- 0:42So when is the the most vulnerable time for you to meet
- 0:49a narcissist? When like when when like when is
- 0:51the most open time to meet a narcissist?
- 0:53Y'all, like I think a lot of people when I use the word
- 0:55vulnerable, I was, I was trying to search for a better word by
- 0:58just cannot think of a better word right there.
- 1:00Because a lot of people when I when I say the word vulnerable,
- 1:02you automatically assume that that's the time you're going to
- 1:04meet a narcissist. Like when you're vulnerable,
- 1:06like when you just went through a loss, you know, because this
- 1:10is what happens a lot of times you can meet a narcissist when
- 1:13you just left a relationship, when you just experience the
- 1:16loss of a family member or a friend or something like that,
- 1:19Like you just, you're going through some type of hurt or
- 1:21some type of pain, correct? You can meet a narcissist doing
- 1:24those times right there, right? But what I've discovered after
- 1:29talking to so many people, thousands of people over the
- 1:31last three years, y'all, 3 1/2 years, is the fact that to me, a
- 1:38lot of people meet narcissists. When you're doing well, when
- 1:44you're at the peak of your life, when you're doing amazing, when
- 1:48things are going good, when life is great is when you meet a
- 1:52narcissist. Like so many people have this
- 1:55happen Now again, y'all, this is not, I haven't ran the the
- 2:00scientific method on or anything like that.
- 2:02I don't have a hypothesis and I don't have a conclusion or no,
- 2:06no testing data. This is all anecdotal, but I've
- 2:09talked to so many people that it, it, it, it's there's some
- 2:12validity to it, I feel. And, and y'all, I said, when did
- 2:16you meet a narcissist? When you going through grief and
- 2:18loss or when you were doing very well, because This is why I tell
- 2:22people like is when you you're more likely to meet a narcissist
- 2:25for for me, not more likely you're you're more you're likely
- 2:30to meet a NAR. I'll just take the way to work
- 2:32more. You're likely to meet a
- 2:33narcissist when you're doing well, when you have your when
- 2:38your finances are in order, when like money is not an object.
- 2:42Like when you have just graduated from school, you have
- 2:45everything going for you. When you at a peak, you're
- 2:49likely to meet a narcissist when you're peeking in life as
- 2:53opposed to when you're going through a valley.
- 2:56Now you can meet narcissist in the valley.
- 2:58There are there are hundreds of examples of people meeting
- 3:00narcissist when they were going through something.
- 3:02I just left a terrible relationship.
- 3:04My husband cheated on me and we were separated.
- 3:07First person I met, I got divorced.
- 3:09First person I met my mom passed away, met somebody that met my
- 3:13cousin's, my cousin's, my cousin, my cousin's husband's
- 3:16best friend at the funeral. I met all these people, right?
- 3:20That's so it happened so many times when you can meet them
- 3:22when you're grieving, you can meet them, meet them while
- 3:25you're in a vulnerable time. We'll talk, we'll talk about
- 3:27that later. But a lot of times you meet them
- 3:29when you don't like yo when you meet them and you and when you
- 3:33were at the peak, you just graduated college, you just got
- 3:37your like masters or PhD or something like that.
- 3:40You just made your first million.
- 3:43You just open up your business. You just started your own
- 3:45company. You just did something great in
- 3:48your life. I know what I'm talking about.
- 3:50Some big I'm talking about like over the top stuff, you know,
- 3:56But it doesn't have to be that big.
- 3:57It can be just a celebration for you.
- 3:58You can be at the top of your life.
- 3:59You just graduated high school. A peak moment in your life,
- 4:02right? A light.
- 4:03You can you meet them at life's peaks, right?
- 4:07And they come take you down to the bottom.
- 4:09So many people I've talked to were at the peak of their life.
- 4:12They were at a top on the mountain top, but they were
- 4:16alone. They were lonely.
- 4:18Somebody came, somebody came through.
- 4:21You met this person, they ended up being toxic and ruin your
- 4:23damn life. Lee, I just got, I had just
- 4:26graduated nursing school, got my nursing, my nursing degree.
- 4:30I was successful. I had my own house, own car.
- 4:32I was doing so good. I had money in the bank.
- 4:35You know, this person came to my life, was jealous of me being
- 4:38there, didn't have, they didn't have much to offer.
- 4:40They were jealous of me working in the hospital and being around
- 4:44doctors and attorneys would come in there or whatever,
- 4:47firefighters, whoever, police officers come in and they were
- 4:49so jealous of the people that would come in there.
- 4:51They made me so uncomfortable working at a job that I quit my
- 4:54job to do something less. I made way less.
- 4:58And then as soon as I started making less, this person left
- 5:00me. They meet you at the
- 5:03mountaintop, y'all. They meet you at the peak and
- 5:05bring your ass back down to the valley.
- 5:09You at the peak. You can't see what's down
- 5:11beneath you, just like we like y'all.
- 5:12You know when you standing at the you standing at the bottom
- 5:14of the mountain, you looking up and like that I cannot see the
- 5:17top of this damn thing. This damn thing huge.
- 5:20You mean it's clouds? It's so far like a whole that is
- 5:23is the top of the mountain. All the space that is so high,
- 5:26but you start the climbing and you realize you get to the top
- 5:29like that. I made it I'm up here.
- 5:30You look down. The same fog is still there.
- 5:33You look down. You can't see the bottom
- 5:34anymore, but guess what? You can't see the bottom anymore
- 5:37and somehow the narcissistic person sneaks through they at
- 5:40the bottom or or or they're at the peak too.
- 5:45They're up there with you. Not every single person who's at
- 5:47a peak in their life meets a bum ass narcissist that's at the
- 5:50bottom where you had to build up.
- 5:51Not everybody does that right. Some people do some people when
- 5:54you're at a peak and you have a lot to give you try you like
- 5:56damn, I'm I'm a I'm a giver, I'm a healer.
- 5:58I'm here to help and heal. Let me take this sorry, horrible
- 6:02ass person and try to build them up.
- 6:04And I know that I know they don't have much to offer, but
- 6:08that's what that that that's what makes them.
- 6:11I know they don't have much to offer, but that's that's what
- 6:13makes them special to me because I can help them out.
- 6:16I'm I'm going to help somebody build them up.
- 6:17You build them up, you give to them and you take from yourself.
- 6:22You give to them while you take from yourself, right.
- 6:26And then you end up going back down.
- 6:28You end up climbing down. Yeah, you have to when you try
- 6:31to pull somebody up, when you at the top of the mountain, it's
- 6:33like a it's like a ledge, right? The top of the mountain is like
- 6:36a ledge. You have to reach down to pull
- 6:38them up like hey, here's take my hand, take my hand and they take
- 6:44your hand and they pull your ass down.
- 6:47Instead of using your hand for leverage and putting their
- 6:49putting their putting their feet in the side of the mountain and
- 6:51pulling themselves up, they take your hand and yank your ass down
- 6:55there with them. Come on down here.
- 6:56It's comfortable down here. They don't want you being above
- 6:58them. They resent the fact that you're
- 7:00above them. When you get the, the lower
- 7:01ones, they resent the fact that you're above them.
- 7:05That's what happens a lot of time we get narcissistic people
- 7:08that are not on the same, not not in the same financial
- 7:10category as you. Y'all.
- 7:12They don't know how to treat. They they become jealous because
- 7:14you are there and they are not. So they treat, they feel that
- 7:18they feel a certain type of way about you and they treat you
- 7:21because they feel a certain type of way about you.
- 7:23They treat you a certain type of way.
- 7:25It's not in it like I'm going to say this is not in a good way.
- 7:28They, they typically, they typically don't treat you in a
- 7:30good way when they feel a certain type of way about you.
- 7:32If they feel negative about you, if they are jealous of you, they
- 7:35treat you like they're jealous of you.
- 7:37That's just factual information. If they are jealous of you, they
- 7:39treat you like they're jealous of you, right?
- 7:41You know, and this is what happens when you at the top,
- 7:45they pull you back down, especially if they're below you.
- 7:48If this is not me trying to say, hey, look, when you get up here,
- 7:52don't date down. I'm not telling you to date down
- 7:55in quotation mark. I'm saying like if you were on a
- 7:57date with somebody that doesn't make the same amount of money
- 7:59and somebody is not accustomed to the same type of lifestyle,
- 8:02vet this vet this bastard first. Vet them very well.
- 8:07Take them like they ain't never had nothing.
- 8:09Y'all, I see this so much. Y'all they resent you for they
- 8:17get you when you're at a peak, right?
- 8:19They get you when you're at the mountain top.
- 8:21That's how they get you gotcha going get you.
- 8:23They get you while you're at the mountaintop when you when you're
- 8:25peeking, that's when they come and get you.
- 8:28So they I said I'm not telling you not to date down in
- 8:31quotation mark. I'm just saying make sure you
- 8:33vet this person good because they'll pull you down.
- 8:35They'll pull you back down to the depths.
- 8:37They'll make you feel like your success doesn't mean anything
- 8:39because to them it makes them jealous and they don't want to
- 8:40hear about it. They minimize your successes.
- 8:43They minimize your accomplishments.
- 8:45They minimize it, you know, they minimize that type of stuff
- 8:49because a lot of times when I'm, when I'm talking to people,
- 8:51y'all, I'll talk to people. I was like, so why did you date
- 8:53this person? You were at this high level.
- 8:55Why'd you date this person? I was lonely.
- 8:58I feel like I had everything. I, I felt like Lee, I felt like
- 9:01I was lonely. I felt like I had everything
- 9:03else in my life was going well and but I didn't have anything.
- 9:06I didn't have a person to share it with and I just have to meet
- 9:09this person. They fit most of my criteria.
- 9:13There was some red flags. There's some look they fit, they
- 9:15fit. They fit most of my they fit
- 9:17most of my criteria. You know they they, they hit me
- 9:19with a couple of these. There are a couple of leaves are
- 9:21thrown around, but I ignored them.
- 9:23A couple of leaves are thrown around.
- 9:25I ignored them right, But now things have changed and did it
- 9:30did it Is that you mean this what happens right there?
- 9:32Y'all they get you. They do this type of stuff to
- 9:35you and then they mess with you, they pull you down because like
- 9:39I said, you've seen the red flags and they saw once, once
- 9:41they have you, once they have you in love or trapped or
- 9:44whatever with a baby on the way or whatever it is, they start to
- 9:46stay, start to show you their true colors and they start to
- 9:48pull you down off their mountain top.
- 9:49They make your life unhappy as hell.
- 9:52And sometimes I talked to I talked to a woman like this last
- 9:55night and she was just like, you know, even though he was doing
- 9:58bad stuff, I was afraid to be alone.
- 10:01So because I was afraid to be alone, I, I overlooked a lot of
- 10:04stuff. You have to be comfortable.
- 10:06Be like being by yourself, y'all be happy being by yourself when
- 10:09you're at the mountain top and the person, the right person
- 10:12will come to you. I promise you.
- 10:14I promise you. Because like I said earlier, you
- 10:16can meet a person in the valley. You can meet people while you're
- 10:18vulnerable. Like if that happens, that
- 10:20happens a lot, y'all. You meet people in your times of
- 10:23need and vulnerability. And then like when you meet
- 10:26people, when you're in the valley, in the valley of grief,
- 10:29that it doesn't mean the valley, the valley of financial ruin,
- 10:32you meet people in the valley of financial grief like you're sad,
- 10:35like you're sad, not financial grief like you're sad.
- 10:38You just lost somebody. You just broke up with somebody.
- 10:39You just got divorced, you're separated.
- 10:41You just, you just got cheated on, right?
- 10:44You meet people when you're sad, you just got fired.
- 10:48When you meet people and you're sad and you feel like they help
- 10:50you out of this. You feel like they help you out
- 10:52and they, they, they are there for you for a little while.
- 10:55You fight, feel like you owe them something.
- 11:00You might feel like you owe them something because they helped
- 11:02you out of this valley. They helped you out when you
- 11:04were sad. They helped you out when you
- 11:06were hurting. So you might feel like you owe
- 11:08this person something. If you feel like you owe this
- 11:09person something, you're more likely to stay with this person
- 11:12through because you feel like you owe this person something.
- 11:14Well, they cheated on me, but they helped me when my mom
- 11:16passed away. Yeah, they cheated on me, but
- 11:18they helped me pay the rent when I got fired from my job.
- 11:21You see what I'm saying? They hit me, but they did.
- 11:24They were there with my my, my pet ferret ran off.
- 11:29You forgive them for stuff because you feel like you owe
- 11:31them for something. When you when you at the
- 11:34mountain top, when you at the peak of your life, you forgive
- 11:36them because you feel like you missed you.
- 11:39You feel like you want this person because you feel like you
- 11:41need them because you're lonely. You see what I'm saying?
- 11:43Meet people when you're in the middle.
- 11:46When you're in the middle, meet people here.
- 11:48When you don't meet people when you have a lot of self love,
- 11:51when you don't need this person, you don't feel like you owe this
- 11:53person shit. Meet them here because you don't
- 11:57owe them anything. They like I said, you don't owe
- 12:00them nothing. You owe you.
- 12:03Eric Thomas has a book called You owe you.
- 12:05You owe you. You don't owe them anything.
- 12:08Meet people when you don't need them.
- 12:10Meet people when you only want to have somebody in your life he
- 12:13likes and they start acting up. They show you a red flag.
- 12:15You take the throne out the window.
- 12:16You throw them out the window. Not physically.
- 12:19You go to you not physically throw them out the window.
- 12:21You go to jail, but you throw them out the window.
- 12:24They don't deserve you, you know, meet people when you don't
- 12:29need them. Meet people when you are happy
- 12:31to be by yourself. Meet people then.
- 12:34Because when you meet people, when you're, when you meet
- 12:36people in your times of need or your times of success or your
- 12:39times of like want and hurt and pain, you feel like you grow
- 12:42these, you grow these weird attachments to them.
- 12:45You grow to like, it's like you're attaching a different,
- 12:48like, you know, movie avatar, you're attaching a different,
- 12:50like little, you know how the avatars had a little dread, the
- 12:52little blue dread? You're attaching a different
- 12:54dread to them. It's unnecessary.
- 12:57You have the unnecessary connections tool and the more
- 13:00connections you have to this person, the hardness to break
- 13:02free. Break it off when they start
- 13:04doing horrible stuff to you. So meet people when you want
- 13:08them and you don't need them. Meet people.
- 13:10You have a lot of self love. Meet people when you have worked
- 13:12on yourself enough they feel like OK, now it's time for a
- 13:15partner. I love me.
- 13:17I'm not afraid to walk away when some crazy shit starts
- 13:19happening, when you start acting up.
- 13:20I'm not afraid to walk away because I know I know I love me
- 13:22more than I love you and that's not narcissism to love yourself
- 13:26more than you love somebody else.
- 13:27It's narcissism. When you love somebody else to
- 13:29the detriment of them, you love yourself to the detriment of
- 13:32others. You know?
