The Narcissist Is Crying

Does this mean they do care?

Oh yes, that crucial moment in the narcissist’s life, when you’ve had enough, but the narcissist hasn’t.

Narcissists will cry.

Narcissists will bawl like a baby.

And I’m talking about ugly crying with deep gasps for air.

It’s an ugly sight.

They’ll send you videos of it too, when in dire straits.

And by dire straits I mean you not believing a word they say and refusing to speak any longer.

Or it could just be, you going out with your friends when the narcissist told you that they don't want you going out, and not answering the narcissist’s calls.

Basically, when they're losing control of the situation.

Because whatever will a narcissist do when they can't control you, your decisions, or when the relationship ends.

That would fuck them up.

They'd lose their caretaker before having another one in place.

And the narcissist doesn't want to be homeless, or without your money.

Not before it becomes obsolete because of someone elses money.

When a narcissist needs to save the day, shame won’t be at play.

Not whatsoever.

They’ll fake a cancer diagnosis,

They’ll pretend they're dying,

And yes, they'll cry their hysterical baby tears too.

But do they care?

Absolutely not.

They’re crying for the hardship that awaits them, were you to actually be done with them.
