Until I maxed out on my benefit of doubt for this person and came to see it for what it is.
So when someone else says,
"Maybe you misunderstood"
I feel like I'm being taken back to point zero, where I started.
So I wish people would read this article first.

Isn't it strange how quickly people are to invalidate the victim of Narcissistic abuse, as though we're the crazy ones, when that's not the case at all. It infuriates me, b/c these people are either complete idiots, or they don't respect me to begin with, to say something so dismissive.
What really irks me, is people who tell me that b/c I'm not a licensed mental health professional, that I'm not qualified to judge if a man or woman is a Narcissist. So, to those people I say, "what makes you think you're qualified to invalidate my life experience so quickly?" They're not, of course. But they believe the internet gives them license to do so.
