Today, I want to talk about What things you should not do During the No Contact narcissist.

Basically, once you still have to see or speak to a narcissist, that is not No Contact. But we see that limited contact or ignoring the narcissist is another valid option aside from no contact, and it’s where you only deal with them if and when it’s necessary.
