Transcript
- 0:01What is going on, beautiful folks?
- 0:03Today we're going to be answering the question, Were you
- 0:06the love of that narcissistic person's life?
- 0:09Were you the love of their life? Were you the one that got away?
- 0:14If you're new here, my name is Lee Hammock.
- 0:15I'm a diagnosed narcissist and welcome to another episode of
- 0:18The Narcissist Code. I love my theme music, man.
- 0:40I love it. I love it.
- 0:41So yeah, I'm open to people sending me little stingers if
- 0:44y'all want to use like you see, y'all see how the intro goes
- 0:46like this right here, y'all. If y'all want to create a new
- 0:51intro for me, e-mail it to me. I'm willing, more than willing
- 0:53to use one of y'all intros for the Narcissist code or any of my
- 0:56videos and whatnot. Even my videos on the other
- 0:58channel. I'm open to that y'all.
- 0:59If y'all want me to do that, you want, you want to be part of the
- 1:02journey, send it in. I just noticed this is my
- 1:04daughter's like little toy. I was like, what is that little
- 1:06rainbow in the background? But yeah, y'all were you the
- 1:11love of their life? This was a question I get y'all.
- 1:14It's a question I get a lot. So let me go ahead and say this
- 1:17before we get too deep into the episode.
- 1:20Whether you the love of a narcissist life or not does not
- 1:23mean that you should go back to them, right?
- 1:27Whether or not these qualities fit you or whatever I say makes
- 1:31sense to you, it absolutely under no circumstances means
- 1:37that you should go back into that and go back into toxicity.
- 1:41Well, Lee said I was the love of their life, so I could just go
- 1:44back into this abusive relationship.
- 1:45Know the hell it. That's not what it means.
- 1:49That's not what I said. Don't be worried about don't do
- 1:51that to me. I wouldn't do that to you.
- 1:54So don't do that to me, right? We in this together, we got to
- 1:57grow and heal together, right? We try to we we we vibing
- 2:00together Like, no, don't do that to me.
- 2:05But seriously, yeah, narcissistic people, like first
- 2:10of all, kid, narcissists love you in general.
- 2:12I think narcissistic people, a lot of a lot of narcissists,
- 2:14right, do have the ability to love people.
- 2:16But full stop, is it enough love for you, right?
- 2:22Is it the quality of the love that you that you feel like you
- 2:26deserve or did you want for some people to answer the question is
- 2:30going to be yes, right? Because some people, everybody's
- 2:32coming from a different space, right?
- 2:33Everybody's coming from a different location, mental
- 2:36health wise. When I say location, I mean
- 2:38mental health location. Not everybody is of sound mind
- 2:41and body, right? We all have our own struggles
- 2:43with our own, with our mental health and things like that that
- 2:46are, you know, precipitating within our minds, right?
- 2:49That yeah, that would make sense to people.
- 2:52Like I do think the narcissist can love people, but is it
- 2:56enough? Some people just say yes Lee, I
- 2:58just want them to love me a little bit and I'll stay and
- 3:00I'll go back. No, it's not enough y'all.
- 3:03You deserve more. Wait, you have to believe this
- 3:05yourself y'all. First rant you got to believe
- 3:08that you deserve more than this y'all.
- 3:10You get so conditioned that the bare minimum is great.
- 3:13It is insane narcissist that people do a fucking number on
- 3:16people's minds. Like for real, they really
- 3:19really do. They do a literal number on
- 3:22people's minds. It's like they do so much damn
- 3:26damage to you. It's just like, damn, what
- 3:28happened to me? Why am I thinking like this?
- 3:30Why am I acting like this? Why am I accepting the bare
- 3:32minimum? Why am I accepting these bread
- 3:34crumbs? They treat you so less.
- 3:36They nurses want to be so low effort.
- 3:38They they convince you that bread crumbs are full loaves of
- 3:41bread, right? Well, you ain't been hugged or
- 3:44touched in months. A hug feel like a hug could make
- 3:47you damn shake. That's a great hug, isn't it?
- 3:51Right, It's they're saying if you haven't heard the words I
- 3:53love you in a year, that sounds like it means.
- 3:56So it should be mean so much more, shouldn't it?
- 3:58You ever hear I love you in a whole year?
- 4:00That should mean it should mean so much more to you now that
- 4:03you're hearing it right? That's why they condition you to
- 4:06accept less. They really do.
- 4:08They condition you to accept so much less.
- 4:13We're not accepting. Yeah, it's 2025.
- 4:15I'm bringing the heat. This y'all?
- 4:16I've already noticed in the last few videos I'm talking
- 4:17different. I ain't holding nothing back.
- 4:19Fuck it. This is New Year YouTube, like
- 4:22you say let's go, let's grind. I see other people cussing like
- 4:25wait, man, they cussing so leave.
- 4:27I don't like when you cuss like I'm a cuss sometimes.
- 4:29Y'all, it's just me being real. I can't.
- 4:30I'm just being real. Let's keep it out.
- 4:32Let's keep it going. Let's keep it real, right?
- 4:34Like it's not enough. Well, you the love of their
- 4:38life. It depends.
- 4:41Y'all like narcissistic people. You could you be the one that
- 4:44got away. Yeah, but you have to get away,
- 4:47right? You have to get away.
- 4:50They might have treated you differently than anybody else.
- 4:53They might have actually felt differently about you than they
- 4:56did about anybody else. But it doesn't mean that they're
- 4:59going to give you what you need. And that's crazy, right?
- 5:03You could be the love of a narcissist life, right?
- 5:07Give them everything that they've been asking for you
- 5:10answer y'all. You could be literally the
- 5:12answer to their prayers. They can pray right to whoever
- 5:15they pray to. They might pray to God, right?
- 5:17You could be the answer to their literal prayers and they still
- 5:21treat you like crap. They still treat you like dirt.
- 5:24It's crazy. Just because you, the love of
- 5:26their life, and I might, they might tell you this.
- 5:29I've never felt this way by anybody else.
- 5:30But they still treat you like crap.
- 5:32What sense does that make? I've never felt this way about
- 5:36anybody else, but I'm still going to treat you like shit.
- 5:40What's it? Yeah.
- 5:41What In what? In what world does that make
- 5:43sense to anybody? Right.
- 5:46In what world does that make sense to you?
- 5:51That's what I'm trying to get into people's hands.
- 5:52Like, yeah, this is the mentality that so many people
- 5:55face right here that you run into narcissistic people when
- 5:58they give you a little bit, they treat it like a lot.
- 6:01I, you know, you're not my I'm feeling I treat you better than
- 6:04I treated my ex. I used to beat her ass.
- 6:06I only slap you. What?
- 6:09I love you more than I love my ex because I I only slap you.
- 6:13But I used to just full on well on them and beat the ass.
- 6:17I used to jump on them and try to choke them out.
- 6:19But for you, I just hit you in the back of the head.
- 6:21I only want to leave. I don't know.
- 6:22I just hit you in the back of the head, 'cause I don't want to
- 6:24leave. I don't want to leave any
- 6:24bruises on you. I love you so much.
- 6:27I care about you so much that I'm treating you better than I
- 6:30treated the other people. But it's still less than what
- 6:33you deserve. What?
- 6:33Yeah, that's literally the mentality.
- 6:36That's the mindset. I'm treating you better than
- 6:38any. I'm treating you better than
- 6:41anybody else that I've ever encountered.
- 6:44But I'm still not giving you what you deserve.
- 6:47I'm still not maximizing the relation, our relationship.
- 6:50I'm still not treating you good. Think about that right there.
- 6:54They're treating you better than they treated their ex.
- 6:58The ex that might have reached out to you and warned you that
- 7:00this person was abusive and neglectful and this, this, that,
- 7:03right? They're treating you better than
- 7:05they treated their ex, but they're still treating you like
- 7:08crap. They're still not giving you
- 7:09what you want and need. But you keep thinking like,
- 7:13damn, they are treating me better than their ex.
- 7:14It that doesn't mean it's a good thing.
- 7:18Like to be the one that got away, you have to get away or it
- 7:23doesn't really fully make sense, does it?
- 7:27If you think about from that perspective right there, it
- 7:29doesn't. You can't be the one that got
- 7:31away if you never, ever get away.
- 7:34Like to be the love of a narcissist's life.
- 7:37It seemed like it. It seemed like it would mean
- 7:39more than what it actually means, right?
- 7:42It seems like it would carry more weight then it actually
- 7:47carries, doesn't it? It seemed like it would carry
- 7:50more weight than it actually carries.
- 7:52It seemed like we were doing more.
- 7:54It would be just doing it would be giving you more.
- 7:56It would provide you more than what it's actually doing, now,
- 8:00wouldn't it? But it never really does.
- 8:03It never is. These relationships are never as
- 8:05fulfilling as you think, as you think that they are, as they as
- 8:09they are sometimes made out to be.
- 8:11The narcissistic person is never really giving you what you need
- 8:14and what you want or what you deserve.
- 8:16They're giving you what they think that they they're giving
- 8:18you what they think you accept. They're giving you what they're
- 8:20willing to give you to keep you there.
- 8:22The love of their life is not a good title to have when you're
- 8:25dealing with an abuser, right? It's like dealing you deal
- 8:30dealing with a serial unaliver, right?
- 8:33And they unalived all their exes, but they only beat your
- 8:37ass. You're the love of their life.
- 8:39I I used, I used to put everybody else in the dirt but
- 8:43you. I can't be alive.
- 8:44You know, I treat you horrible. I beat you, but you could be in
- 8:47the dirt. They condition you to think like
- 8:50whatever they condition you to think that that's cool.
- 8:52God damn. You know what, you're right, I
- 8:56could absolutely be in a dirt right now, but I'm not.
- 8:58I'm alive, I'm well, I'm doing pretty decent.
- 9:02You know I'm doing pretty decently.
- 9:05I'm alive and well. I'm I'm actually living a pretty
- 9:08decent life right now. This is crazy how this works,
- 9:11isn't it? Wow, damn, that's crazy y'all.
- 9:16They convinced you that being a love of their life is a great
- 9:18moniker to have. And are some people willing to
- 9:22accept that moniker regardless of what it comes with?
- 9:24Yes, absolutely. I've talked to a bunch of them
- 9:26right there. I talked to a bunch of people
- 9:28that are willing to accept less because they at least they at
- 9:31least they know that they're loved by this person at this at
- 9:33this time, at this point in time, right?
- 9:35Well, at least I'm there's something at least I'm the love
- 9:37of something, right? At least I get something out of
- 9:39it, right? It's, it's, it can be sad to see
- 9:42what people are willing to accept, but that's the that's
- 9:44the mindset of a lot of people right there, right?
- 9:46Because like some people I've talked to, they have their own
- 9:48personality disorders, they have their own mental health issues
- 9:50that they're struggling with. So they are willing to accept
- 9:52this less than stellar behavior. I believe he told me how the
- 9:57love of his life, but he cheats on me every single day.
- 10:00He cheated on me. Like, I mean the very one of the
- 10:02very first one on ones I did y'all, it was a woman that said
- 10:06she she's like her, her partner cheats on her so much and she's
- 10:10angry because he doesn't have enough.
- 10:12She had enough. She he doesn't have enough
- 10:13energy to just sleep with her. She's like, it just breaks my
- 10:17heart and he's cheating on me over 100 times and he just
- 10:19doesn't sleep with me anymore. I was like, he tired, you know,
- 10:23he's tired of my daughter cheating.
- 10:25He got enough energy. Oh, it's like 50-60 years old
- 10:28out here cheating somebody. He got enough energy, you know,
- 10:30she laughed, but she was hurting, right?
- 10:34And it's just like she was willing to accept that as long
- 10:36as he would sleep with her. But he that's the break that the
- 10:38strata broke the camel's back that he wasn't willing to sleep
- 10:40with her no more. He's willing to keep her around
- 10:42and be in a relationship with her, but everything else is off
- 10:44limits. No, no, I mean, we ain't doing
- 10:45that. We don't need, we don't need, we
- 10:46don't need to do anything else. We just need to do what we've
- 10:48been doing right now, right? We just need to be, we just need
- 10:51to get out. We just need to do what we've
- 10:52been what we've been doing. Nothing else, nothing more,
- 10:54nothing less, you know, But that's, they try to convince you
- 10:57that you should accept this less this, this less that like, hey,
- 11:01you love my life, you know? And then when you do, if you do
- 11:05leave them, they'll tell you that some of them will tell you
- 11:08that you they don't want you to be the one that got away.
- 11:11I regret everything that I put you through.
- 11:13I regret that I'm here by myself.
- 11:15I I miss you so much. I'm hurting so much.
- 11:18I have so much pain in my heart. And they make their, yeah, they
- 11:21make their apologies about them, right?
- 11:25They make their the way that the way narcissists apologize, they
- 11:28either offer blanket state, blanket statement apologies
- 11:31where it's just an all-encompassing apology, or
- 11:34they make the apology about how they feel, not what they did,
- 11:38how they feel about everything, right?
- 11:41How they feel about literally everything.
- 11:43They make the apology about their feelings, their struggle,
- 11:47and you know what I mean? And whatnot.
- 11:49How this would be another video right there, how narcissists
- 11:51apologize. I'm gonna go deeper into that
- 11:52right there, y'all. So we make sure you tune in to
- 11:55that one. How Norris's apologize, but
- 11:58that's how that's the the struggle that so many people
- 12:00face right there is that we're trying to heal.
- 12:03You're trying to grow, you're trying to make ends meet, you're
- 12:05trying to make your relationship ends meet, but you're dealing
- 12:07with an abuser and it just doesn't a lot of times it
- 12:09doesn't resonate and make sense with you as you're trying to
- 12:12make it through these situations, right.
- 12:15The love of a narcissist's life is not a, a, a moniker that
- 12:20should be bragged about because so many people that means you're
- 12:23that means if you're still with them, you might be probably
- 12:26settling for less. Ask yourself, take a look, take
- 12:28a give you, I call it, I call it in a lot of people, they call it
- 12:31the 30,000 foot perspective, right?
- 12:35Take a step back and look and see what you actually see, what
- 12:38you're actually experiencing, what's actually going on, you
- 12:41know, because that can actually absolutely help you heal.
- 12:45It can help you separate yourself free.
- 12:47Like it's just like, damn, am I really accepting less to be with
- 12:50this person just because they called me the love of their
- 12:53life? They, they can, they can tell
- 12:54you that they they can tell you that you're the love of their
- 12:57lives, But are they treating you like you to love?
- 12:59Are they treating you like the love of like, are they treating
- 13:03you like you're the love of their life?
- 13:05Are they treating you like it's the it's it's a worthy title to
- 13:09just take home like I'm the love of their life.
- 13:12Yay. Or, you know, is this something
- 13:15to brag about to your friends about to your friends and family
- 13:18about? Or is it just something you have
- 13:19to keep under wraps? Like this abuser said that I was
- 13:22the love of their life. Should I who should I tell?
- 13:25Who can I tell? Who can I run to and tell this
- 13:27to? Who can I share this with that
- 13:29it will make sense to them, right?
- 13:32That's what you have to decide right there.
- 13:33Y'all. That's literally what you have
- 13:35to decide when you're dealing with an abuser, dealing with an
- 13:38abusive person. Yeah, again, you, to be the one
- 13:41that got away, you actually have to get away, right?
- 13:45To be the one that escape, you actually have to escape, don't
- 13:47you? You know what I mean?
- 13:48Being with y'all ain't going to let this run on too long.
- 13:51Y'all be safe, take care of yourselves.
- 13:53And y'all, you don't want to settle for less.
- 13:55And a lot of times in relationships with narcissists,
- 13:57you are in fact settling for less than what you deserve, you
- 14:01know, But they convince you that you're actually getting more
- 14:04than what you deserve. They convinced you that you're,
- 14:07you're actually being treated amazingly, like you're being
- 14:10treated in a stellar manner. You should be proud of how you,
- 14:13you should be happy to that they, that they, that they are
- 14:16with you and not anybody else, right?
- 14:19They treat everybody else worse than they treating you.
- 14:21But you're still not getting what you want.
