    Narcissism & Gaslighting - Part 1: Intimate Partners

    4 Narcissism & Gaslighting - Part 1: Intimate Partners Explicit I want to dive into narcissism & gaslighting and I realized that it will take more than one episode to get through it fully - so today we’re going to take a look at what it looked like in my first marriage, the damage it caused, & the good that has come from it. On the part 2 we’ll go into what it looks like with parents, step-parents, & anyone else you may cross paths with. Let me preface this by saying either person in a relationship can be a narcissist. In my case, it was my first husband. In my current husband’s case, his 2nd wife was the narcissist. So while I may say “he” that is because of my personal experience, just know that it can be a “she” as well. The basic traits & actions are the same regardless.
