| 4 | Men will try to make you look crazy for lashing out at them after they ignore your boundaries over and over.I resonate with this post so much that I want to cry. Nobody, not even my "best girl friends", believed me when I say I feel trapped and scared and tired of this relationship. They started defending him whenever I come crying saying I'm going to break up for real with him; and when shit explodes, he spreads on social media that I'm a crazy manipulative narc abuser after I called the cops on him, of course even my best friends sided with him and stopped talking to me. Shit hurts. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 08/10/21 04:56 AM |

No, this is about letting yourself feel all of the icky emotions on their full performance; allowing the sadness, the pain, the shame, the anger, the resentment, the guilt, the nostalgia, the regret engulf you wholly.

I'm not sure if I got this entirely right, but I can imagine it's the same for us neurodiverse people; always feeling cast out from the rest of the neurotypical world that we seek and find safety in others who also exhibit an aura of "different".

| 136 | I just remembered something my Nex said at the beginningI broke up with him recently due to his constant narc abuse and now he's spreading on every social media platform of his that he's been "so tired of the abuse he's breaking free". It's the harassment from his friends and the anger I feel because he's crying damaged victim and nobody believes me that I'm stuck with 😣 | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/09/21 08:01 PM |
| 4 | I finally broke up with my narcissistic abusive ex and everyone around him thinks I'mThe ones you lost were never yours to hold on anyways. You deserve so much better than abuser defenders. I'm so glad you had that evidence. If his ex fiancé ever plans to file a charge against him, you have aid. Poor the new supply tho - I guess everyone has to learn their lesson.

| 3 | I finally broke up with my narcissistic abusive ex and everyone around him thinks I'mIt's so freeing being validated and seen 💔 Thanks for your support, really. I remember there was a book called "The Body Keeps The Score", about how trauma responses manifest into psychosomatic symptoms. Gotta find a PDF to read it. | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/09/21 08:22 AM |

That's just twisted 🤢 And he even managed to succeed, the things these creatures are capable of doing. The worst thing about it is that they have all the chatlogs, the physical proof on paper, about all the times you lash out on their bullshit over text. Mine is using that as his leverage now. Truly disgusting. You thought you knew them, loved them, held them close, and never realised how they've been s… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/09/21 06:42 AM |
| 5 | I finally broke up with my narcissistic abusive ex and everyone around him thinks I'mYep, she's next on my deep dive list! 🤓 I'm still guilty of typing his Reddit usernames in anonymous browsing to see if he's posted anything new. The initial post on his main account slandering me for being discriminating and cruel (with fabricated, cut and pasted dialogues out of context) - he deleted. What does this mean? We don't know, and we don't care 🧼✨ | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/09/21 06:20 AM |
| 17 | FDS approved fiction?I approve of FDS and my favourite YA book is 💕 Six of Crows 💕, but I only like it for the heist, because tbh the romance plot lines there are lowkey unhealthy with undeserving scrotes (one was emotionally unavailable and one literally was a racist and tried to murder the female character) so no, I guess. I'm currently about to read the Sabriel line (a fantasy trilogy about a young witch) and To Sleep In A Sea Of Stars (space odyssey kinda thing with a female protagonist).

| 176 | One of many reasons we are against BDSM.What the fuck. These men are monsters. It's always them using the "consensual violence" as a free ticket out of any battery, assault, MURDER sentence. A person, a mother, a daughter and a sister, DIED because of you. These animals should be locked up forever. Edit: Did I read it right that this disgusting vile piece of shit strangled his "lover" in the apartment he shares with his WIFE? | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/09/21 06:07 AM |
| 7 | I finally broke up with my narcissistic abusive ex and everyone around him thinks I'mYou cannot believe the revelation this has brought to me. All of the time I'd been questioning, this isn't right, HE blocked me first then ended up showing himself first just to cause me panic and fear, why?? Why see me if he doesn't even want to talk to me before going radio silent and smearing me online? It. Was. A. HOOVER. 👏🏽🤠 I will, I just chewed over 7 hours of Dr Ramani last night. So much information (yet I'm still partly convinced I too was a narc abuser to him at least) | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/09/21 05:57 AM |
| 4 | I finally broke up with my narcissistic abusive ex and everyone around him thinks I'mI know all of this, but it's the trauma bonding (yeah I did my Dr Ramani deep dive lessons yesterday 🤓) that keeps me fantasising about him maybe one day (in the near future) will come crawling back to apologise to me for all that he's done. I legit did that the moment I found out how hurt and abused he (allegedly) felt by me, I wanted to let him know I'm so truly sorry and I never wanted to hurt him like that, NOT because I want to get back with him. When I'm hurt and mentioning breaking up he'… | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/09/21 05:52 AM |

| 3 | I finally broke up with my narcissistic abusive ex and everyone around him thinks I'mI'm SO disgusted by men honestly, they claim they're "a good guy", and how you're "not like the other girls" then lovebomb the shit out of you to hook you in then do the damage once you're stuck in the trap. The one man that responds to my texts 1 millisecond after I send them is my dad and he's 4 oceans away. And that's just the bare minimum. I was feeling so sorry for him too, I felt so bad for all of his abusive relationship stories (oh yeah he also has a "Narc mom" that has been abusing him … | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/09/21 05:45 AM |
| 3 | I finally broke up with my narcissistic abusive ex and everyone around him thinks I'mYou really hit it on the nail and I never even knew about this. Of course it makes sense, one of the reasons why narcs are so confident applying violence on some people is that they have a whole army of leeches waiting to suck his fake ass charming trustworthy helpful man-friend dick 🤢🤢🤢 | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/09/21 05:21 AM |
| 4 | I finally broke up with my narcissistic abusive ex and everyone around him thinks I'mHe already hoovered with the excuse of bringing me back my stuff, as someone concluded. Hell even the fucking police turned on me and said "Oh I talked to your ex partner, he is SUCH a nice guy and even brought all of this to you so you don't even have to move a finger. Also, if you break up with someone, of course they're going to feel upset and hurt and angry at you." after I told them every shit he did in detail, in TEARS W t f It was a pickme for sure 🤢 | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 19/09/21 05:19 AM |

| 8 | I finally broke up with my narcissistic abusive ex and everyone around him thinks I'mThat's what didn't make sense to me neither, for me it's always the moment he does something that I feel uncomfortable/upset/hurt about, I IMMEDIATELY confront him about it. Whereas for him, he would stay passive aggressive in silence and only bring up a huge pile of emotional frustration as a counter argument for when we have really ugly fights. Like, if I hurt you, why don't you say so when we were still together? Why did you wait until I broke it off once and for all and THEN start to defend … | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 18/09/21 09:12 PM |

And children won't guarantee you respect anyways, as single moms are still demonized and slutshamed while simultaneously being the #1 sexualised group (MILFs 🤢), whereas single dads are idolised for being such "brave heroes".

| 8 | How do you stop feelings from developing?i'm currently on the verge of getting ~ f e e l i n g s ~ for a person i've only been talking to for two days. their tactic is to "open up" and talk about seemingly deep philosophical things in order to invoke a trauma bond. STAY AWAY. ask yourself why you like them so much, ask yourself what makes you interested in them in first place. then ask yourself if those are qualities you can curate for yourself, and become that one person you would date and have feelings for. stay strong queen! ✨💓 | /r/FemaleDatingStrategy | 20/11/20 07:32 AM |
