How is the narcissist viewing this silent treatment? First of all, what I want to say to you guys is that it’s great that you have put boundaries in place. It’s great that you have asserted what it is that you want from this dynamic, from this interaction. You know what you’ve heard, these things in place to protect you. And you know what? I’m all about that. Like, I’m always saying, you know what? Do this to protect you. Do this because this is going to help you going forward.
But we can’t help thinking, like, what is the narcissist thinking about? Or, like, what’s going on in their mind? The narcissist, okay, when you take control, alright, they don’t like this because you’re in control. They’re not going to like the fact that you have done something about this, meaning that they’re not able to manipulate you. They’re not able to do anything about this situation. What you have done is removed all communication so they can’t use your energy, your time, your emotion, or anything. They don’t know what you are feeling, what you are thinking, so they can’t take this information and use it against you.”
Now, you know as well as I do that a narcissist really, really hates the fact, okay, that they can’t have control over you because that’s what they want. They want the control. They want to know that they can control a situation, a person, to get the desired outcome. So, the fact that you have gone no contact, you’ve shown them that, like, ‘I’m not down with this anymore,’ they’re gonna really hate this. They’re gonna hate this completely, and this can go as far as causing narcissistic injury.
