Do narcissists see strength in those who get away?

Yes, they do! And I’m going to tell you when the narcissist sees strength in you:

They’re going to see the strength in you when you pull back. That’s when the narcissist is going to see your strength.

They’re also going to see the strength in you when you go no contact because you’re showing the narcissist that you don’t need them anymore. You’re showing the narcissist that you respect yourself, that you are no longer going to tolerate their games. And no contact shows strength. You’re no longer entertaining that narcissist. You’re no longer making them important. You don’t need them anymore because you’re living no contact. You’re not chasing them.

When you’re no longer explaining yourself. That’s also when the necissist is going to see strength in their victims.

So many times in the beginning when you have disagreements with the narcissist, you’re sitting there time and time again trying to explain yourself, trying to make that narcissist see it from your point of view. And I’ve been there. Plenty of times, I sat there and talked myself blue in the face trying to get the narcissist to see it from my point of view. And guess what? They’ll never see it from your point of view if it means they have to take accountability or face any kind of shame. So it’s not that they can’t see it from your point of view. It’s that they don’t want to see it from your point of view.

But when you take a stand and no longer explain yourself or you’re no longer defending yourself to that narcissist, that’s when the narcissist sees your strength because you no longer need their validation. You no longer need them to say, “Oh, I see what you’re saying.” Or, “I agree with you.” Or, “You’re right.”

You no longer need them to tell you anything because you have your power. And narcissists realize that when you stop defending or explaining yourself.
