- 1:02Y'all in the mind of a narcissist, face to face works
- 1:05best. I know you might feel the same
- 1:07way. Y'all this is not like just
- 1:09because they want to be face to face doesn't automatically mean
- 1:11that they're narcissists. But a lot of narcissists want to
- 1:13meet you face to face because they know that's the best way to
- 1:16get you back. They'll beg and plead you.
- 1:19They'll try to look. They'll try to make you feel.
- 1:23They'll try to make you feel guilty.
- 1:26Literally. They will absolutely try to make
- 1:28you feel guilty about not wanting to see them face to
- 1:31face. You never love me.
- 1:34If you ever love, if you ever love me, you would meet me at
- 1:39our favorite restaurant, downtown Raleigh, and you would
- 1:43come, your favorite in your black dress with the boots on.
- 1:50And you would listen to you would dance with me one more
- 1:52time. Please.
- 1:53You know, if you ever cared about me, if you ever left me,
- 1:56you would meet there. You know, if you don't meet me,
- 2:02I don't even want to live anymore.
- 2:05If you don't meet me right now, I'm going to take my If you
- 2:09don't meet me right now, I'm going to take my Tesla and I'm
- 2:13going to auto drive it right into a tree.
- 2:18I'm. I'm going to ramp my cyber truck
- 2:20into an oak tree and end it all because they because you don't
- 2:25want to be with them anymore. They want to see you imagine,
- 2:29right, taking a cyber truck and driving into an oak tree because
- 2:32you're mad your ex burger with you.
- 2:35But that happens. Y'all like, seriously, that's
- 2:38the I'm sorry, that's the mindset of a lot of narcissistic
- 2:42people. They will try to make you feel
- 2:44guilty so they so they can get you one last time face to face.
- 2:48They want to see like they they want like even though
- 2:50narcissists you, you, it's hard to get them to be emotionally
- 2:54vulnerable to you. In their minds, if they see you
- 2:57face to face, they're look, they're conjuring up all the
- 3:00emotions that they get, Any emotion they they got in their
- 3:04body, they conjuring it up like the most.
- 3:07If they got any kind of emotion in their in a little toe on
- 3:11their left foot, they're conjuring it up.
- 3:14They're trying to get it to bubble to the surface so they
- 3:17can they can come and manipulate you so they can, so they can
- 3:20come and try to hurt you with it, right.
- 3:22Like they're trying to get their emotions to raise to the surface
- 3:26so that they can do some damage to you emotionally, not
- 3:29physically. You know what I mean?
- 3:31They they're they're hoping that you see they're they're hoping
- 3:33it face to face for some. Closure.
- 3:36Did you going to see them? They might actually shed a tear,
- 3:39like they might come with the vising eye drops and just start
- 3:42dropping them, you know what I mean?
- 3:44Just start dropping them. Hair drops, hair drop, something
- 3:46under the table and to be vising they'd be underneath the table
- 3:49like, look what you got me doing.
- 3:53I tell myself I wasn't going to cry.
- 3:56I told myself I wasn't going to cry and look at me crying.
- 4:00They want to see, see you face to face because they think that
- 4:03you see their emotions, that they can remind you of the good
- 4:06times. You see the face it the face,
- 4:09the body it's attached to to the person that you fell in love
- 4:12with, right? The person that you initially
- 4:15fell in love with. When you during the love bombing
- 4:17phase, that person, that face is attached to that person, right?
- 4:22So they're assuming that if you see this face attached to this
- 4:26body that you're going to fall back in love with them.
- 4:29Even though the inside is different, the outside looks the
- 4:31same. The inside has changed up
- 4:33dramatically. The person you love, the person
- 4:35you love, is gone. Internally, externally, the
- 4:39shell is still the same. You mean the shell is still the
- 4:42same. The insides have been mixed up.
- 4:44It's like, you know, you take, you take a soda, I ain't going
- 4:46to shake my soda up. I like it.
- 4:47You know, you shake, you shake a soda up, the insides change,
- 4:51right? The outside is still the same,
- 4:53but the insides change up dramatically.
- 4:56So if you're dealing with a narcissistic person, they want
- 4:58you to see the shell. They want to present that.
- 5:00They want to present the shell one more time to you, so
- 5:03hopefully you can connect to the old times.
- 5:06You can connect to the good times.
- 5:07You can connect to the times when things weren't so bad.
- 5:09You can connect to the times when they weren't lying to you.
- 5:12You can connect to the times when they make weren't cheating
- 5:14on you. You connect to the times when
- 5:16they weren't gaslighting you and lying, putting their hands on
- 5:18you, whatever it is, screaming and yelling at you in public,
- 5:21embarrassing you, invalidating you.
- 5:23They want you to connect to the old times when things were
- 5:25better, right? That's what they want.
- 5:29They shouldn't get it, but that's what they want.
- 5:31They want one last time, one last chance to manipulate you.
- 5:35They like, say this is a continuation.
- 5:36If you're a narcissist, ever ask you for face to face closure.
- 5:39They don't want closure. They want a continuance.
- 5:41They don't want to be look, they don't want to be sentenced.
- 5:46They don't want to be sentenced. They want to continue.
- 5:49It's like going to court. They want a continuance.
- 5:52You know, they already, they already.
- 5:54All the evidence is in there. All the evidence is against
- 5:56them. They go, they going to court.
- 5:57You take it. Look, you take it in the impact
- 5:59court, you know you've you've they've been found guilty, Mr.
- 6:04or Mrs. Narcissist. You've been found guilty by a
- 6:08jury, one person, a one person jury of your peer, of your of
- 6:12your ex peer. Now it's time for the
- 6:15sentencing. They're asking for a
- 6:16continuance. They want a, they want a, they
- 6:18want a relationship continuance. They don't want closure.
- 6:21They don't want to be sentenced to no contact, no access.
- 6:26This is the last time you ever going to talk.
- 6:27This is the last time you ever hear from me.
- 6:29They don't want that. They want to continue.
- 6:31They want a continuation of the abuse cycle.
- 6:33They want to continue to hurt you.
- 6:34They want to continue to manipulate you.
- 6:35They want to continue to put you through these horrible, horrible
- 6:39times because that's what they want to do.
- 6:41You know, that's what they do. That's what they're going to
- 6:44keep doing to you. Because why wouldn't they?
- 6:46Why would they stop? Let's keep it real.
- 6:48Why would they stop? They might stop for a little
- 6:51while. They might convince you one time
- 6:52to take them back, right? They might stop for a little
- 6:54while. Things might go back to the
- 6:55things might go back to normal, but then they're going to check
- 6:59the soda type up again, right? They're going to go back to the
- 7:01abusive, toxic ass person that you're trying to get away from.
- 7:06They're going to go do that. That's what narcissists want to
- 7:09do. Y'all That's literally the
- 7:10mindset of it all right there. They don't want to negotiate
- 7:13with you. They don't want to do things.
- 7:15They don't want to be your friends.
- 7:16They want to get over on you. They want to do damage to you
- 7:19emotionally one more time. They don't want look, they might
- 7:22not even want you anymore. They just don't want anybody
- 7:24else to have you, you know? They might not want you anymore.
- 7:28They might Look can we look look I.
- 7:30Just want one. Look, I know you don't want to
- 7:33be with me, but can we start over?
- 7:35Can we please just be friends? Please, please just friends with
- 7:39benefits. And the benefits is clapping
- 7:41cheeks every once in a while. The benefits is the half of the
- 7:44family. The benefits is getting married
- 7:45and moving in together and and running away.
- 7:48The benefits are living happily after you know, friends, friends
- 7:54and benefits. You know, that's what I'm just
- 7:55telling you. Do not meet them face to face.
- 7:57I know some of y'all want to meet them face to face.
- 7:59I I got people in my support group.
- 8:01If y'all don't know, I do have a support group called Mental
- 8:03Healers where we talk. We meet 2-3 times a week over
- 8:06zoom, we chat, we talk about goal setting and things like
- 8:09that. Links in the description of
- 8:10every video and podcast. I do.
- 8:12Mental healers. It's a private group.
- 8:13It's not on Facebook, Instagram, it's the mental healers.
- 8:15It's on a different server. But people just like, please,
- 8:19just. Let me do.
- 8:19This please, can I do this? You know me, they like people in
- 8:22our group. I like, they want more face to
- 8:25face closure, whatever. I I understand that y'all would
- 8:27like don't get sucked back in to that the the, the, the myth of
- 8:31closure because that's what they're holding it like they
- 8:33they want, they want to dangle the myth of closure.
- 8:35And I know you as a person, you might want closure as well.
- 8:39But this I'm here to tell you that closure is something that
- 8:42you give to yourself and other people are just like no closure.
- 8:44I heard that before. Y'all, sometimes you got to, you
- 8:47got to listen to people. You got to get out of your own
- 8:49way, put your own ego to the side because yes, so, like
- 8:53empaths and codependent people have egos as well.
- 8:55Put your own ego to the side and just understand that there's
- 8:58nothing that this person can say to you to to your face that's
- 9:02going to change how you feel. There's going to close the
- 9:05relationship chapter up. There's there's nothing they can
- 9:08say to. What can they say to you?
- 9:09Well, let's drive. You're not going to ride within
- 9:11the sunset one last time and say goodbye to this person.
- 9:14That's not how it goes. That's fairy tale shit.
- 9:17You know what I mean? I gotta be cussing.
- 9:20I don't like, I don't know how to get the videos preview, but
- 9:23it happens sometimes I get passionate.
- 9:25I love I love this. I love doing this.
- 9:27But that's what I'm just telling you right now as a person to you
- 9:30right now face to face the this is right now.
- 9:32I'm telling you face to face. You listen to me.
- 9:35You don't need to sit down with them.
- 9:37You don't need to face to face closure.
- 9:39They, they they when they when they had, when they had every
- 9:42opportunity to your face to treat you better, they didn't do
- 9:46it. So why in the hell would you
- 9:48give them one last time to do it.
- 9:50Because sometimes they won't like you hear this you hear this
- 9:53in some of these magazines and some of these newspapers, some
- 9:55of these articles online, right. They they wanted to meet.
- 9:57They they met up one last time. Things didn't go the way they
- 10:00planned and somebody ended up losing their life.
- 10:03So this this face to face meeting could be because they
- 10:06haven't seen you in a long time. You change your pattern up, you
- 10:09moved away so they can't find you.
- 10:11And when they finally see you face to face, they go ahead and
- 10:13send you, and I'm out of here. You lose your life.
- 10:17For for face to face, you don't need it.
- 10:19Face to face. Closure.
- 10:21Closure was a disrespect. Closure was how they treated you
- 10:25when they had you face to face, when they had every opportunity
- 10:28to your face to be better, they chose not to.
- 10:34So that's what I'm telling you right there.
- 10:35Closure is a myth. You don't need face to face.
- 10:39They don't. They want to meet you face to
- 10:40face because it benefits them. It doesn't benefit you.
- 10:43It benefits them. They're still being fake.
- 10:45They're still being selfish. If anything, they're if they're
- 10:47banging and pleading and they try to make you feel guilty
- 10:50about not wanting to meet them face to face, that just shows
- 10:52you more who they are. It's still about them.
- 10:55I deserve closure. I me, I'm hurting.
- 10:59But I'm. I'm.
- 11:00I'm going to run my cyber truck into a tree.
- 11:05It's still about them. The face to face it may may.
- 11:09They might try to make it seem like it's equal.
- 11:12There. There.
- 11:13There might be some reciprocity. No, it's still about them at the
- 11:17end of the day. So you have a choice to make.
- 11:19It's your life. You have to live your life the
- 11:21way you want to live. At the end of the day.
- 11:23Y'all. But anyways, y'all.
