And then, when the love-bombing is ending, the focus begins to change. And before you realize it, the Narcissist has you serving them and meeting their every need while they are doing nothing for you anymore. They no longer have time for you, they are no longer interested in what you have to say, they make you feel that you are bothering them or making their life miserable or difficult.
To The Narcissist, you are no longer a source of positive supply, as you are no longer someone that they feel they have to impress. So, you become a source from which they receive their dark form of Narcissistic Supply. Where tormenting you and hurting you is what delights them and brightens their day. Walking out of the house knowing that they have left you broken or in tears is what will help them get through the day.
In the mind of the Narcissist, because they once fought to secure your love, they now feel entitled to ruin you. After all, they didn’t invest all that time, money, and energy to not get anything back in return. And with Narcissists, there is no limit to when enough is enough.
This is why the love-bombing is no more than a trap to get you bonded to the Narcissist emotionally, physically, and mentally. The Narcissist creates a love experience that is not only surreal but addictive to keep you wanting them. But once they’ve got you where they want you, everything changes for the worst.
