It Would Have Just Been Easier If..
It would have been so much easier if he just would have hit me, just once. But he didn’t.
It would have been easier if he had just been a jerk to me all the time. But he wasn’t.
It would be easier to see the abuse.
It would be easier to talk about it and identify it.
It would be easier to explain it to others.
It would be easier to leave.
It would be easier to not be in the relationship in the first place.
It would just be easier if they were an asshole all the time. But they aren't.
There certainly were days where I thought to myself, this would all be easier if he were just mean all the time. But he truly wasn’t and still isn’t. He has good traits too. He is charming at times. He is helpful. He is funny and even pleasant to be around.This is certainly a large part of the problem with covert narcissists. Those good traits can leave a victim in a huge quandary for years or even decades. Even four and a half years out of my marriage, this quandary showed up yet again.
I am Renee Swanson, and I help people recover from covert narcissistic abuse.
- Are you tired of feeling isolated and alone?
- Are you searching for people who get it?
- Are you confused, reactive and unsure what to do?
- Are you running in circles in your mind?
- Are you worried for your kids and the effect this is having on them?
- Do you want to know how not to raise another narcissist in this world?
