"narcissistic abuse" eventually just becomes.. very boring and uninteresting. Anyone relate?
This is not to discredit anyone in their current experience, as I know it can be very consuming and impactful in stages, and I'm probably lucky in many ways to be at stage far from those feelings, but thought it may be helpful to come back to a forum like this to share.
After leaving the original person I associate with this stuff and having read about the patterns over time rejected "hoover" attempts etc I'm now at a stage where it is just potently dull feeling..
There are so many people in this world who are so much more interesting and worthwhile meeting, and the world has what feels like abundant/infinite diversity of sensations and perceptions to experience which are much more rich and stimulating.
Every time a narcissist from the past tries one of their tactics I just have a flat feeling, like an inner sigh or yawn. These people will attempt to present as somehow new or different each time but the underlying feeling of similarity /mediocrity persists.
I haven't read about this much if at all.. anyone relate?
