L Hello everyone,

I'm reaching out for some guidance and book recommendations. I'm in a relationship that's making me question a lot, and I think some of you might have been in similar boats. I'm dating someone who might be narcissistic, and I'm torn between staying and leaving. I'm particularly interested in books aimed at men dealing with these kinds of relationships.

To give you some context: My partner often says one thing and does another. For example, she criticizes her ex for being narcissistic, but I've started noticing similar traits in her behavior towards me. It's like a mirror of what she accused him of. She's also made some pretty manipulative moves, like using pregnancy as a threat.

This situation has me doubting myself more than ever. Is it just me being overly negative, or are these red flags real? I've always struggled with self-trust, and this relationship hasn't helped.

I'm looking for books that can help me untangle my thoughts. Something that helps men understand and deal with partners who may have narcissistic tendencies. I want to make an informed decision about whether to stay in this relationship.

Any advice or book recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for lending an ear.
