7. “I love you.”
So the seventh lie you may hear from a narcissist is harsh. It’s a difficult one to hear and it’s a difficult one to talk about now too, but the lie is, “I love you.” It’s unfortunate and it’s sad all around because narcissists are deficient in emotional empathy. They have trouble making the types of connections that are necessary for true love. And this lack of empathy is also what allows them to hurt people without remorse.
And if you’ve been here, I feel for you because I’ve been here too, and it’s at this moment when you realize this lie, you probably end up feeling like you’ve been betrayed. You might be thinking things like, “How could somebody who ever loved me treat me in this way? How can someone who supposedly cares so much be so cruel?” And unfortunately, it is the lack of empathy that allows a narcissist to do that, to switch off the kindness and switch on the hate, just like that.

8. “You’re worthless.”
And the last lie that all narcissists will tell is, “You’re worthless.” That’s a lie, and unfortunately, it’s one that so many of us end up believing because after years of abuse, after years of gaslighting, we lose touch with who we truly are. We lose touch with our sense of self and self-worth. And if you’re in this place after a relationship with a narcissist, regardless of what kind of relationship it is, I want to share a video with you that has some powerful affirmations to help you get through this time. Now, of course, affirmations aren’t going to be the only thing to help heal you, but they can really help you get off to a good start. So I’m going to pop this video right over here, and I’ll see you next time.
