criticism or slights real or imagined. The overt narcissist has rage very close to the surface and can when not getting his or her way.

Hi everyone im new here, i just wanna thank Lisa Scott and everyone for spreading awareness. I wondered why did my ex Narccisst never hoovered me? i went fully no contact but i didn't block him on anything neither did he. We broke up 3 years ago and never heard anything from him? Does that mean that he fully used me up a supply? we dated just 9 months? thanks in advance

Hi everyone im new to this forum. I was really doubting to start a count but i have so many questions about my ex Narccisst which no one can answer. They just don't understand , they all say just move on. Which i did but everything came as such a shock. I really wondered why he never hoovered? We broke up almost 3 years now and i went no contact and never contacted him, but neither did he? i just wonder is that because he really used all he could of me? we dated for 9 months . I hope someone could provide a answer? thanks in advance

Facebook is the perfect platform for a narcissist to torture old supply. I didn't realize it at the time but that is what my X did to his X wife when he met me... it must have really stung her ... in fact he told me she had said she hated that she was replaced by me.... so she must feel better now that we are done, knowing now it wasn't her, it was him! The "happy" pics of us in the "honeymoon" stage were "pretend" before the mask fell....................Toogsie 2013

hello all, Ive been wit my narc for over 4 yrs now, when we met I had already had some major emotional issues I was battling for years, however, I feel like this brought me to my lowest. When we met yes he was the typical attractive, egotistical narc, but he didn't fit the profile of being romantic and sweeping me off my feet, he was quite candid, he was raised In polygamy and felt its quite normal to have more than one woman, he did convince me that at that time he wasn't interested in anyone but me. So sure enough I felt special somehow.
