They’re out there! Those spooky individuals bloggers like to write about. And I can see why. After all, surviving a relationship with one of those critters may change a person forever. Yes, of course, I’m referring to the narcissist.

I see it like this. If you’re in a relationship with someone and that individual is treating you poorly, then ask yourself. Would you want your child to be with someone just like the person you’re with? You know, treated similarly to how you’re being treated?

Narcissists are attracted to their opposites. People with empathy are targets for these critters. It’s not complicated. Someone with no empathy seeks to prey upon someone with too much empathy. It’s an old story.

  2. Great post. It’s such a good way to gain perspective when you put it the terms of: Would I want someone to treat my child that way?” This very thought has gotten me out of an emotionally abusive relationship in the past.
