2. The narcissist does not give up easily.
When flattery, charm, and playing the victim don’t work, the Narcissist still doesn’t give up. Because if they are not able to control you and take you down directly, there is only one thing left to do. But in this instance, the Narcissist has less to work with. And it’s because they did not get close enough to you to find out any secrets or vulnerabilities.
So, the only thing left to do is to target those closest to you. There is always someone who will fall for the Narcissist and believe their lies, and the Narcissist will use that person to gain access to your life or just find out more about you. They would strike up a romantic relationship with your best friend or a family member. They will try to fall in favour with anyone in your circle and their only objective will be to make you uncomfortable and turn others against you. Because you have rejected the Narcissist, they want others to reject you as well.
The Narcissist is never just satisfied with hating you, betraying you, or abandoning you. They want everyone around you to do it as well. That is why they slander and smear people every chance they get. That is why they plant seeds of division and cast doubts on someone’s character. They are the type of people who will try to get you fired from your job. They are the type of people to frame you for things you did not do.
