Psychopath and Narcissist Survivors Support Group

Loved the "nobody else could possibly understand" part! LOL!

My N said that constantly.

Ironically, it's true though. I cannot possibly understand how a space alien on crack thinks. Nor would I really want to.

Here's another:
Will brag and boast about how much he could consume at an "all you can eat" buffet...(then turn around and complain about the food....WTF?) LOL!

I just have to laugh at these stupid inane things that make no sense.

"Ironically, it's true though. I cannot possibly understand how a space alien on crack thinks. Nor would I really want to."

That cracked me up!! it's so true! Their thinking is so warped! I was often flabbergasted. When he would say something totally absurd I had to ask him if he was serious! he couldn't possibly be serious! but he was..

My XN would seemed to pry on very intelligent women. women who earned high honors in college. And then would insist he was more intelligent then them (and me) even though he never went to college, has never left the town he was born in, has never traveled or bothers to read a book or newspaper.

So how did he gain all this deep knowledge and life experience at the of 28? it's a mystery! He must be an alien! LOL!

here's another one:

He often claimed he was immortal and was actually hundreds of years old.
he thinks he will never die and he can't get sick. Even though we both had the flu last year. When I would remind him about the flu incident he would claim it never happened!!!! scary stuff.

Mine was definitely the passive-aggressive humble type. He would never actively brag about himself but was happy to be contemptuous about overweight people, stupid people - and to make what I always thought were bad-taste racist/ sexist jokes, until I realised that he genuinely did despise people who were different from him.

He also couldn't stand to be wrong, even on things that were clearly way out of his field. He certainly couldn't stand to be 'less' than me, and lo the sniping began...

The X got a tatoo with his own name. How vain is that!

hugs,

Yeah, I've heard those spiels too.....he NEVER wanted to be in the spotlight; HATED the attention, DIDN'T LIKE people looking at him.

Heck, yeah... exactly what my x wife sounded like. That didn't stop her from claiming that:
- she should've been a brain surgeon
- she would make a great police investigator
- she was a queen, and I should be her servant
- she was an expert in child psychology... *shiver*
- she would be a great music producer or rock star (once she learned how to play an instrument, I guess)
- she was a financial genius
- she considered her self a great spiritual leader
- just because she'd never painted anything didn't mean she wasn't an artist

and on and on and on...



Peace, Flying Sticks.

I would like to know where to purchase the following:

Bullsh*t Sonar
Red Flag Registering Unit
Dissorder Deflector

Is this part of the NPD Detector Set? I need to order one right away! Unfortunately, my previous N altered my reality so bad I can no longer trust my own instincts!

If we can find out where to buy them, perhaps we could do a Secret Santa?

They're still just prototypes, I'll let you all know when I've developed the fool proof, pro versions You can have them for free when they're ready!

On a serious note, though off topic; I'm no professional or expert, but in time, your reality, or rather your SENSE of reality will heal. I know mine has, I feel really close to my self at the present time. I still wrestle ptsd a bit, (nightmares, hypersensitivity, low energy etc), but it's nothing compared to how things used to be. Dark humor (and ordinary humor) is my personal favorite weapon against the bad stuff, and has really made a huge difference. (Try imagining your N standing in the supermarked wearing nothing but old, saggy socks... giggle!) Maybe because my N always got pissed off whenever I had a good time. The more I'd laugh, the angrier she'd be. In the end, I almost never laughed. Hence, I may come across a bit goofy at times... but it sure makes me feel good, and hopefully it doesn't hurt anyone... well, except her :D

Peace, Flying Sticks

Another TOP thread!!!

Hmm...

The ones that come to mind...

When pulling his sports car apart (to do a backyard engine swap) he flat out REFUSED to take it to a mechanic to have it done. His reason- "I might as well be a mechanic" spewspewspewspewspew YUKKKK!!!!

End result: It ended up costing him around 15k in repairs for things he stuffed up. The original engine swap would have cost him half.

LMAO!!!!! Karma is a sweet thing.

Ummm, he was an expeert on EVERYTHING. Even things he clearly knew nothing about.

Claimed to have a lot of money and a 'luxury apartment' with nice furniture. I went there the first time and was like, um, is this YOUR apartment? When can we go to the 'luxury' one. Haha. It was a dog box. With one couch and a tinyTV on a crate. Do these losers even realise when they are lying?

Claimed that his Dad was a millionaire. Pffft. A retired pensioner.

Always attempted to out do me, or anyone else for that matter. Couldn't handle not being perceived to be the best.

Lots more. But These were all that come to mind...

Well, my nfather is so special that Jesus and/or God (can't remember which maybe both) have actually appeared, plain as day, and spoken to him. Given him directives.

Oh, man---are we talking about the same person!!!??

Yes, Jesus has bestowed many miracles on my N....(although why Jesus wouldn't cure him of being an A-Hole, I have no idea....)

More N Grandiosity Delusions---

Writing a book (not)
Becoming a pilot (not)
Lectured at University Level (not)

LOLOLOL ROFLMAO....... This one always makes me laugh!

He was a musician and did some knock off crap of his own.... One song was "I met her in the personal ads" for wife number four and then he suddenly went to "I met her on the internet" for me when we met.....

He had a favorite musician that he knew and claimed to love. I doubt his ability to love or idolize anyone but himself, but he knew the music because that musician happened to be my favorite as well.

Well he cried in my arms one day that he had his unbearable curse on him. He was BETTER than our favorite musician and in his unbearable curse, he was going to outdo this musician (the musician is a legend, a musical genius, king of his genre, but old now) and he didn't want to be better! What was he going to do? How could he do this to the man that taught him everything he knows through his music!

ROFLMAO

He didn't TOUCH my musician hero! He could take the musicians and make carbon copies but they were not his (the xnp) origional ideas! Hilarious to think about! I remember sitting there as he cried (real tears too! He thought he was that good!)

I still laugh my butt off thinking about it!

Thanks guys, this has me in tears I'm laughing so hard. I just thought of a few...

We went on a trip two weeks after I found out about his first affair. He wanted to buy me a gift. So I walked around for an hour while he bought me his gift. His gift turned out to be a characticure of guess what, HIMSELF. I just looked at him but of course at the time didn't want to hurt his feelings. Now I want to throw up. What a vain jerk!!

He would also take my kids places and buy himself stuff and not them. Friends that were with them were just shocked. I mean what the heck!!

He would only allow the kids to eat 2 meals a day, not drink milk (we had to conserve it), ask for permission to get anything out of the fridge. Then when they'd ask for water he'd say they didn't have to ask.

Boy, once they are gone it's funny how your mind starts coming back to you and you can see all the crap you put up with.

OMG, this is so hilarious! Let's see:
- An angel came in my room an blessed me, now I know things.
- I am one of the, if not THE greatest guitar player in the world (huh?)
- I have dated so many beautiful women, they were models!
- People seem to see me and want my magic, I don't know what it is
- I make things happen, like hurricanes and earthquakes
-What if I am one of Jesus' disciples?
- I would have been a rock star if I were allowed (victim of circumstance)
- When Michael (Jackson) calls me and invites me to play with him, no one will have anything to say then will they?
- I am worth millions
- You don't know how famous I am do you?
- my relatives had the President come to their house

He always was claiming affiliation with celebrities.

The list goes on......uhg!

Everyone says I look 39 not 49 .

Everyone says you don't look 51

I am Smith Construction....I have all the contacts (his guys do all the work and cover for him when he doesn't show up or screws up)

We have three houses - (only one is paid for , one is remortgaged and God only knows about the other one.)

How many guys my age have Boners like this in the morning (TRUE)

I really know how to play these guys with big egos -I let them think my ideas are their ideas, give them the credit and we all make money

My truck has to look nice so people respect me and my abilities ( it looks like a freakin billboard)

Do my arms look like I work out? Yeah - most guys my age turn into tubs

Lots of guys....that blue pill does wonders.

These Ns are morons.

Here's more:

Claims rare musical ability (can't read music)
Expert carpenter (saw something he made; looks like I built it!)
Great driver (should NOT be on the road, too many tickets to count)

newlife08 wrote:

No pills needed. Guys wake up in the morning with a "pee" erection if you know what I mean. My first husband used to complain about it in the morning LOL

What an idiot your guy was!

Windsong...Oh my God. I am laughing and speechless at that whole musician story...UNREAL!!!! Gosh...you can't make up stuff that's better than this!

Mine went to a psychologist because he wanted to work for the UN but secon in command was not good enough, he was driving himself crazy because he wasn't the president. (I'm not joking, and he didn't even work for the UN, was just trying to see how he could get to the top)

He told me he thought were were better looking than most couples

He said he wants everybody in the world to know his name (if anyone here knows his name please do tell!)

He wants to contribute to the world and do good. So i told him to volunteer in spare time. He meant earn millions and be a philanthropist so everybody would know his name and thank him for saving the world.

He refers to himself as an international consultant (he has been on one business trip abroad mending software)

He told me he didn't find his OW attractive, well not as attractive as him.

He told me while we we in bed together that he thinks he could pull a supermodel, and will one day be with one

N Alert:
when all accomplishments are either "national, international, or global!"

They need to be "recognized" for something or other....mine NEVER used the drive-up tellers at the bank. He had to go in, just so he could hear, "Hello, Mr. So-and-so, how are you today?" Then, he could use that opportunity to spew about himself. He had me believing he had a LOT of money in that bank, and that is why they knew him. They probably knew him only because he was the guy that "never used the drive-up!"

What a freak.

:P

My first warning came when I was dating my N exhusband many years ago. He brought pictures of some furniture he had built to show me how gifted he was. True, he was good at it, and the furniture was very nice. I said as much. N got angry because I didn't gush over it enough. I could not figure out what he wanted me to do - faint, do a handstand????

He and his brother were building a shop for N, funded by his poor parents. As soon as he told me about it, the shop morphed into a big house. And, of course, he knew how to build better than builders (the house was a disaster on many fronts, they obviously did not know what they were doing). N would want me to sit and watch him work for hours and hours, doing nothing but admiring him. I used to think it was because we lived in separate towns, and he just wanted me around, but this "sit and watch me and praise my glorious talent" continued into our marriage. It was truly bizarre. He would get angry when I would plead I had other things I needed to do other than to sit and watch him work for hours.

N literally made up stories about his past, whole cloth, in which he was the BEST at everything. He was a FAMOUS basketball player in his home city. In his one semester at college, he was the BEST baseball player and would have gotten professional offers if his coach hadn't personally persecuted him. As a young Mormon missionary, he baptized almost a HUNDRED people (I later discovered he was considered a "problem" missionary and baptized around five people.) He was so spiritual that many people told him they could see a "halo" around his head when he spoke at church.

Later, when I met people who actually knew N during high school, I found out what he was really famous for was having a hot temper and fighting on the court. I also discovered he was kicked off the college team because he couldn't be bothered to attend any of his classes and failed them all. I also discovered he was almost sent home from his Mormon mission for mailing dirty magazines and women's underwear to other missionaries, and sneaking off to watch a porn movie in a theatre (back in the days before the internet or DVDs, when people actually had to go to gross theaters to see porn!)

He was obsessed with my looks, and threatened to divorce me if I didn't lose ten pounds. My body, he told me, should be as smooth as a statue under his touch. After all, he deserved the BEST of everything, including his wife's looks.

He couldn't keep a regular job because he believed he deserved to be rich and respected, and couldn't stand working his way up. He would lose his temper and mouth off at his boss and quit (or be fired). He literally told me he was too good for a "nine-to-five" job... although obviously I had to keep a nine-to-five job.

And yes, he was a sucker for MLM schemes, too. He would invest money we couldn't afford in some dumb package he saw on late night TV, and tell me he was going to be a millionaire soon. When the stuff arrived, however, I was the one who was supposed to actually sell the stuff, despite the fact that I had no interest in it and wasn't consulted about it in the first place. Then, when it failed, as it obviously was destined to, it was my fault.

What got me was he seemed so genuine! It was just his cross to bear and he didn't want that damn curse of being better! And the musician we are talking about has been around for over fifty years now and writes, composes, sings, plays an instrument, produces his own albums! He is considered a LEGEND in music! Many musicians since this man's time has said that HE the musician influenced their music!!!

My little musician? My little genius owned a keyboard and a few music equipment you could have bought at walmart, just so happens the town I lived in had a music store! LOL If he was lukky the shit he owned maybe came up to a thousand dollars LMAO!

Mine got out of bed once, went to the bathroom, came back to bed and stated with a completely straight face: "I really think I am ridiculously good-looking".

I was horrified.

(I'm laughing pretty hard now though :D )

Called himself a "great catch" all the time...
yea, "im a great catch!"... Look at me "im a great catch"... Oh, they just check me out cuz "im a great catch'...haha

My ex once told me his Mexican/Irish girlfriend was a direct decendant of Cleopatra. I asked him if he'd looked at a map lately. I told him Cleopatra didn't really look like Elizabeth Taylor (his girlfriend didn't either.)
I pointed out that Egypt was in Africa. I mentioned that his girlfriend didn't look Middle Eastern OR black. I laughed hysterically.
My ex thinks he's a decendant of Robert the Bruce of Scotland. His last name is English as in a common word in the English language. He went to some Scottish convention thingie where they were doing geneology backgrounds on names. They pointed out that Scottish names were in Gaelic (sp?). Oops! Hahahahaha! He is so easy to laugh at I'll never learn control!

My 'N' parents (bio father, mother and step-father) are amazingly gullible. If you lie to them,flatter them and appeal to thier egos you can bilk them for whatever all day long. It seems the more outrageous the lie the more they believe it. A normal person would listen and think it was the biggest load of crap they ever heard.

If a person comes to them straight out with references, a good reputation and a set limit on price,services or whatever they always refuse!

I figured this out when they needed work done and they'd pass over the normal bussiness men and hire the biggest flake/con man around over and over again. They'd go to get bids and ignore thier friend's recommendations over some fool that got wind they wanted work and came to them every time.
