If you want to understand the hidden game of emotional manipulation and heal yourself after psychological abuse, then keep istening.

Narcissism is viewed as a negative personality trait for a reason. People who have been in a romantic relationship with a narcissistic partner confess to experiencing tough emotional and psychological torment that almost ruins them.

Why does this happen?

This happens because Narcissists have specific personality types that they attract and are attracted to because they are easy to manipulate. Unfortunately, Narcissists attract opposite personality types who portray empathy and concern for others.

Narcissists are not empathetic and only care about what is best for themselves. Despite this being a socially toxic trait, it helps prevent narcissists from developing mental instability; in fact, these character traits only make narcissists mentally tough. So imagine a mentally tough and manipulative partner and their effect on an empathetic person who questions themselves constantly.

The result is a toxic relationship, where one person does all they can to seek approval from a manipulative partner who yearns to be adored.
