 I can vividly remember the time when I was assigned to the emergency room. It was almost the end of my shift when all of a sudden like a flash of lightning several people rushed inside- bleeding and all. There was a vehicular accident and there was an eight year old boy who has severe head trauma.
I rushed to the boy and managed his injuries. I can hear her mom crying in agony, trying to see and comfort his unconscious child. Then all of a sudden there was a load honking outside the emergency room. The honking sounds oddly familiar, it sounds like our car. Then glancing outside- it is our car and my husband is impatiently trying to let me know it’s time to go home.

Then I saw him left when the security guard tried to warn him. I thought that was it, I was kind of relieved to see him go but to my surprise as I was dressing some wound, was shocked to see my husband in front of me, hands on waist, looking frustrated and said “I’m tired and I’m hungry can you hurry up so I can go home and rest!”… I was stunned.
I can’t believe he can be that calloused and unsympathetic… This is one of the confessions of a wife being with a narcissist spouse. Being with a narcissist spouse can be very damaging to your being. The selfishness of a narcissist spouse is beyond understanding and comprehension of ordinary people.
Being with a narcissist spouse can be quite frustrating and exasperating. You have to know the truth about this kind of character before you trap yourself to a narcissist spouse. A narcissist spouse knows neither sympathy nor empathy. As long as it’s not them, they don’t bother. They will never walk an inch in someone else’s shoes.
They find it incomprehensible that some people can sacrifice so much time, money and effort fr other, unless that others is them. Having a relationship with a narcissist can really hurt your self esteem because they feel very superior from others. They always want to feel that they are an exception from anybody else.
They demand importance and special treatment. If they don’t get what they want or the treatment they “deserve” they will go to great heights of making you life a living hell. Being with them can be totally exhausting because they require constant self approval and praise, if you don’t they will find means and ways to put you down.
Being with a relationship with a narcissist can be frightening because you are prone to physical, verbal and emotional abuse. They can get overly jealous and they find it hard to listen to your excuses. A narcissist spouse is very envious and they thrive from the misery of others. They feel good and they feel more superior when they see that other people are faced with some kind of misfortune.
And without hesitation they will take advantage of you with every chance they get. They have neither care nor consideration from others as long as it is for their advantage. If you are involved with this kind of spouse, never let them get into you. Step up and don’t be afraid- stand up for yourself.
