Yes, and it ended with me getting sole custody.

By the time I did see the red flags, she was already prego.

That first year we dated was flat out amazing and absolutely perfect. I always found myself trying to get back there.

That is exactly what I was chasing (along with the highs throughout the marriage).

They push / pull ya to death and get ya addicted. It was an addictionship, not a relationship looking back.

And she never wanted a partnership after hooking me in. Only wanted a dictatorship.

I got where I would only text her during fights she would start as well.

Got sick of seeing the evil grin and talking in circles.

She was shocked when she came home and I was gone for good. It was literally one of the best feelings I have ever had when I finally freed myself from her.

Yes, I understand these things are complicated. Events in time seem to blend into each other. You probably aren’t actively looking for markers related to serious psychological conditions, lol. Most probably don’t look for that during dating.

Yep. Things are amazing, then they're fricking horrible. Rinse. Repeat.......for a decade. It gets tiresome after a while. Unfortunately, when you're a man with kids, you'll try your best to ride out the horrible times for their sake.

Then you get the added fear of worrying your kids will develop BPD. Whee!

You have no one to talk to because you think you’re going insane. And people who’ve never experienced that sort of relationship do NOT get it. As they shouldn’t, it’s a crazy that can only be understood through experience and endurance. When you have to Google behavior to rationalize or make sense of how you’re being treated… LEAVE.

Being with someone truly narcissistic (not just someone who is fixated on their appearance) is demonic. Truly demonic. I could write a book so insane that you’d think it was fiction.

I escaped but it’s been a 2.5 year long process of complete hell. I do not wish it upon anyone.

They have no self identity. So in the beginning, they mirror you and it seems like the perfect person. Everything you like, they like.

This. It leaves you chasing that first year for years to come. And if you happen to be a codependent person, likely also with a lot of empathy, watch out. It’s like blood in the water but that’s allegedly who they’re generally attracted to. You may feel really crappy for falling for it, for allowing yourself to be blinded and manipulated so easily…but at least rest assured knowing they generally go for people with a lot of great qualities who they want to emulate.

Exactly right.

They are jealous of your good qualities because they have none.

During the final stretch, I felt like the more love I tried to show, the more she hated me.

When I would get excited about something or just feel overjoyed, here comes the disgusted look or she would pick a fight.

They are flat out hating machines!

When I had a blast with my kids she would say “you’re just the fun uncle” with so much resentment.

She also said many times throughout the marriage “I’m unlovable.”

Almost married one of these psychopaths.
Very charming in the beginning but eventually her true self came out , which was a monster.

Afterwards she goes on social media and spreads outright lies about me.

She met her next victim and married him within a couple of months.

Good for you brother!!!

Mine remarried after only 8 months and would try her best to triangulate me with him and make me jealous. Didn’t work.

I told her that I don’t give a damn who the next contestant is, but it will never be me again I can promise you that.

When I left for good, she was shocked when she came home. Went completely off the rails emailing and texting me once she lost control.

The word crazy doesn’t even describe how she got once she lost control.

I wanted to leave at the 7 year mark once we moved to BR but my kids were way too young so I grinned and beared it.

One way she always ran from herself trying to find happiness is that she wanted to move about every 3 years.

Everything about her seemed to run in 3 yr cycles.

Forgot to mention: she was adopted at 3 months old.

Grew up with a silver spoon in her mouth. Dad was a heart surgeon and taught classes at Tulane Medical School once he retired after only 15 years.

Love her entire family and always will. Had a blast in NOLA with all of them and will always cherish those memories.
