A narcissist needs attention the same way a vampire needs blood. Their sense of self-worth depends on validation, admiration, and the approval of others. When you get involved with someone like this, the relationship quickly becomes centered around them. They expect your attention, your energy, your reassurance, and eventually, your life to revolve around their needs. But here's the uncomfortable part: These relationships often trap people who are struggling with their own sense of self-worth. When you haven't done the work to build validation from within, it's easy to believe that someone else's love, attention, or affection will finally heal the parts of you you've been avoiding. It won't. No relationship can do the inner work for you. Stop looking for someone else to fill the parts of yourself you've been neglecting. #Narcissism #NarcissisticAbuse #ToxicRelationships #SelfWorth #SelfRespect Healing Relationships RelationshipAdvice Boundaries SelfLove PersonalGrowth Emotiona...
