- 0:02Today we're going to be talking about what happens and how do
- 0:04narcissists feel if you disappear on them, if you just
- 0:08ghost them? If you're new here, my name is
- 0:10Lee Hammock. I'm a diagnosed narcissist.
- 0:13And welcome to another episode of The Narcissist Code.
- 0:32So boom, welcome back folks, welcome back, welcome back.
- 0:34Yes, yes, yes, Yep, Yep, Yep, Yep, Yep, Yep.
- 0:37Before we hop deep into today's episode, y'all, if you haven't
- 0:39already, make sure to check out my kids book on Amazon.
- 0:42Remember, it's not your fault. It's a good conversation starter
- 0:45for you to have those tough conversations with your kids
- 0:47about toxic relationship dynamics, telling the truth,
- 0:50body positivity, all the other good stuff, loving yourself.
- 0:53Remember, it's not your fault. But yes, y'all come on now, come
- 0:58on, come on, come on. What?
- 1:02How do narcissists feel when you disappear on their asses, when
- 1:06you just go ahead and pack your stuff up without them knowing
- 1:09and you vanish without a without a trace?
- 1:12Everybody can't, as I say this, everybody can't vanish without a
- 1:16trace, right? Not every, not every single
- 1:17person can vanish without trace because people have kids, people
- 1:20have careers, people have, you know, different things going on
- 1:23with their narcissistic partner or parent or whoever it is.
- 1:26I understand that, but what happens to if you do?
- 1:30But even if you do have kids, what happens if you leave them
- 1:32without a word? Like of course you had to Co
- 1:34parent with them, you had to contact them later on.
- 1:36But what happens when you do leave that narcissistic person
- 1:39without a without a trace without like you know what I
- 1:41mean? You see what I'm saying?
- 1:43It just it just in this space right here, what would happen
- 1:45right there? A lot of them lose their damn
- 1:48minds. A lot of narcissistic people,
- 1:51their first thought if they come home and you're gone is that you
- 1:54moved on with somebody else. That's the first, the first
- 1:57place a narcissist mind goes. Is it that you have somebody
- 2:01else? Ain't they crazy?
- 2:03Like the first thought is like, damn, you must have somebody
- 2:06else. You can't.
- 2:07You wouldn't leave me for any other reason than you having
- 2:11someone else. That's the only explanation why,
- 2:14right? The only way you would leave me
- 2:16is if you had somebody else on the side, if you had somebody
- 2:19else sit up waiting because guess why?
- 2:21Guess why they think that? Because they would, because the
- 2:26narcissist in your life would have somebody that they might
- 2:28already have somebody else waiting or in the wings.
- 2:31They might have somebody waiting to take over.
- 2:34They might have somebody waiting to do this type of stuff right
- 2:36here. You know what I'm saying?
- 2:38They might have somebody right there waiting, They might have
- 2:43somebody they might have been emotionally grooming someone
- 2:47else to take your space and they weren't ready for you to leave,
- 2:50right? Because they're ready.
- 2:51Being ready for you to leave is one thing.
- 2:54Being UN ready is another. So if they're ready for you to
- 2:56leave, if they've been doing the reverse, the reverse discard and
- 2:59you leave and you ghost them, a lot of them will move on very
- 3:02fast. Y'all, even if you do live,
- 3:04let's say, a lot of them will try to move on very, very fast
- 3:07because they don't want to be by themselves.
- 3:09But if they were not ready for you to leave, they, some of them
- 3:12will still move on fast. Try to move on fast.
- 3:14Try to find a temporary supply, a transitional supply, maybe not
- 3:19somebody that's going to stick with them.
- 3:20Maybe somebody just to get their needs met, whatever those needs
- 3:24are, maybe to somebody to pass the time by, right.
- 3:28If that happens in that space right there, then actually some
- 3:33of them will lose their minds. But some of them will absolutely
- 3:35come after you. They will.
- 3:37Yeah. I'm just telling you, if they're
- 3:38not ready for you to leave, they will come after you.
- 3:43They will try to find you. They'll be reaching out to you.
- 3:45They'll be reaching out to your friends and family.
- 3:47They'll be calling everybody. They'll they'll, they'll try to
- 3:51hunt you down. Like look, they'll try to hunt
- 3:54you down like your damn dog the bounty hunter, like, like you,
- 3:57like you, like you. Jump the bounty and they are Dog
- 4:01the bounty hunter. They're trying to find you.
- 4:03They're calling friends and family members, they're showing
- 4:06up at your they're showing up at your job, they're writing
- 4:08letters, they're doing whatever it takes.
- 4:10They're blowing your phone up from different numbers from text
- 4:13now numbers. They're trying to get in contact
- 4:15with you because guess guess what, Y'all, guess what?
- 4:17Guess what excuse they'll give? Look, can you please just let me
- 4:21know you're safe and they are the person that you need safety
- 4:24from. Can you apply?
- 4:25I just want to know you're safe. Can you please just do me?
- 4:28Can you please do me that favor? If you ever love me, if you ever
- 4:32love me, if you ever had an ounce of love in your heart for
- 4:36me, will you please just let me know you're safe?
- 4:39That's the mentality they want to let.
- 4:42They want you to let them know that you are safe, even though
- 4:45they are the person that you need the most safety from.
- 4:48And this happens to everybody. I'm just telling you, this is
- 4:51the mindset. This is the mentality that so
- 4:52many people face right here. They're like, you leave me.
- 4:56I want to make sure that you're safe.
- 4:57Even though I'm the person that you need safety.
- 5:00I'm the person that you need to be the safety from like this is
- 5:05how they go. This is how they go about doing
- 5:06things. I hate that I hate to do like
- 5:09videos like this because some narcissists right?
- 5:12And let me say this right here. If you disappear on them, if you
- 5:17ghost them, if you move out without letting them know, even
- 5:21if you have to contact them later, not every one of them
- 5:25will try to come after you. And it it is, let me say this
- 5:28y'all, it is not a sign of your worth or of your value if this,
- 5:34if this person does or does not come after you because so many
- 5:39people just like, well, Lee, I didn't get Hoover so they didn't
- 5:42try to come after me. They didn't blow up my phone.
- 5:44They didn't call my parents. They didn't call my friends and
- 5:47family. They didn't call their old
- 5:48friends. They didn't, they didn't try to
- 5:513rd party Hoover me. So I must not have mattered to
- 5:54them. No, that's not it.
- 5:55Sometimes they look, sometimes their ego gets in the way.
- 5:59It won't allow them to reach out.
- 6:01The shame of rejection, the rejection, the narcissistic
- 6:04injury that you created by leaving them like that is so big
- 6:10that they can't get over it, right?
- 6:11They can't get over, they can't get past it.
- 6:13There's so much shame and anger and embarrassment from this
- 6:17happening. Even if nobody else knows, even
- 6:19if you did it quietly and then tell anybody, they think you
- 6:22told everybody. They think everybody else is
- 6:24going to know. They think their reputation is
- 6:25on the hook right now. So their shame is so high that
- 6:29some of them will not reach out to you, which can cause some of
- 6:33y'all on the other side of things.
- 6:35This can cause some of y'all to get itchy, to get antsy.
- 6:38You like, oh, I need a hit. You mean you start itching.
- 6:41You want to hit, you want to, you want to hit of that
- 6:43narcissism. You want to hit of that
- 6:45narcissist, right? So that when that happens out,
- 6:48this is the space that so many people fall into.
- 6:51Like it really does. Like you reach out to them
- 6:55because they didn't reach out to you because you ghosted them or
- 6:57you were no contact. You disappeared on them from
- 6:59their life. You blocked them on everything.
- 7:01You cut off access. You might reach out to them
- 7:05because they didn't Hoover you. You might reach out to them.
- 7:10Well, maybe I was wrong because it gets confusing.
- 7:12Maybe I was wrong. Maybe they're not a narcissist.
- 7:15Maybe I just overreacted and left.
- 7:17Maybe I left the love of my life behind and somebody I will reach
- 7:20out and some of you will reverse Hoover yourself back in and then
- 7:24you in a bit back in the toxicity again.
- 7:26And guess what happens if you go back, if you disappear on them
- 7:29and you go back to them, they know that you have one foot out
- 7:33the door. So they're going to some of them
- 7:37will try to love bomb you to keep you there, right?
- 7:40Some of them will try to love bomb you to keep you right there
- 7:42with them, while others will just try, while others will love
- 7:47bomb you while trying to find your replacement.
- 7:51Some of them will absolutely be loved by me you while they're
- 7:55trying to find some your replacement.
- 7:59They will because they they think you left before they know
- 8:02that you can leave again. So they think so they're
- 8:05planning a worst case scenario in their heads because you
- 8:08disappeared before, because you with no contact, because you
- 8:11have the ability to leave before.
- 8:13They're going to try to do something to keep you there and
- 8:15they'll be trying to find some something to replace you with,
- 8:18someone to replace you with. Lee, what do you mean by trying
- 8:20to do something, something to keep those that keep us there?
- 8:23They're going to make you make you going to make some type of
- 8:25financial commitment with them or, or, or there's going to be a
- 8:30baby on the way or you'll get married if you haven't already.
- 8:34You renew your vows. You'll do something that makes
- 8:36you feel recommitted to this person.
- 8:39They will do something to you to try to make you feel like you're
- 8:42stuck with them now. You're stuck with me now.
- 8:45You can't leave me now. You can't, like, even if you
- 8:47want to, you can't leave me because we have a baby on the
- 8:50way. They want to make it like even
- 8:52if you already have kids and you go back, they want to put
- 8:54another baby on there, put another baby out there for you
- 8:57just so it's tougher for you to leave now.
- 8:59Yeah. Instead of just having one or
- 9:00two kids, then you got 3, then you got 4, then you got 5.
- 9:03They'll try to baby trap you. The baby traps do.
- 9:05Do they work? Yeah.
- 9:06Baby traps work all the time. When people y'all keep it hiding
- 9:09ready. That's what we do over.
- 9:11Baby traps do work. That's why people do them.
- 9:13They didn't work. People wouldn't do them right.
- 9:15If baby traps didn't work, people wouldn't do them.
- 9:18So they'll try to trap you if you go back.
- 9:20But I said the, the narcissist mind if you disappear on them,
- 9:23if you ghost them, you know, they are so embarrassed, they
- 9:25are so hurt, they're so shy, they, they don't know what to
- 9:28do. So they, they can get very
- 9:30erratic and very impulsive. Some of them can become
- 9:33dangerous because I told you earlier that if they think you
- 9:36have someone else, they could become dangerous, very
- 9:39dangerous. They can act, they can talk to
- 9:40your friends and family with a calm tone.
- 9:42I just want to know where she's at, you know?
- 9:46I just want to know where he is. Please, can you tell me where he
- 9:48is? Because they want to hurt you.
- 9:51Some of them are trying to find where you are because they want
- 9:54to hurt you. Because you bought them so much
- 9:56shame and pain into their life. And yeah, it's well deserved.
- 10:00Because if they were abusing you and you escaped, you survived
- 10:03it. They were going to try like you
- 10:05escaped. They're they're thinking that
- 10:07you're going to expose them. They're thinking that you moved
- 10:09on. They're all these thoughts are
- 10:10running through the narcissist mind where they cannot put a
- 10:13finger on it. So they can become very erratic.
- 10:15Some of them can have a psychotic break where they try
- 10:17to hunt you down and hurt you. So be careful.
- 10:20Even if you have kids, be careful.
- 10:22Make a plan. If you have, if you try to leave
- 10:23them, if it's dangerous for you to leave, if you feel like you,
- 10:26you can't tell them that you're leaving because of safety issues
- 10:29and things like that. Make a plan, tell somebody close
- 10:32to you, you know, hey, do whatever it takes for somebody,
- 10:35somebody close to you to help you out 'cause this is
- 10:38important, y'all? I'm just telling you, this is an
- 10:39important thing. This is an important thing to
- 10:41do. It really, really is.
- 10:44So you have to empower yourself. You have to keep moving.
- 10:46You have to be as strong as you possibly can in these situations
- 10:49because you have to protect your peace.
- 10:51You have to protect your children.
- 10:52You have to protect yourself, you know, because if you don't,
- 10:55who else, who else will? The narcissist, just because
- 10:59they're trying to make sure that you're safe doesn't mean that
- 11:01they want you to be safe from them.
- 11:04They want to like say the same person is hurting.
- 11:07You think that they're going to play the hero in your life.
- 11:09You will have a protector. If you come back home, you're
- 11:11going to, I'm going to change for you, baby.
- 11:13They want to take. Look, the crazy about it is if
- 11:15you disappear on them, not only would they think you ran off
- 11:18with somebody else, they think you're going to expose them.
- 11:20So a lot of times they'll start making promises to change their
- 11:23behaviors when you're not even there anymore.
- 11:26They'll be texting you. They might actually start moving
- 11:28stuff around the house. If you wanted them to paint
- 11:30their their painting, if you wanted to get a new bed, they
- 11:33get a new bed. You want a new TV, they're
- 11:35buying a new TV. They're doing the things that
- 11:37you wanted them to do, but while you were still there, now that
- 11:39you're going to try to entice you back, trying to like kind of
- 11:42like leaving a trail of leaving a little trail of impact.
- 11:45Bread crumbs, little empathetic bread crumbs, little
- 11:48compassionate bread crumbs, little, little, little bait,
- 11:51some bait for you to bite to, for you to reel you, to reel you
- 11:54back into this relationship and to do more harm to you.
- 11:56So you have to protect yourself. You have to protect your piece.
- 11:59You have to protect everything that's going on about you.
