  Today we're going to be talking about what do narcissists think
• 0:06
  when you ignore them? When you ignore a narcissistic
• 0:10
  person? I know it made you think, didn't
• 0:13
  it? If you're new here, my name is
• 0:14
  Lee Hammock. I'm a clinically diagnosed
• 0:15
  narcissist. And welcome to another episode
• 0:17
  of the narcissist. Coke.
• 0:35
  Boom. Welcome back.
• 0:36
  Welcome back. Welcome back, folks.
• 0:38
  Yes, yes, yes. The Mind of a narcissist when
• 0:43
  you ignore them. Before we hop into today's
• 0:46
  episode, y'all join my mailing list.
• 0:48
  My very first course, understanding the seven stages
• 0:51
  of a narcissistic relationship is coming out this week.
• 0:54
  Newsletter e-mail list link is in the description of every
• 0:57
  video I post. But yes, y'all, yes yes yes.
• 1:02
  Oh, ignoring a narcissist. Let's just start off by saying
• 1:09
  this. They don't like it.
• 1:11
  Most narcissistic people do not like being annoyed.
• 1:16
  Yeah, they they hate it. It can drive them crazy.
• 1:18
  Because if you're ignoring me, that means that in my the way my
• 1:23
  mind works is if you're ignoring me, that means you're
• 1:26
  entertaining someone else. They can all they they can only
• 1:30
  be. They can be damn damn near.
• 1:31
  The only reason why you would ignore me is if you have someone
• 1:35
  else. That's what.
• 1:37
  That's where a narcissist mind goes all the time.
• 1:39
  Yeah, it damn near automatically goes to you having someone else
• 1:43
  because that empowers them right there.
• 1:45
  That makes them feel a certain type of way right there.
• 1:47
  Because like it, it just allows them to escape any type of
• 1:51
  accountability. It's just like, well, you must
• 1:53
  have someone else and no one, no reason because because you can
• 1:56
  move. On so quickly.
• 1:58
  That's. Why I had some, that's why I
• 2:00
  have someone else, that's why. I'm.
• 2:02
  I started a new relationship. That's why I'm doing this.
• 2:04
  That's why I'm doing that. That's where their mind goes
• 2:07
  right there. Y'all that's literally the the
• 2:10
  part of the that's that's where their mind goes in this space.
• 2:13
  They automatically go to the fact that you they automatically
• 2:15
  think you have someone else you know.
• 2:18
  And when you ignore them, they try to look.
• 2:20
  A lot of times when you ignore narcissists, they try to force
• 2:22
  their way back into your life. You know, they'll say they'll
• 2:26
  send you a picture of a hospital bracelet or something like that,
• 2:29
  just like you know. Or they'll post it online trying
• 2:34
  to get somebody to reach out to you.
• 2:36
  Can't believe I'm here right now.
• 2:38
  Can't believe they're not feeling too good.
• 2:41
  Wish I had somebody by my side. Or they'll just take a picture
• 2:44
  of a hospital bracelet, you know?
• 2:46
  Or picture like they have some tubes in their nose and it's
• 2:49
  just like a picture. Like, they like they have some
• 2:51
  tubes in their nose and it's really just some Airpods, you
• 2:54
  know, or the Airpods, the the the headphones with the wire in
• 2:58
  them. It makes it look like it, you
• 2:59
  know what I mean? They sit over there in the
• 3:02
  hospital with with the cable. They they know like this, try to
• 3:06
  make it seem like they need some help because they want you to
• 3:09
  stop ignoring them. They want you to reach out.
• 3:11
  They want to see if you still care.
• 3:13
  They want to see if you'll still be there.
• 3:14
  They want to see if they still have access to you.
• 3:16
  You know they're planting seeds. Don't take the bait.
• 3:20
  Don't take the bait. Because when you take the bait
• 3:24
  of narcissists and talk to people, this is what happens.
• 3:26
  This is the end result of taking the damn bait.
• 3:30
  Like seriously. That's why I just tell.
• 3:31
  I try to tell as many people as I possibly can to not take the
• 3:34
  bait. Because once you do, that's when
• 3:37
  they get you. Y'all, let's just be realistic.
• 3:38
  Let's just keep it hot and ready.
• 3:41
  When you take the bait they think that you are.
• 3:44
  They think you know they still will always have access to you.
• 3:47
  They hate being ignored. Y'all.
• 3:48
  They hate it, hate it, hate it, hate it.
• 3:51
  You know, I know. Blocking, blocking and ignoring.
• 3:54
  Like narcissists. Most narcissists hate being
• 3:56
  blocked more than being ignored. But ignored, then ignored sets
• 3:59
  them off. You know, being ignored.
• 4:01
  Just like, OK, I can still see what you have going on, but
• 4:04
  you're not. You know you're not
• 4:05
  acknowledging my existence. They feel entitled to your
• 4:09
  acknowledgement of their existence.
• 4:11
  Like you have to acknowledge my existence.
• 4:13
  Because I because I'm me. I don't care how I treated you.
• 4:17
  I still you shouldn't ignore me. And then look, this is what some
• 4:19
  narcissists will say during this period right here.
• 4:21
  Y'all they'll just say, hey, look, I know I cheated on you.
• 4:24
  I know I put my hands on you. I know I stole from you.
• 4:26
  I know I manipulated. I know I lied to you.
• 4:28
  I know I gaslighted you. But I never ignored you.
• 4:32
  You're what you're doing right now is much more worse than what
• 4:34
  I did to you. Much, much worse than what I did
• 4:36
  to you. I would never ignore you.
• 4:39
  And look at you ignoring me. Wow.
• 4:41
  Wow, wow. You see, they'll try to make it.
• 4:44
  They'll try to to make it seem like you are doing them worse
• 4:46
  than they did you by you just ignoring them.
• 4:50
  How ignorant does that sound? Y'all.
• 4:52
  You know how ignorant does it sound like?
• 4:54
  They like, yeah, I hate it. I used to hate when my y'all
• 4:57
  know I had a narcissistic ex. I hate when she ignored me.
• 5:00
  We used to work together. Yeah, we worked together.
• 5:04
  I hate talking about this. I hate talking about this woman,
• 5:06
  but I need to sometimes, you know, because it helps me heal.
• 5:08
  But it really just, you know, we work with somebody y'all dating
• 5:14
  or whatever, and then y'all just she ignoring you, you know, only
• 5:18
  talks to you when they needs help with a customer or
• 5:20
  something. Yeah, it just sucks being
• 5:22
  ignored. I know it it gets on your
• 5:24
  nerves, you know? And it did turn out that she did
• 5:27
  have someone else. But yeah, that's part of it.
• 5:31
  Y'all I know it's. I know I sound bitter like you
• 5:33
  sound bitter like you sound like you're hurt.
• 5:35
  I. Am it did hurt.
• 5:37
  Damn. I'm allowed to hurt you.
• 5:39
  Allowed to hurt. I'm allowed to hurt too.
• 5:41
  Damn it. But yeah, that's how it goes.
• 5:46
  That's why I. I.
• 5:47
  Do seriously want child to win. Like I'm rooting for every
• 5:51
  single one they got out there. So if you were ignoring a
• 5:54
  narcissist, you might want to transition to blocking them.
• 5:56
  I know everybody can't ignore them, but everybody can't block
• 6:00
  them because you might have kids together.
• 6:01
  It might be court ordered or whatever, but they, like I said,
• 6:05
  when you ignore them, they are going to try to get a reaction
• 6:08
  from you. You know, you want to transition
• 6:10
  to their blocking because blocking is the final step in
• 6:12
  healing most times. But you they hate being ignored
• 6:16
  too. Like I said, I hate being
• 6:17
  ignored. Like some of them will pop up at
• 6:19
  your job. They will try to force
• 6:20
  engagement. They will try to force you not
• 6:22
  to ignore them. They'll pop up at your job
• 6:24
  because they feel like they're entitled to.
• 6:26
  They'll stalk you, they'll follow you in your car.
• 6:28
  They might not like, they might not even say anything to you.
• 6:30
  They might just be following behind you.
• 6:32
  You know, they might, you might be going, going to work in the
• 6:34
  morning and you see them outside and they'll just sitting out
• 6:37
  there, sitting outside or whatever, looking at you, You
• 6:40
  know, they said I'll try. They're sitting outside your
• 6:43
  house just looking at you. Like what up, You know, just
• 6:47
  messing with you, trying to get into your head, trying to get
• 6:49
  into your mind, your mind brain trying to get into your head.
• 6:54
  That's what they do. That's part of it.
• 6:57
  Y'all like, I so want everybody to win.
• 7:00
  I so want everybody to have this experience where you're growing
• 7:03
  and healing and thriving and whatnot.
• 7:05
  But like, they will try to pop up on you.
• 7:07
  They'll try to get scary. You might have to file
• 7:09
  harassment charges or, you know, go down to the Police
• 7:12
  Department. If you don't want to file
• 7:13
  charges, just go open up a file some.
• 7:15
  Some police departments I heard will let you come open up a
• 7:17
  file. Just say, hey, look, I'm being,
• 7:19
  I feel like I'm being stoked. I don't want to press charges
• 7:20
  right now because it might set them off.
• 7:22
  I just need to let y'all know what's going on.
• 7:24
  Some, I think some departments will let you do that because
• 7:26
  they hate being ignored. Y'all.
• 7:27
  Some of them will react very, very negatively when they be
• 7:30
  ignored. You know, like I said, they'll
• 7:32
  start reaching out to your family members and friends.
• 7:34
  I just want to make sure that you're OK.
• 7:36
  I want to make sure that the dog, I want to make sure that
• 7:39
  the dog that I never. Cared about when we were
• 7:41
  together. I want to make sure Fido is OK.
• 7:45
  The cat that I kicked a couple of times that hates me.
• 7:48
  They will hiss at me when I walk by.
• 7:49
  I just want to make sure that cat didn't get out.
• 7:52
  I haven't heard from you. Just let me know that you're
• 7:54
  safe. Please, please let me know
• 7:55
  you're safe. They are.
• 7:57
  You are safe. Y'all you know, Sometimes, like
• 8:00
  I said, sometimes you might have to send if you are planning on
• 8:02
  trying to get a restraining order.
• 8:03
  Sometimes you might have to send that final message saying hey
• 8:06
  please leave me alone. You know you had to put out
• 8:08
  there into the universe that you've asked this person to
• 8:10
  leave you alone, right? Because sometimes it doesn't
• 8:13
  work. It doesn't happen that way.
• 8:14
  Sometimes, like if you don't have the evidence the people
• 8:16
  would like I just get dot your IS and cross your TS.
• 8:20
  But also, y'all. Remember earlier I said some
• 8:23
  narcissists, but most narcissists hate being ignored.
• 8:26
  There are some narcissistic people that will.
• 8:29
  This is a rarity right here. But there are some narcissists
• 8:32
  that take being ignored as kind of a weird badge of honor.
• 8:36
  You know what I mean? They take being ignored like
• 8:38
  they got the and this is not good.
• 8:39
  Let me preface this by saying this.
• 8:43
  This is not me telling you to not ignore them.
• 8:46
  Because at the end of the day, who cares what they think as
• 8:49
  long as they're not trying to hurt you or harm you or
• 8:51
  something like that, right? But some of them, some
• 8:53
  narcissistic people, Y'all when you are ignoring them, they take
• 8:57
  that as a as a as a good thing for them.
• 9:00
  It actually builds their ego up. I know it sounds strange, but it
• 9:03
  actually come it actually builds their ego.
• 9:07
  Their ego actually amplifies. Like, look, I made you ignore
• 9:10
  me. I hurt you so badly because some
• 9:13
  narcissistic people like hurting you.
• 9:14
  Let's be real. I hurt you so bad that you're
• 9:16
  ignoring me now. You can't take anymore.
• 9:18
  I punish you. Enough.
• 9:20
  You can't take it anymore. So they ignore.
• 9:23
  They're ignoring me. They blocked me.
• 9:27
  Yes. I triggered you so badly.
• 9:30
  I hurt you so badly that you blocked me.
• 9:32
  Yeah, I feel great. I feel amazing that I got
• 9:35
  blocked. That's the mindset of some
• 9:37
  weirdo, narcissistic people. But that's them trying to
• 9:40
  justify it, you know? That's them trying to justify a
• 9:42
  lot of things, a lot of their actions and trying to feel good
• 9:45
  about something, having something to feel good about.
• 9:48
  You know, some of them take pride in being ignored and being
• 9:50
  blocked because they know they've that they know they've
• 9:52
  harmed you or they know they've damaged you.
• 9:54
  And again, this is not me saying to unblock them or not to engage
• 9:58
  with them. Hell no, That's not what I'm
• 10:00
  saying. Y'all don't twist my words.
• 10:02
  That's not what I'm saying. I'm not saying that at all.
• 10:06
  Right. So what I am saying is that this
• 10:11
  is that the way the mind of a narcissistic person works,
• 10:13
  right? You know it.
• 10:16
  It's the way the mind of a narcissist or a toxic person
• 10:19
  works. It's like how things go within a
• 10:21
  dynamic within that space right there.
• 10:23
  Like, they hate being ignored. Most of them hate being ignored,
• 10:26
  you know? But some of them will take pride
• 10:28
  in the pain that they put you through, the suffering that they
• 10:29
  put you through. And some of them will absolutely
• 10:31
  let you know that they they, they take pride in that.
• 10:34
  Yeah, because the mind of a narcissistic person works weird
• 10:37
  like being being ignored. It's like you're like when you
• 10:40
  ignore them and they don't like it.
• 10:42
  The ones that don't like being ignored, it's like you're
• 10:44
  cutting off a form of supply for them.
• 10:46
  So they hate that. They hate when you cut off that
• 10:49
  supply for them. They hate when you do that type
• 10:52
  of stuff right there. You know, they.
• 10:54
  Yeah, I'm just telling you, they absolutely hate when you cut off
• 10:57
  that supply. When you ignore them, they that
• 11:00
  you're giving your supply to someone else.
• 11:03
  You know, they think that you're giving the validation that they
• 11:06
  get from you. They think you're getting it.
• 11:07
  They think you're giving it to someone else and they hate it
• 11:10
  with a raw, seething passion. They absolutely do.
• 11:15
  This is one of those things that they really load, load, you know
• 11:19
  what I'm saying? LOATHE low da, low da.
• 11:24
  You know what I mean? But yeah, that's why I'm just
• 11:26
  telling people, I tell people this all the time.
• 11:28
  I try to help people, helping help with business people as
• 11:30
  possible, just because who cared?
• 11:31
  Like at the end of the day, how they feel when they're being
• 11:35
  ignored should not have an effect on your life.
• 11:37
  Don't let them feel. Make you feel bad for being
• 11:40
  ignored. I'll see my cat back there.
• 11:42
  Sometimes you hate having a black cat.
• 11:43
  It's a black curtain, a black couch.
• 11:45
  He just be merging into stuff. Oh my goodness.
• 11:50
  But yeah, they hate it. It's like it doesn't affect your
• 11:53
  life. Don't let your empathy be
• 11:55
  weaponized against you because they will take your the way that
• 11:58
  you feel about them. They will use it against you in
• 12:00
  the end. They would.
• 12:01
  Most narcissistic people want to do anything that benefits them
• 12:04
  in some way, shape or form, you know, and they don't want you
• 12:06
  giving your supply to someone else even.
• 12:08
  And it's going to sound crazy, I know, I said.
• 12:10
  When I every time I say this, I have the preface it right.
• 12:13
  It's going to sound crazy. It's absolutely going to sound
• 12:16
  ignorant, but even if they have someone else, even if they have
• 12:20
  moved on or in a relationship with someone else, even if they
• 12:23
  have a new BFF or a new employee, whatever it is,
• 12:26
  whatever the role they play in your life, even if they have
• 12:29
  that, they still might hate being ignored by you.
• 12:31
  They still might feel entitled to your space.
• 12:33
  Oh wow, you with someone else. I see how it is right now.
• 12:36
  Thought we could be friends. What you with?
• 12:38
