Early Warning Signs that the Narcissist Wishes To Return

Narcissistic relationships can vary. And today’s article is inclusive of all narcissistic relationships. So, whether it is a narcissistic friend, parent, partner, child, pastor, co-worker, or whatever,  all narcissists are very much alike. So, if you have gone without contact or have just been really good at keeping them out of your life by ignoring them or avoiding them, then these warning signs I am going to go through today will let you know if an ex-narcissist is looking to get back into your life. Narcissists are not usually willing to discard or leave a source of supply permanently. Of course, there may seem to be exceptions to this, especially if the narcissist thinks they have hit the jackpot with the new supply,  meaning they found someone who ticks all their boxes. Or they may be reveling in their newfound freedom. Or they may be distracted by their recent successes or accomplishments.

So, it is best to keep that door closed tightly and never let them back in.

Narcissists will be snooping around to find out where you are romantically, socially, and mentally. So that they can decide the best approach. They may use an alias account or their own account to do this, depending on what they think is best.

They may also use an unknown telephone number to call you or message you. The narcissist loves to play this game of anonymity to catch you off guard. Or to get you to lower your defenses before they reveal themselves.
