Remeber This When The Narcissist Returns… 5 Important Specifics

The second thing to keep in mind when a narcissist comes back around is that their aim is to control you. Having control is what makes them feel powerful. Just getting along is not enough; they have to have the upper hand or the advantage. They want to be the one in charge. Bit by bit, they work towards being the center of your life or having some measure of control.

No Regrets

The third thing to remember is that they have no regrets about how they may have treated you and they will never take accountability. So, even if they apologize, it is never genuine. But they are prepared to do and say whatever it takes if it means you will give them another chance. Therefore, you have to remember that the narcissist has not changed. They are good at pretending to have made changes, but it never lasts. As soon as they are comfortable, they will fall back into their old abusive patterns. Whenever the psychological abuse or mistreatment returns, you can be sure it will be worse than before. Because the narcissist views you as familiar territory and they already may know what your weaknesses are. Therefore, the betrayal and hurt will hit harder, so it is not worth the risk of giving them another chance.
