Transcript
- 0:01So, so, so, so why do narcissists try to come back?
- 0:07What makes narcissists want to try to come back into the
- 0:10relationship? What makes them want to try to
- 0:12come back to you? That's what we're talking about
- 0:15today, y'all. And if you're new here, my name
- 0:17is Lee Hammock. I'm a diagnosed narcissist here
- 0:19to help you understand the mind of a narcissist.
- 0:22And welcome to another episode of The Narcissist Code.
- 0:24Let's get in. Boom, Welcome back folks.
- 0:45Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back.
- 0:47Yes, yes, yes. What's up, what's up, what's up?
- 0:52So narcissistic people, why do they always try to come back?
- 0:57So let's give, let's be real, let's keep it hot and ready,
- 1:01y'all? Not every single narcissistic
- 1:04person out there will try to come back.
- 1:08No2 narcissists are the same. I think we all know that, right?
- 1:15I think we can all let's get it out the way right now.
- 1:16No2 narcissists are the same. Lee, you're the one who
- 1:23confirmed my insecurity that I'm not crazy.
- 1:24Then you go right there. There you go.
- 1:26Power up. I love it.
- 1:27I love it, I love it. But this is the space right
- 1:30here. Little day at work watching your
- 1:33live. What's up?
- 1:34What up? What up?
- 1:35But yeah, y'all narcissistic people, most of them that do
- 1:39come back are trying to come back for one reason.
- 1:43There's more reasons, but this one reason is one of the is one
- 1:46of the reasons why most of them try to come back.
- 1:49That validation, that narcissistic supply that they
- 1:55get from you. They don't want anybody else
- 1:59having that narcissistic supply. They don't want anybody else
- 2:03being able to deal with you. They don't want anybody else to
- 2:07say that, you know, they don't want anybody else to be able to
- 2:11say that you're, you're giving that supply to anybody else.
- 2:15They cannot imagine you given that whatever supply that they
- 2:20get from you, they can't imagine you giving that same supply to
- 2:25someone else. Even you know, this is going to
- 2:29sound crazy. This is going to sound
- 2:31ridiculous. I know it is, right?
- 2:32What's going on? I know it's going to sound
- 2:34ridiculous. Even if they have someone else,
- 2:42even even if the narcissistic person in your life has moved on
- 2:48and has a new supply, it doesn't mean that they're just going to
- 2:53release you and let you go. That's not how it works, you
- 2:57know That's not how it works. Even if they have someone else,
- 3:00they can still try to come back into your life.
- 3:04For whatever reason. This is how the mind of a lot of
- 3:06narcissistic people work right here.
- 3:09No matter if I have someone new, I still might try to come back
- 3:14to you. And that could be it right
- 3:18there. I know, I know that sounds
- 3:21crazy, but that's how the mind of a lot of narcissistic people
- 3:24work, right? I'm literally rolling, rolling
- 3:26my eyes. It's funny, but this is how the
- 3:29mind of a narcissist works. Just because I have someone else
- 3:34doesn't mean I want you to move on.
- 3:35Because even though I have someone else, I'm happy.
- 3:39I'm happy, right? It doesn't mean that I want you
- 3:43to move on. It doesn't mean that I want you
- 3:46to be happy. It doesn't mean that I'm ready
- 3:48to release you. This is why, yo, This is why
- 3:52what happens a lot of times right here, y'all is there like
- 3:55narcissistic people. They'll tell you in order to try
- 3:58to keep you on the hook. One thing that they would tell
- 4:01you is, hey, I know I'm with somebody else, but maybe I made
- 4:05a mistake. I don't know what I want
- 4:07anymore. I don't know if I want you or
- 4:11anybody else. I don't know what I want.
- 4:13And does that work? Yes, it works on a lot of
- 4:16people. Let's be real.
- 4:17That does work on a lot of people.
- 4:19It really does. So this is what happens right
- 4:22here. They think that they can come
- 4:24back into your life and wreak havoc.
- 4:27They think that they can come back into your life and just
- 4:29cause you to push pause on your life.
- 4:31And yeah, does this work? Yes, it absolutely does work,
- 4:35right? It absolutely does work and it
- 4:40happens to so many people. You know what I mean?
- 4:42And I tell this to people all the time.
- 4:44It happens to so many people that they will keep you on the
- 4:48hook for years, for years. They will waste years of your
- 4:57life and they do not care. They will blame you for wasting
- 5:02your life. They will waste years of your
- 5:04life on them, on this back and forth mess.
- 5:08They absolutely will. But that's something that you
- 5:13have to understand. That happens.
- 5:16They will absolutely waste your time.
- 5:19I did a video yesterday on YouTube about that.
- 5:20They don't care about wasting your time.
- 5:23They just do not. Hey, I can't wait for the
- 5:26workshop in Saint Louis. Yeah, the work.
- 5:27Yeah. Yeah.
- 5:28So we have a workshop next week in Saint Louis on April the 5th,
- 5:32in St. Louis, MO on April the 5th.
- 5:35Live in person workshop. The live in person workshop,
- 5:39April the 5th, St. Louis, MO can be found at
- 5:41mentalillness.net/events. I'm going to drop it in the
- 5:45comment section right now. Mental illness.net/events for
- 5:50the workshop in case you want to check it out.
- 5:52In St. Louis, MO on April the 5th and
- 5:56whatnot. But this is what they do, y'all?
- 6:00This is what they do. This is absolutely what they do.
- 6:04They will try to come back to ruin your life and does it work?
- 6:07I told y'all yes, it does work right?
- 6:10It absolutely does work. Like this person right here.
- 6:13She said they called me they said they missed me love me.
- 6:16My synth was fading from their sheets.
- 6:18Doesn't that sound weird? Doesn't sound so not weird.
- 6:21Doesn't it sound so sweet? Your scent is fading from my
- 6:24sheets. It's it's fading.
- 6:26See. Then look what happens y'all, I
- 6:29fell for it. Two days were great, but they
- 6:30were back on day three with that bull.
- 6:32So they think it's OK. I feel like in these situations
- 6:36right here, if you are, and this is the black and white thinking,
- 6:39if you allow me back into your life, if you allow me back into
- 6:44your life, I think it's OK how I treat you.
- 6:48And that's just me being real. If you allow me back into your
- 6:55life, I think it's OK with how I treat you.
- 6:58This is the mentality. This is the mindset of
- 7:01narcissistic people. They really can be.
- 7:04So they want to come back to you to try to get that narcissistic
- 7:08supply yes. Another reason that they will
- 7:11try to come back to you is right, like right here.
- 7:14This is you know, this is not you know, this is not maybe not
- 7:17a super common one, but like look, do they still try to come
- 7:21back even if you had charges against them?
- 7:23Yes, yes, some of them will ever will are absolutely try to come
- 7:29back into your life. Even if you press charges on
- 7:32them or have them arrested, you know, even you press charges on
- 7:35them and have them arrested, They absolutely will try to come
- 7:39back into your life to ruin your life.
- 7:42You know, and sometimes they'll try to come back into your life
- 7:44to be nice to you to try to get you to drop those charges,
- 7:47right. They want you to drop those
- 7:48charges that you have out on them.
- 7:50They don't want those charges to to remain, so they'll come back
- 7:52into your life to try to get you to drop said charges, right?
- 7:56They want you to drop those charges.
- 7:57So that's what they'll do as well, right?
- 7:59Yes. Another reason that some
- 8:01narcissist will try to come back is shout out to you boredom.
- 8:10They get bored, they get bored with the new supply.
- 8:13They get bored of living life without you and they'll try to
- 8:16come back into your life. They'll just be bored.
- 8:18Not because they'll tell you look, they'll tell you that they
- 8:21care about you. They will tell you that they
- 8:23they want to they miss you and they love you.
- 8:25They'll do that, but they're just bored.
- 8:29They get bored as hell and just had to come back.
- 8:31I'm bored with my decision making abilities and they'll
- 8:34just how to come back into your life.
- 8:36They absolutely will. You know what I mean?
- 8:39You dropping some bones, you dropping some good ones right
- 8:41here. They won't control and supply.
- 8:43It's an ego boost yes or the new supply.
- 8:47Let them go yes, absolutely. You own it.
- 8:50They absolutely, this is what happens.
- 8:54They think that they're, they, they, they think that you're
- 8:57open to them coming back and they, they won't control over
- 9:00you, right? This is what happens.
- 9:04So if you have, if you have released a narcissist into the
- 9:07wild, right, if you have released a narcissist back into
- 9:11the wild, if you've broken up with them, divorced them or
- 9:14whatever, don't let them come back into your life or back into
- 9:17your space because they will absolutely try to wreak havoc in
- 9:20your life and in your space. This is just a fact, right?
- 9:27This is just a fact. This is what ends up happening
- 9:31right here. You know this this is their
- 9:34space right here. So how would you know if you
- 9:37how, how will you know after you win no contact if they hit their
- 9:40rock bottom? You, you, you won't, right?
- 9:43You won't. You're supposed to be no
- 9:44contact. You're not if you're no contact,
- 9:46if you're really no contact, you're not worried.
- 9:48You, you can't worry about them reaching out or worried about
- 9:50their rock bottom. You can.
- 9:52That's not something like no contact.
- 9:53That's for you not worried about them.
- 9:54You're not supposed to be worried about them doing no
- 9:56contact because if you reach out to them or check in on them,
- 9:59what ends up happening is sometimes one of the main
- 10:03reasons, Another reason that they will try to come back into
- 10:05your life. Another one of the main reasons
- 10:07that they will try to come back into your life is because you
- 10:09reach out to them. You open the door and welcome
- 10:12them back into your life, right? You will open the door and
- 10:16welcome them back with open arms because you think that they they
- 10:19are doing well or they're hurting.
- 10:21This is the one that gets me all the time.
- 10:22This is the one that gets a lot of people is that you'll reach
- 10:25out to them or you'll, you'll take a peek at their social
- 10:27media platforms or whatever and you'll see that profile picture
- 10:30even like, Oh no, they look sad in their profile picture.
- 10:32They must need my help. They must need me.
- 10:35They must need help. And then you reach out to them
- 10:37and then you suck yourself back into the relationship.
- 10:39You, you'll welcome them back into the relationship and
- 10:42they'll ruin your life because they look sad in their profile
- 10:46picture because you told yourself a story about their
- 10:48sadness and their grief and you're like, they look sad in
- 10:51their profile. But I had to reach out to check
- 10:53in, check in on them. No, you didn't have to.
- 10:54You can't heal them. You can't fix them.
- 10:57You know what I mean? My ex-husband tried to convince
- 10:59me not to not follow through on divorce.
- 11:02Then try to do every family holiday together after divorce.
- 11:05Not for our child but they have access to me.
- 11:07Yep Yep, Yep, Yep. That's another one of the
- 11:10reasons, right? I'm glad you mentioned that is
- 11:11another one of the reasons right there.
- 11:13Because they don't want anybody else around their damn kids.
- 11:17Even if they have their own people around your kids, they
- 11:20don't want anybody else around their kids.
- 11:27I know it can seem ass backwards, but that really is
- 11:30how it goes. They don't want anybody else
- 11:32around their kids. So they just act a monkey and
- 11:34try to keep everybody away. You know what I'm saying?
- 11:36This is what they do. This is how they respond and
- 11:38whatnot. They will try to come back.
- 11:40They try to come back For these reasons.
- 11:42Right here. Right.
- 11:44You warned me he would implode and he did.
- 11:46Yeah. Yeah, I I tried to warn.
- 11:48Oh, so we did. We did a one-on-one.
- 11:49We we've talked before. Morgan said I had a meeting with
- 11:52you. Totally recommend anybody,
- 11:54anybody attending you. So you came, Did you come?
- 11:56I can't see your face in this picture right here.
- 11:58Did you do a one-on-one or did you come to one of the events?
- 12:03So I still do my one on ones over zoom.
- 12:04Yeah. If y'all don't know, I still
- 12:05have my one on ones available over zoom.
- 12:08Everything about me, y'all events, courses, groups.
- 12:12I have a support group everything is at
- 12:14mentalillness.net. Everything about me you can find
- 12:17at mentalillness.net, everything about me, e-mail everything,
- 12:23everything. Oh, so me and her had a
- 12:24one-on-one. Yeah, she we had a one-on-one.
- 12:26She said she highly recommends it.
- 12:27Thank you so much. Thank you so much.
- 12:31But this is what happens to y'all.
- 12:33So a lot of times they will try to come back and sometimes
- 12:35y'all. I posted a video about this on
- 12:37my on my TikTok the other day. Sometimes they try to come back
- 12:41just because they can, right? Not because they love you or
- 12:44care about you or miss you. They try to come back just
- 12:47because they can. You know what I mean?
- 12:49This is what ends up happening. They try to come back just
- 12:51because they can and they want to wreak havoc in your life and
- 12:55try to ruin your life. You know, Megan says ownership
- 12:59of you is also ownership with the children.
- 13:01But what does ownership mean to them?
- 13:04Is that is, is it the high ownership just means the
- 13:09control. They it's, it's, it's about so
- 13:12for me, it's about mitigating the shame.
- 13:14I don't want to feel ashamed. If if somebody else has you,
- 13:17then I feel ashamed that somebody else has you.
- 13:20You know what I'm saying? In that space right there.
- 13:25No, this is what happens. Somebody said they come back to
- 13:27finish you all. Somebody they, they sometimes
- 13:29they come back to finish you off.
- 13:30Yes, I will say that is a big truth right there because
- 13:36sometimes they do come back to seek vengeance.
- 13:39Sometimes they come back into your life, into your space to
- 13:42try and seek some type of vengeance on you for hurting
- 13:45them, some type of vengeance on you for what you have put them
- 13:47what you what you put them through.
- 13:50They try to come back in this space right here and do this
- 13:52type of stuff. This is what they try to do.
- 13:55You do do do do you do one on ones with the actual narcissist
- 13:59or just their victims? I talk to anybody.
- 14:00I've talked to narcissist, I've talked to survivors, thrivers,
- 14:04I've talked to therapists. I thought I talked to anybody
- 14:05one-on-one that's willing to talk.
- 14:06You know what I'm saying? That's what I do.
- 14:09That's what I wanted ones do. I talked to anybody and
- 14:11everybody. I was talking to other diagnosed
- 14:13narcissists. I told the people, I told people
- 14:15how to get into the therapy. I talked to people about healing
- 14:18and growth. That's what I do right there,
- 14:19y'all. This is what I do.
- 14:22This is what I do. I've been doing it for almost
- 14:25four years now. No matter what they always
- 14:28write. That's why.
- 14:29That's how it goes right there, y'all.
- 14:31You know vengeance is my fear. It's what keeps me avoiding him.
- 14:34Be safe. You have to be safe right there
- 14:35because they will come back just to try to seek some type of
- 14:38vengeance. Yeah, I got a little time for.
- 14:41I got a couple minutes for a few questions, y'all and whatnot if
- 14:44y'all want to ask a few questions.

- 16:36just do a drop off. Y'all both drop them off
- 16:37somewhere else. But if you can't avoid seeing
- 16:40them or talking to him or whatever the case may be, just
- 16:43prepare for them to either try to hold hold you up and talk to
- 16:46you or for them to try to dismiss you and not talk to you
- 16:49at all because that can hurt just as bad right there.
