Understanding Narcissistic Relationships
Narcissistic relationships often initiate with charm and intense emotional connections, known as love bombing, which can obscure the signs of manipulation. These relationships can lead individuals to question their sense of reality, as they may feel they are 'walking on eggshells' or doubting their own feelings and perceptions. This confusion can be exacerbated by the gradual erosion of self-confidence and a predilection for gaslighting, where the narcissist distorts facts and emotions to maintain control. Recognizing these patterns is crucial for individuals trying to differentiate between supportive and toxic dynamics in their relationships.
