Do you have a narcissistic partner? Your connection appears to be troublesome and toxic, and you wish to break free from the narcissist’s grasp. You started using the no-contact rule, which allows you to breathe freely without their presence.
If you suddenly implement this rule, your narcissistic partner will most likely think that you are selfish and a coward. However, cutting connections with the narcissist is not just an option; it is the only way to make them crazy about you. What happens when you suddenly go no contact with a narcissist? Will the narcissist resort to violence to win you back? Will they find new prey to replace you instead?
12 Reasons Why Going No Contact Will Drive Narcissists Crazy
Number 1: You Are the Source of Their Narcissistic Supply.
You are the source of their narcissistic supply. People who are narcissistic need adoration and attention. In a relationship, they want someone to make them feel good. Narcissists desire your energy and emotional attributes to make them feel alive. If their partners enforce no contact, narcissists can’t progress, which drains their power.
Number 2: They Feel Betrayed.
If they are alone, narcissists feel betrayed by their partners. They are possessive of their partners, not out of love, but because their partner makes them feel superior. Suppose you are in a relationship with a narcissist and suddenly terminate your relationship with them. These people lack self-reflection, so instead of asking themselves what they did wrong, they will blame you for everything that happened. They will most likely feel backstabbed.
Number 3: It Hurts Their Ego.
Narcissists are egotistical individuals who want you to adore and admire them because they are full of themselves. These people stay in relationships not because they love you, but because they want you to invest your energy in them to make them happy. So if you leave them unexpectedly, it will hurt their ego and make them hate you. Some narcissists may pursue their partners after they have left them because they want to rekindle their passion for abusing you—not because they realize that they love you.
Number 4: Narcissists Feel Ashamed of Themselves.
One of the narcissist’s biggest fears is feeling embarrassed. They have their own set of criteria for what makes them happy, requiring someone to uphold those standards so that others will respect them. If their partner leaves so abruptly, they would feel humiliated by losing the game.
