Hurtful statements intended to linger are also common. These may come in the form of critiques or accusations, designed to leave a lasting impression. Narcissists hate being forgotten, just as they despise no contact or being ignored. They know the power of words and use them to remain present in your thoughts, even after they’re gone.
Before I conclude, I want to note that it is possible for a self-aware narcissist to express a desire for reconciliation in their final moments. However, this would depend heavily on their level of insight and willingness to confront their behavior.
In general, though, narcissists are more focused on playing the victim and protecting their false image. They avoid owning up to their wrongdoings, instead prioritizing accusations, blame-shifting, and guilt-tripping. Their final words are not random; they are calculated to leave a mark.
However, their words only hold the power you give them. Don’t let a narcissist—or any toxic person—speak negativity into your life. Reject their words and free yourself from their influence.
