What it's like loving a Narcissistic Man

At first, he’s charming.

He’ll tell you everything you’ve ever wanted to hear — the words, the affection, the promises.

He mirrors your energy, your dreams, your softness.

You think you’ve finally met someone who sees you.

But soon, the warmth turns cold.

The compliments become criticism.

The laughter fades into silence.

You start apologizing for things you didn’t even do.

You begin to shrink… while he grows louder.

A narcissistic man doesn’t love you —

he loves your admiration, your energy, your ability to believe in him.

When you stop feeding his ego, he punishes you with distance, blame, or control.

And yet, he still plays the victim.

He’ll make you doubt yourself —

your memory, your worth, your sanity.

That’s called gaslighting, and it’s one of their sharpest weapons.

But the truth is this:

You simply loved someone who cannot love without control.

And one day, when your peace matters more than their approval,

you’ll reclaim your voice, your spirit, and your glow.

💚 To anyone healing from a narcissistic relationship — you are not alone.

You are learning the difference between attachment and love, control and care, illusion and truth.
