Of of these first conversations they opened up to me about childhood trauma. I also went through trauma so we shared a normalized experience. They were like an open book then one day, they became secretive and did nothing but lie repeatedly.

They're always suffer-mores and belittle all your pain.

Anything you experience Anything you say can and will be used against you

My ex narc trauma bonded me by sexually assaulting me fairly early on in the relationship. He explained it as a simple miscommunication, a misjudgement in the bedroom. But it was deliberate. It trauma bonded me to him for the next 4+ years. Bad stuff this trauma bonding and it often bubbles just below the surface of your conscious awareness, keeping you trapped in a relationship which is toxic, one you should run from. ๐Ÿ˜ฅ๐Ÿ˜ก

One suspected covert narcissist INSTANTLY told me about how poor they were growing up and the death of his sibling within 10 minutes of meeting him.

Its the ultimate "Get Out Of Jail Free" card, always something to fall back on when deflecting and blame shifting arent working.

Trauma bonding with my husband was one thing. 
Bonding with the first wife who has gone through the same trauma as me for 10 years with our husband (I have only be married for a year), and even bonding with the kids, made it so much harder to leave. 

I felt that at least I wasn't alone in my experience. As a veteran it is like meeting those who shared in the same crappt experience with the same exact crappy people- you become bonded through your mutual hell. 

So it wasn't hard leaving him. It was hard to leave my "war buddy" and her kids behind. Especially since I am not pregnant myself with my first child. No idea how my child will have a bond with his/her siblings.

@moniquetammenga3468

I am familiar with narcism. I was born in a narcissistic family. My father and mother were born in Surinam. My father was an old man. He died in september 2011. He was 82 years old when he died. In 2019 I went on a date with a 45 year old man. He had taken me out to dinner. After dinner he went with me to a quiet area where we could sit on the water's edge. In the conversation he started he recounted many memories from his past. When it started to become late he decided to leave with me at the edge of the water. We got into his car and he started a conversation about his parents. He told me that after his father died that his mother got cancer and that he had taken care of her for years. This information was a red flag for me. A few days after our date he called me to tell  me he liked me and wanted a relationship with me because we had so much in common. I had rejected him. He got mad. He told me that he felt insulted.
