I’ve been with a narcissist for 9 years and just recently within the last year found out what narcissism really is and that he is for sure a narcissist through our counselor. I was made fun of on other threads asking for someone else’s opinion probably because they don’t understand narcissistic abuse and how it makes you think. I’m sure you can imagine how my mind works after 9 years of the abuse but not knowing what it was.. I can’t tell what’s real and what’s not it seems. We also just lost our 2 month old daughter in January so emotions have been high. I’ve caught him cheating before and he always finds ways to talk himself out of it or better yet turn it around on me somehow.. and when I have left he finds ways to get me to come back and I always fall for it…

But here’s the situation this time.. I’ve set up a gps in our vehicle and a voice activated recorder in our home because I simply do not trust him and I feel like if I want to break free the only way I will is having hard proof to show myself that I’m not crazy.. and to show him when I leave so he can’t deny it.

I need someone’s unbiased opinion on this recording I have. I might be overthinking things or hearing things that I’m just assuming and I really don’t wanna say anything until I know for sure and have somebody else’s opinion about it too. the recorder is in a room with a litter of puppies with the living room in the next room over and down the hallway is our room. it’s a mobile home. I also have the recorder set to voice activated recording, so it only picked up when the puppies were making noise but listen to the background and please tell me what you hear. I’m sorry I know the puppies are loud and annoying but listen to the background if you can.. this was Mother’s Day morning I left to see my mom and ended up coming back home earlier than expected and he seemed mad that I was back already and he was asking how long I’d be gone… I have a feeling and I know I should trust my gut but it’s hard when you’ve dealt with this abuse for so long idk what to trust.
