I’m the one who should be going no contact.

Imagine the scenario.

Your covert narcissist ex lied, devalued, sabotaged, and gaslit you for the last time — at least you think it was for the last time.

You gather all the strength you can muster and leave.

You will not go back, but you don’t want to worsen their misery. The covert narcissist’s existence is so very sad. You just want to heal your broken heart and move forward.

The breakup had an unexpected silver lining. You have time to clean, to organize, to sort through your things.

You find a few things that belong to your ex and want to return them. You send a text only to discover you’ve been blocked. You try Messenger. Same thing. Instagram. Same thing.

You’re so confused. You thought you parted on good terms. You agreed to be friends.

Now they’ve blocked you. Why?

Why does a narcissist do anything?

  1. To gain narcissistic supply
  2. To preserve their false version of reality

Why would they block you when they were the one who was hurtful?
