Transcript
- 0:00In order to get a narcissist to do what you want them to do, you
- 0:04have to ask yourself this one question.
- 0:07How does this benefit them? Seems super simple, right?
- 0:12If you're new here, my name is Lee Hammock.
- 0:14I'm a diagnosed narcissist and welcome to another episode of
- 0:16The Narcissist Code. So getting a narcissist to do
- 0:38what you want them to do, it's kind of like manipulating the
- 0:41narcissist, right? No.
- 0:42Let's go and cut the cut through the red tape.
- 0:45I know there's some people out there, but like, lady, this
- 0:47video sounds so manipulative. You evil bastard.
- 0:50We knew it. We knew the evil was still
- 0:51there, Lee. I could feel it.
- 0:53There's people, there's people in my comment section who say
- 0:55things like that. Lee, I can feel the evil coming
- 0:57from this video. And I'm like, what?
- 1:01I can feel the evil. I can feel the evil coming
- 1:05through this. Lee, I know who you are.
- 1:07I knew what type of person you are.
- 1:09I'm like, oh, my God. It's pretty funny.
- 1:12But that's what ends up happening.
- 1:13Yeah. Like, if you want a narcissist
- 1:15to do what you want, you have to ask yourself this question.
- 1:19How does this benefit them? Seriously.
- 1:25Because it's an it's an important question.
- 1:27And I know people just like, well, to hell with that.
- 1:30Yeah. Yeah, there's not this is is
- 1:32this a foolproof plan? No, this does not work on every
- 1:37single narcissist. Let's get that out of the way
- 1:38right now for people just like Lee.
- 1:40I tried it and it didn't work. I'm telling you, there's not
- 1:42every single narcissist is not the same.
- 1:44That's, that's a video coming up here pretty soon.
- 1:46But every single narcissist is not the same.
- 1:48So all these tactics right here don't work on every single
- 1:51narcissist. Like try something that works,
- 1:53find something that works. You like you have to study your
- 1:56narcissistic opponent, right? I'm using the word opponent, but
- 1:59they're not really opponent, right?
- 2:02They're not really your opponent.
- 2:05They're your partner or whoever it is.
- 2:07They're like when you're dealing with this type of person you
- 2:10have, this is one thing that you absolutely have to understand is
- 2:12this, this is who they are, right?
- 2:14At the end of the day, this is who they are.
- 2:17So it's just like ask your like study them.
- 2:19What do they like? What do they get out of this?
- 2:22Well, Lee, I want them to agree to this, this amount of Co
- 2:25parenting time and this right here.
- 2:27I want them to agree to let me have full custody.
- 2:29I want them to agree to just drop the Roshain or whatever.
- 2:31I want them to agree to do this. Like, I get what you want, but
- 2:37how does this benefit them? That's the question you have to
- 2:41ask right there. How is this?
- 2:43How is you asking them this or them doing this for you?
- 2:46How does this benefit them? They have to get something from
- 2:50it. Like in order to get a
- 2:52narcissist to move to do what you want them to do, they have
- 2:55to get something from it. Now I know that sounds like out
- 2:58the way, right? Because sometimes you can force
- 3:00them to do it, right? You can just go to court and win
- 3:02a court battle and then they'll have to do what you want them to
- 3:04do, right? Sometimes in certain situations,
- 3:07right? Sometimes you have to force them
- 3:08to do it, but what most times if you, if there is there, if
- 3:11you're, if it's not going to court worthy or you've been to
- 3:15court for it and it's already been decided and you didn't get
- 3:17the results that you want, ask yourself right here, how does
- 3:20this benefit them? How does leaving you alone or
- 3:23stop texting you in the middle of the night or moving on or
- 3:27like I said, the Co parenting time, How does it work for them?
- 3:31What do they get from this? This is when you have to put
- 3:33yourself in the shoes of a narcissist, right?
- 3:35You have to squeeze your little tiny empathetic feet or large
- 3:38empathetic feet, right? You have to squeeze your little
- 3:40empathetic feet into their size 29 clown shoe and see how it
- 3:46benefits them. Like put yourself in the mind of
- 3:48a narcissist. And there's the, the, the dark,
- 3:51damp, moist mind of a narcissist.
- 3:55That sounds like a swamp doughnut.
- 3:58Put yourself in the swamp mind of a narcissist and ask yourself
- 4:02that question right there. Like how on earth does this
- 4:04right here benefit them directly?
- 4:07Because I'm, I can guarantee you one thing.
- 4:09They are asking themselves this question.
- 4:11They're going to that question is going to run through the mind
- 4:14of a narcissist and they might look, not only will it run
- 4:16through the mind of a narcissist, sometimes they'll
- 4:18ask you straight up. They'll ask you directly, what
- 4:21am I getting from this? How does this benefit me?
- 4:23They'll ask you straight up, what, how does this benefit me?
- 4:27What am I getting from this? What?
- 4:29Huh. Can you please elaborate on the
- 4:32benefits for me? Why would I do that?
- 4:35That's just me giving up everything.
- 4:36I'm not getting anything from this.
- 4:38Well I want them to agree to give me 75% custody and they
- 4:41won't agree to it even though I got the baby 75% of the time
- 4:44anyway. What?
- 4:45How do I do it right here? Sometimes you have to make it
- 4:47seem like, hey, look, I know you like your weekends.
- 4:50I know you like this date right here.
- 4:52Why don't you just give me look? Why don't why don't cause 25%
- 4:56custody Sounds like a little bit, right?
- 4:58It sounds like you're not being a good another parent, right?
- 5:01But you get the free time that you always been asking for.
- 5:04That way, if we already have this agreement, you won't have
- 5:06to reach out to me and ask. And I know you don't like
- 5:08talking to me. Do you feel this mutual?
- 5:11Just kidding, but how so you can take custody.
- 5:15Like I said, you can still get, you'll still be a parent, but
- 5:18now you get your weekend. You can get your weekends free.
- 5:20You don't have to find a babysitter or whatever, you
- 5:22know, and you can still talk to them.
- 5:23If you want to call and talk to them, by all means, you want to
- 5:26change up a day or two, by all means you can come get them.
- 5:28Like I'm willing to work with you.
- 5:30Boom. That benefits them in some way
- 5:32because you sold it. That could work because you sold
- 5:34it to them as a benefit to them. You get your weekends back, you
- 5:37get your weekends free again like you want to.
- 5:39You can travel, you can do whatever you want to do and if
- 5:41you want to, you want to change the day up, you still can make
- 5:44it benefit them in some way, shape or form.
- 5:46And this is not y'all, this is not me telling you have to give
- 5:48in to their demands. You're not Look, I know you have
- 5:52you y'all probably hear the term we don't negotiate with
- 5:54terrorists, right? We don't negotiate with
- 5:56terrorists. And I agree you don't.
- 5:58We don't negotiate with an emotional terrorist.
- 6:00You don't do that right? But when you're dealing with a
- 6:05narcissistic person, it's just like sometimes you have to make
- 6:08it a win win situation where you're getting what you want and
- 6:13they feel like they're getting what they want.
- 6:16You see, it's the feel. They feel like they're getting
- 6:19what they want. They might not actually be
- 6:21getting it right, but they feel like it.
- 6:23Well, Lee, that sounds like you telling us to manipulate them.
- 6:26Yeah, not all manipulation is bad, I promise you.
- 6:29Sometimes you got to manipulate your kids to take medicines.
- 6:31Sometimes, right? Here comes the airplane.
- 6:34Or eat their vegetables. Here comes the airplane.
- 6:36Open up. Here's the airplane.
- 6:41You manipulated your child right there.
- 6:42Those, those squashed peas with those green peas that you knew
- 6:46were not, you knew you, you, you manipulated that one time.
- 6:49You told them it was # cake, but it was actually cornbread.
- 6:52That's manipulation, y'all. But it's healthier.
- 6:57You see what I'm saying? Now, all to me now, all
- 6:59manipulation is bad, right? You know, I'm not telling you to
- 7:02be a sinister manipulator. Were you sitting in there like,
- 7:07no, you're not scheming. You're actually doing the things
- 7:10that are going to benefit for the greater good, the greater
- 7:12benefit here, right? It's a nod.
- 7:14That's the direction you have to take it in.
- 7:16You have to take it in the way that's going to benefit
- 7:18everybody the most because I'm just.
- 7:20Yeah, I'm being real with you. And I tell you this, that
- 7:22narcissistic person is going to keep doing this type of stuff
- 7:25because at the end of the day, again, this benefits them.
- 7:28Like, sometimes messing with you benefits them because like,
- 7:31like, like sometimes, yeah, think about even the bad stuff
- 7:34that they do to you that benefits them because they can
- 7:37get a rise out of you. They can start an argument out
- 7:39of nowhere. They can, they, they know
- 7:41showing up late, showing up 5 minutes late ruins your day,
- 7:45throws you off of your schedule, right?
- 7:48So you have to start start thinking the way that this
- 7:50benefits them. They're saying like if they're
- 7:53getting the benefit from your reaction, sometimes you have to
- 7:55take that away. Like if you're yelling and
- 7:57screaming because they, they can say a certain term or a certain
- 8:00couple of words and it sets you off.
- 8:03They're always going to do that because it sets you off.
- 8:05Why wouldn't I do something that sets you directly off?
- 8:09Because if I'm messing with your, if I'm trying to mess with
- 8:11your head, I want you set off. Don't I?
- 8:14Don't I So ask yourself that question run through these
- 8:18scenarios in your head when you happen to when you were
- 8:20negotiating with a narcissist, right?
- 8:21Or trying to talk to them into doing something that you want to
- 8:24do, letting them like switching up weekends, switching up days
- 8:27or whatever it is. Ask them, look, hey, can you do
- 8:31can you do me a favor? If you asking them like that?
- 8:33Just imagine asking your narcissistic partner or ex or
- 8:36whoever it is that you still are dealing with that you have that
- 8:39you need a favor from them. How they going to take that?
- 8:42You see what I'm saying? Can you do me a favor?
- 8:46They don't, they don't benefit them.
- 8:47How does that benefit them? Instead of saying, can you do me
- 8:49a favor and say, hey, look, if you do this, I'll do this for
- 8:53you. You see how this negotiation,
- 8:55they're getting something from that, right?
- 8:57I'm not saying like I'm not telling you off of no cheeks or
- 8:59nothing like that. We ain't going to the bedroom,
- 9:01no bedroom stuff, right? But if you hey, if you switch
- 9:03this Wednesday, I'll switch a day with you next week.
- 9:07But they are they going to agree to that?
- 9:09Some of them might not because they want you to.
- 9:10They want your life to be hard. Some of them absolutely might
- 9:14not care that you need to switch this day.
- 9:16They don't care if they need to switch a day, they don't care.
- 9:19They want to mess with you, right?
- 9:20Again, this is not a foolproof plan, doesn't work on everybody.
- 9:23But as you move forward, as you continuously move forward and
- 9:26decide what you want to do next, this is these are the type of
- 9:28things are going to be super important for you.
- 9:30Ask yourself that question, how does this benefit them?
- 9:33Because there's going to be an important distinction to make.
- 9:36Because they're, I'm just telling you, the more you move
- 9:38forward, this type of person, the more you deal with this type
- 9:40of person, the more you understand exactly where I'm
- 9:42coming from. Because they're going to keep
- 9:43doing this type of stuff because in in their minds, it's they
- 9:46love it. They get a high from it.
- 9:48Some narcissists absolutely get a high from messing with you.
- 9:50So guess what they were going to keep doing?
- 9:52They'll keep messing with you, right?
- 9:55So ask yourself that question right there.
- 9:57How does this benefit them? How can I win or make it isn't
- 10:02even have to be How does this benefit them?
- 10:04How can I make them feel like they won?
- 10:07How can I make them feel like they're they're getting the most
- 10:10out of this? How can I make them feel like
- 10:12they're defeating me, but I'm still getting what I want right?
- 10:16Sometimes because you, because you, as you know, some
- 10:18narcissists are only out here to try to bring you pain.
- 10:21Some narcissists are only out here to try to hurt you and
- 10:24cause some bring some disarray or some, you know, absolutely
- 10:26just to to make your life harder again.
- 10:30There are some horrible narcissists.
- 10:31There are horrible people out here.
- 10:33They're not they're not out here looking to try to help you do
- 10:35work through anything. They're trying to hurt you.
- 10:38They're absolutely trying to bring pain to you and they do
- 10:40not care. That's the mentality that you
- 10:42face when you have a narcissistic toxic gas line
- 10:45bastard for a partner. But anyway, y'all, thank y'all
