88. Help! I Married a Narcissist. What Now?

If you grew up with a narcissistic or emotionally limited mother, you learned to survive in an environment where love was conditional and your worth was tied to how much you gave. So when you met him—the charming, attentive, affectionate man who made you feel seen—it didn’t feel dangerous. It felt like love. Like finally being chosen.But over time, the warmth faded. The pressure grew. No matter how much you gave, it was never enough. And maybe, just maybe, you started to wonder if you were the problem.Here’s the truth: you didn’t attract this. You didn’t cause this. Your need to be loved was never the issue. But he? He was never going to be satisfied.You don’t have to keep playing this game. You get to name it. You get to heal.
