Of course, the more damaging it will be to the Narcissist if you were a significant source of supply to them. Because as I discussed in this artcile the amount of Narcissistic Supply you provide matters to the Narcissist. The greater the supply, the greater the loss. But generally speaking, when a Narcissist loses control of someone it means that person has taken their power back. That person has decided to change or end the relationship with the Narcissist. That person has decided to make themselves unreachable to the Narcissist and the Narcissist cannot handle that. Because the Narcissist believes that they should be the one calling all the shots. So, no matter how small or great that source of Narcissistic Supply was, the Narcissist hates losing control.
Therefore, there a few ways they can respond to deal with that loss. One of the first possible ways a Narcissist may respond is to just get busy with the others sources of supply they already have and even make public a few secret supplies that they were messing around with on the side.
Narcissists need to be constantly validated and not feel irrelevant and that is why for some Narcissists it would appear that they have just quickly moved on. But for the Narcissist it is more of a coping mechanism. It is more of an escape from dealing with the reality that they have been rejected or just to avoid looking at themselves to see where they may have gone wrong. So, yes turning to other sources of supply or seeking out new supply is one of the ways the Narcissist would deal with losing control over someone.
