Video #3 Transcript

Hi Everyone,

It is Melody Chase.

Welcome to Part 3 of our Relationship Advice Series Video #3 – What Do to When Your Ex-partner has left your for an Narcissist.

If you haven’t watched Part 1 and Part 2 of this Series I would recommend watching those videos first and then join us here for Part 3.

In Part One I described what a Narcissist is, in Part 2 I explained how they managed to basically kidnap your partner and how they are keeping the hold on our partner as your partner is under the Narcissist’s control.

Now for Part 3 I will explain why being someone who wants to get back with the ex-partner who is with a Narcissist is unique and what it is that you have to do in order to wait out the Meantime Process in order to get back with your ex-partner.

When people find out you are holding a candle for your ex-partner most people think you are crazy, your partner is not deserving of having you back since they did chose to be with this other man or woman plus your partner originally initiated a relationship with this other man or woman.

Most People don’t understand what you are talking about when you say a “Narcissist kidnapped your partner” or the Stockholm Syndrome is in effect” – they pretty much think your relationship is a lost cause, you just don’t want to admit defeat, your partner is simply happier with someone else and it is time for you to carry on and find someone who will unconditionally love you for you and will make you happy.

However, a Counsellor in a Box Customer who is in this situation right now with his own wife who chose to be with another man who is a Narcissist explained the situation in the best way I ever heard, he said:

“A person in my position can accept that a Mid Life crisis is a mental lapse and potentially something that lasts a few years, often connected to hormonal changes (both men and women) and that many individuals are damaged by insensitive treatment as children which results in them becoming Narcissists in adulthood who seek out people who are vulnerable to becoming a source of Narcissistic Supply such as someone going through a Mid-life Crisis – others would be able to understand then and realize that you need tolerance and understanding as you cannot change progress, but only by not reacting to make things worse is the route that one can take until the process runs its course.”

So this situation is real, it is much more common then a person imagines but you and many other partners like you out there find yourself isolated and alone because no one understands what you are going through and can’t figure out why you just don’t give up or give your ex-partner an ultimatum – it’s eithor you or the other man or woman and that’s it.

Unfortunately, unlike a normal situation where a person has left for another man or woman and it is simply a matter of an ultimatum or waiting on the contrast effect for their partner to come back kicks in – give you ex-partner an ultimatum between you and the Narcissist or do anything rash or confrontal your ex-partner will not only chose the Narcissist they will be ensnared closer to the Narcissist.

If Narcissists feel threatened in anyway they will eithor seek to destroy the threat like the Terminator in which ever way they can (and they know how to use the Court system because they have used it to their advantage many times before so always be careful not to threaten the Narcissist yourself even if the Narcissist threatens first – just keep your own records of events or report any threats to the police but never initiate anything yourself) or if the Narcissist sees you as a threat the Narcissist will reign in your ex-partner even closer and go so far as to even threaten to get a Private Investigator to keep an eye on you and your ex-partner (tapping phones is not beyond the scope of ideas) and will request to see your partner’s phone-bills to a be able to account for anything that you ex-partner is doing and the Narcissist can totally get away with doing this because they hold your ex-partner over the barrel by threatening to leave if he or she doesn’t agree to the Narcissist’s terms.

The Narcissist will also often use the excuse that they have been taken advantage off and cheated on so many times in the past they just can’t handle being cheated on so they have to protect themselves and it is nothing personal to your ex-partner

The emotional terrorism also creates a negative association to you – it is so scary and stressful for your ex-partner to have contact with you even if they desire to do so gets to a point where it doesn’t feel like it is worth it to do so any longer and you are seen as the source of their unhappiness and/or potential unhappiness instead of Narcissist.

The Narcissist’s stories of woe about having been so wrongfully hurt in the past by partners will also convince your ex-partner that is it morally wrong to go behind the Narcissist’s back.

What the Narcissist is really doing is using your ex-partner as a source of? Narcissistic Supply by putting your partner between a rock and a hard place generating overwhelming guilt from your ex-partner to a point where there are too emotionally exhausted to even come to a win-win solution to order to have contact with you.

The Narcissist will also be keeping regular tabs on their Narcissistic Supply even without any reason so it will seem as if they have a 6th sense and will interrupt any contact you will attempt to have with your ex-partner anyway.

The only direction you can go in this situation then is not to be a Narcissistic Supply yourself (chances are you, yourself are also vulnerable to Narcissists so it was both you and your partner who drew the Narcissist in, in the first place) and do not further create opportunities for your ex-partner to be a source of Narcissistic Supply as well.

So what you need to do is not give the Narcissist the time of day and do not react to anything that the Narcissist and your ex-partner are doing together – protect your health, peace of mind, family, business and finances – otherwise let your ex-partner come to his or her own realizations of the situation that they are in.

So if you can keep some contact with you ex-partner and when in contact be polite, warm, friendly and loving plus if you can use the chance to resolve any old issues the two of you have had (this creates bonding and a clearing of blocked energy for the two of you) otherwise just let your ex-partner be.

It may seen throughout the course of this Video Series that we are being really dis-empowering to your ex-partner as if they don’t have a mind of their own – but by letting them be they will find out for themselves whether they are truly happy or not with this Narcissist -it is not your place to point it out to them – it is your place to offer them a supportive place to go if they chose to get out and that you will always love them and you are going to make the best of your life in the meantime and stay healthy and strong and be successful so that if he or she chooses to come back they will come back to a person who is whole, healthy and ready to rebuild a relationship with him or her.

The biggest challenge is that it may take longer than you were expecting to wait for your partner to come back – but as Bono from U2 once said “Love is patient, and what the soul loves the soul is willing to wait for” and you will find strength that you never new existed within you and you will find resources to support you along the way.

Speaking of resources – in the Youtube Write-up along with with in our Counsellor in a Box Blog at counsellorinabox.com/blog and our Love By Design Blog at lovebydesignbook.blogspot.com I list some further resources about Narcissists for you in a variety of different areas.

Thank you, have a Wonderful Day and Bye for Now!

A Special Message From the Counsellor in a Box Customer Mentioned in Part 3 of our Video Series

Upon watching Part 3 of our Series the Customer Who I mentioned in the Video was inspired to share this very important message with those who are dealing with Partners Who Have Left To Be With a Narcissist

“What I notice is that when the narcissist thinks he has won, he will rest. He thinks he has done it. If you have followed the plan as outlined by Melody, then is the time to still be distant, still give the impression of being ‘defeated’, but be completely agreeable to everything your partner requests (within boundaries) so that your partner feels safe and secure with you but without thinking that you want them back. Be their best friend but be wanting nothing in return.

In this way you have your self respect as you are a strong independent individual, BUT YOU ARE SO STRONG that you can be able to accept requests that are of no consequence to your position.

People considering this, in the previous stages that I have been through, will think this is rubbish because they may not have reached the stage of detachment yet. The pain will still be too strong. But we all get there… be patient, it will come.

For me this agreeable position was to allow my wife more money monthly. I was actually stepping away from the relationship but giving her more. In this way you give ground but take it back by giving the knowledge that you want nothing but the well being of your partner.

You see this is unconditional love AND the narcissist cannot do that. Narcissists only love themselves (because of their past trauma) and cannot genuinely show empathy.

What you do, after the pain has subsided in giving is a genuine act of love which is purity. Oh my God I have found religion. Smile

But you cannot do this until it feels right AND you MUST give yourself time. We cannot all do this, it is the feature of a strong person. But there are enough of us out there.

The very nature of reading this or watching Melody’s videos mean that YOU ARE a strong person.

Weak people walk away from marriage when it gets rocky.

This is the difference between a good marriage and a narcissist captivating your partner. Unconditional love a narcissist cannot compete with, because it is not part of their fabric.

Thank you Melody, I cannot tell you what an inspiration these videos are.”

~A.W.~

Hi Everyone,

Here is Part 2 of the Relationship Advice Video: What To Do When Your Partner Left You For a Narcissist.

In This Video I explain how the Narcissist ensnares your Partner and keeps a hold of him or her.

Click on The Link Below To Watch Video Part 2:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79EaTdA1nyg

Video #2 Transcript:

Hi – It it Melody Chase – Welcome to Part 2 of our Relationship Advice Videos Series #3 called What To Do If Your Partner of Has Left you for a Narcissist.

For a definition of a Narcissist see Video #1.

Now for Part 2 let’s discuss How the Narcissist Ensnares Your Partner.

So the way how the Narcissist works is that they seek out potential partners who are vulnerable and susceptible to being codependent and a source of Narcissistic Supply – this is someone who can be controlled by fear, guilt and shame in order for the Narcissist to get the attention fix they desire.

Anyone of any personality or level of education and life experience can become a source of Narcissist Supply – we all have our Kryptonite – something that creates fear in us and the Narcissist knows how the find our Kryptonite and especially if we have been the Narcissistic Supply for a Narcissistic Parent when we were growing up this increases our chances of drawing in Narcissistics that we can be vulnerable to as adults.

So the Narcissist will penetrate a couple by starting off as friends, business associates or an employee with one or both members of the couple – it is just as important to befriend and gain the trust of you as it is your partner in order to pump information out of you about your partner and to gain your trust and unlimited access to your partner.

In The beginning stages there is a lot of information gathering and a Narcissist will be your partner’s number one fan – admiring him or her and be 100% supportive of your partner and your partner’s beliefs and what they offer to the world.

Then with all information gathered in regards to your partner’s history and vulnerabilities especially since your partner is going to tell this new fan every little detail about their life and history because your partner is just loving all this attention, admiration and support – The Narcissist will now lie in wait for however long it takes for you and your partner to hit a low point in your relationship.

Usually it doesn’t take long since if the Narcissist has been drawn into your lives your partner has already been suffering from low-self esteem since “like attracts like’ and underneath the charm and the well-groomed presentation of the Narcissist they cover the fact that they have low self-esteem and in fact have a self-loathing towards themselves.

This is often because as children they came from abusive or neglectful homes and experienced a lot of trauma and they end up having so much hate built up towards themselves and their parents they are not willing to forgive or heal which is how the Narcissist Personality Disorder develops and continues to exist for them.

Speaking of well-groomed presentation – the Narcissist is going to be putting their best foot forward during the lying in wait stage – how they look, how efficient and functional they are – your partner is impressed by how successful and amazing the Narcissist is and if there is any adjustments to the Narcissist’s appearance that is needed to insure that that your partner will be attracted to them they will do – for example lose weight, wear certain clothing, dye their hair to the color that your partner desires and they will also be incorporating the same values and interests as your partner.

Then when you and your partner are at a low – often if there is a job loss or a dip in income or the two of you have to move in with in-laws, you are sick, you are your partner is suffering from post-partum depression, a Mid-life Crisis has begin for one or both of you, Empty Nest Syndrome etc and you and your partner are arguing a lot or have grown distant or distracted this is when the Narcissist strikes and starts oozing out sexual energy.

This sexual energy creates a chemical fog on your partner so all that they can think about is the Narcissist and then the Narcissist begins their series of “Take-Aways” – they disappear for periods of time and each time they do this, this wears away on your partner’s will until they can no longer deny that they cannot be without the Narcissist – the Narcissist when they come back from their “Take – Aways” showers your partner with attention, attraction and praise so that it is even worse being denied of this during the next take-away.

It is a form of Emotional Terrorism and at the same time the Narcissist is also making sure to come across as someone in need of being rescued, the strong front that they started off with is giving way to this vulnerable side where the Narcissist’s own spouse is being horrible and your partner needs to rescue him or her from them and all these other horrible events going on in their life (often they will wrap the take-aways into this drama of theirs so they have a genuine excuse for the take-away)and your partner is their only hope for a better life.

So now your partner is on a mission to save the Narcissist and this gives him or her a purpose and a drive that was lacking in the relationship with you. Now not only does this create undying dedication to rescuing the Narcissist it is keeping your partner distracted and 100% focused on the Narcissist. Worse yet everyone becomes a barrier and distraction from their role of saving the Narcissist so this “us versus them” bond is created between the Narcissist and your partner.

By this time you are wondering where the heck did your partner go? He or she is being dismissive and arrogant with you and you start fighting more and more – pretty much pushing your partner right into the Narcissists arms now.

Then one final perfectly timed “Take-away” fueled by pressure from the Narcissist to get rid of you now and your partner is toast – your partner has now given all power away to the Narcissist, he or she is then forced to be with him or her instead of you.

Once your partner leaves you -the Narcissist’s true colours come out but it is too late for your partner to do anything – he or she is too far invested and the Narcissist can do whatever they want now and your partner is at their mercy and if you are a threat of any sort to the Narcissist, the Narcissist will assure that your partner can not have anything to do with you – even if you share children or a business – contact will be minimum and the Narcissist will threaten to leave your partner anytime your partner complains about needing to have contact with you – in fact anything that the Narcissist doesn’t like about your partner’s behaviour the Narcissist will threaten to leave.

So then a strange thing happens – at first your ex-partner is in a euphoric state because against all odds he or she is now with the “man or woman” of his or her dreams – then reality hits that the Narcissist was totally lying about everything and isn’t at all what they presented originally and was just mirroring your partner in order to nab their Narcissistic Supply – however your partner is completely enmeshed, bonded and attracted to this Narcissist so your ex-partner is completely stuck and their brain can’t handle the truth so they go into denial still believing that they are with the person that they first fell in love with (and they did fall in love with this persona and there was physical attraction – this is real in your partner’s perception so you cannot argue or discount how your partner felt or is feeling)

So it is quite confusing because one time you talk to your ex-partner and he or she is high as a kite and happy as can be and saying that this is what they had always wanted (although it is the complete opposite to how you imagined your partner’s lifestyle to be like) and the next time you talk he or she is complaining about how chaotic the Narcissistic is and that if the Narcissist threatens to leave once more your ex-partner isn’t going to take it anymore. Your ex- partner will tell you it is like living in a Mine Field – anything can set the Narcissist off. As well in the most serious of cases if the your ex-partner gives any hints of wanting to leave the Narcissist will threaten to pursue them to the ends of the earth creating fear on the opposite end of the spectrum as well.

Yet in reality your partner is no where near ready to get out of the relationship – you think it looks like it’s about to come crashing down around them but then then next time you talk to your ex-partner he or she is all happy and enthused about the relationship again.

What is really happening is that he or she is caught in the Narcissist’s abuse cycle and your partner is swept back into denial in the make-up and honeymoon stages and because of the Narcissist’s need for continuous drama the cycle spins through very quickly at times.

So then what do you do in the meantime?

Join me in Part 3 of our Relationship Advice Video #3 Series – I will be discussing why dealing with both your ex-partner and the Narcissist is so unique and what? is the best approach and mindset to have during the Meantime Process.

As well – please refer the the Youtube Write-up, our Counsellor in a Box Blog at Counsellorinabox.com/Blog or my Love By Design Blog at lovebydesignbook.blogspot.com for the List of further Resources and Information about Narcissists.

Thank you – looking forward to connecting with your again in Part 3

Have a Wonderful Day and Bye for Now.

Relationship Advice: What To Do When Your Partner Left Your For A Narcissist – Part 1

Hi Everyone,

Here is Video #3 of our Relationship Advice Video Series called “Relationship Advice: What to Do When Your Partner Left You For a Narcissist – Part 1″

The overall theme of this video is to assist people in understanding the unique situation they are in when getting back with their ex-partner when the other man or woman is a Narcissist. In Part 1 I explain what a Narcissist is.

At the end of this Blog after the Video and Transcript of the Video there is a Link to the Complete Definition of the Narcissist Personality Disorder as well as further Information and Resources about Narcissists.

Click on the Link To Watch Part 1:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OzRtZwks-14


Here is the Transcript For Part 1:

Hi Everyone,

It is Melody Chase -Welcome to our Relationship Advice Video #3 – Part 1

Video #3 is going to be split into 3 Parts but the over-all theme I am going to be talking about is what to do when your ex-partner has left you for a Narcissist.

Over the last year or so I have noticed that with every single person I have talked to that is having Relationship difficulties there has been a Narcissist involved in the mix whether it was the other man or woman, a parent, a sibling, a child, a friend or even their partner.

Therefore for Relationship Advice Video #3 of our Series I would like the discuss the unique circumstances that you may find yourself in if your partner has left your for a Narcissist.

In the case where your partner had an affair with another man or woman and the other man or woman isn’t a Narcissist your partner will come to their senses and come back to you in a fairly quick amount of time.

If your ex-partner is involved with a Narcissist it becomes a stale-mate situation because the Narcissist has spun a web of illusion keeping your partner at bay and whenever there is any sign of your partner coming to their senses or any pressure from you to get your ex-partner back the Narcissist has fail-safe ways of reigning your ex even closer to him or her.

For Part 1 of Relationship Advice Video Series #3 I will be explaining what a Narcissist is, Part 2 I will explain how your the Narcissistic Ensnares Your Partner and in Part 3 I will have suggestions as to what you need to do for now and what Mindset you need to have to get through this time period or what I often call “The Mean-time.”

According to The American Psychiatric Association’s DSM-IV-TR they define a Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) as “an all-pervasive pattern of grandiosity (in fantasy or behaviour), need for admiration or adulation and lack of empathy, usually beginning by early adulthood and present in various contexts, such as family life and work.”

The DSM specifies nine diagnostic criteria. Five (or more) of these criteria must be met for a diagnosis of a Narcissistic Personality Disorder to be rendered.

I found this answer from wiki. answers.com there are amendments included and I shortened some of the definitions – for the full definition I will include the Website Link in the Youtube Video description and on my Blogs so I will read the shortened version of this list – even the shortened version of the list is quite long but I wanted to assist you in understanding all aspects of the Narcissistic Personality Disorder because it helps to explain how the Narcissist is able to pull the wool over people’s eyes and once having gained power over another person how they maintain their power.

So these criteria include:

The Narcissist Feels grandiose and self-important;

Is obsessed with fantasies of unlimited success, fame, fearsome power or unequaled brilliance (the cerebral narcissist), bodily beauty or sexual performance (the somatic narcissist), or ideal, everlasting, all-conquering love or passion;

Firmly convinced that he or she is unique and, being special therefore only wants to treated and associate with other special or unique, or high-status people (or institutions);

Requires excessive admiration, adulation, attention and affirmation or, failing that, wishes to be feared and to be notorious (often defined as Narcissistic Supply);

Feels entitled, Demands automatic and full compliance with his or her unreasonable expectations for special and favorable priority treatment;

Is “inter-personally exploitative”, i.e., uses others to achieve his or her own ends;

Devoid of empathy, Is unable or unwilling to identify with, acknowledge, or accept the feelings, needs, preferences, priorities, and choices of others;

Constantly envious of others and seeks to hurt or destroy the objects of his or her frustration;

Suffers from the beliefs that they are being pursued (paranoid) delusions as he or she believes that they feel the same about him or her and are likely to act similarly;

Behaves arrogantly and haughtily. Feels superior, invincible, immune, “above the law”, and has magical thinking;

Rages when frustrated, contradicted, or confronted by people he or she considers inferior to him or her and unworthy.

In Part 2 I will be back to explain about how the Narcissist Ensnares Your Partner and keeps a hold on him or her.

I will be including a Transcript of all Three Parts on my Counsellor in a Box Blog at counsellorinabox.com/blog and our Love By Design Blog at lovebydesignbook.blogspot.com

If you have any questions you can talk to Robby or myself at relationshipcentre@shaw.ca

Thank You and Bye for Now!

Relationship Advice Video: How To Eliminate Doubt In Order To Get Back With Your Ex-Partner

Hi Everyone,

Here is our Relationship Advice Video #2 – it is about Doubt – why we experience it and why it is important to eliminate it in order to focus our energy in the right way to get our ex-partners back. Since there is a lot of information that is included in the Video – I decided to include the Transcript of the Video following the Video Below:




Transcript:

Hi Everyone,

It’s Melody Chase Co-author of our Counsellor in a Box Rescue and Repair Home Study Program. (www.counsellorinabox.com)

Welcome To Our Relationship advice Video Series #2

In today’s Video I am going to be talking about doubt.

So your partner has left you for another man or woman – You knew at some level whether you are willing to admit it or not that there were problems going on in your relationship but you are still in shock that your partner was actually having an affair or left you for someone else. This is naturally going to create doubt in you mind anyway – you begin to wonder did you really know your partner and was your relationship real?

You start off sure and confident that your partner has made a mistake and he or she will be back soon after all it is you and your partner here not strangers – you have pledged your life to each others and you are connected and love each other’s deeply.

Then over time doubt starts to creep in – sure the relationship had problems but enough for your partner to leave? Could it be possible that you weren’t enough for you partner in order to keep him or her? This question will eventually come up because eithor your ex-partner will tell you this directly that you are not enough or were not enough or your ex-partner will come across as so happy and fulfilled with this other man or woman even if the other man or woman isn’t at all what you pictured your partner to be with or even if the other man or woman really dysfunctional – yet somehow it seems to be working for your ex-partner and he or she seems to be happy.

Then to add more doubt any person that you know – friends, family, in-laws or acquaintances who had any issues about you and your partner being in a relationship to begin or who are jealous or bitter about relationships in general and people who are genuinely concerned for your well being and don’t want to see you hurt again will come out of the woodwork and instead of consoling you and supporting you in getting back together with your ex-partner they will tell you any and/or all of the following:

They knew your partner was no good, the two of you weren’t good together, you were nothing but a puppy dog and he or she controlled and used you, you are better off without him or her or even go so far as to convince you that you are not wise in the ways of getting your partner back or you don’t have what it takes otherwise he or she would be back by now, your ex-partner is not strong enough or doesn’t have enough incentive to come back to you even if he or she wanted to and/or if the two of you were meant to be together none of this (in regards to the affair) would have happened in the first place and that you should stop wasting you life away and find someone who can truly make you happy.

Basically they will discount anything wonderful and good that you ever had with your partner and actually make you feel like you have made a huge mistake ever getting together with your partner in the first place and it would be an even bigger mistake getting back together with him or her now.

It is not surprising then that many people give up hope of ever getting back together with their partner – when meanwhile the only reasons why you are not together now is simply a build-up of deficiencies and toxicities including possible dysfunctional patterns that create no win situations and a feeling of hopelessness along with a lack of Relationship Mastery Skills that pushed your partner away into the arms of someone who claimed at first to be able to fulfill all the needs that your partner wasn’t getting in the relationship with you.

Even in really difficult situations where your partner had become addicted to this other man or woman and are continuously being seduced by their charm or kept at bay by the threat of losing this other man or woman – things are not all lost? and really its not what anyone else tells you to do or not to do that is going to prevent you from getting back with your ex-partner -? it is only your own self-doubt that is going to hold you back and cause delays in the process.

Self-doubt creates fear, exhaustion and black and white, all or nothing thinking so a lot of your energy is spent trying to keep the fears down and/or reacting or trying to convince or force your ex-partner to come back to you which just pushes your ex-partner away further.

All of this also makes him or her even more determined to prove to everyone that his or her new relationship is going to make it – after all just like you know now – no one likes to hear that they have made a mistake or that they are going to fail at something or be discounted for how they feel or what they are experiencing.

So the #1 thing you have to do right now is decide to release all self-doubt and doubt about whether you and your ex -partner is Highest and Best for each other and whether the two of you will get back together or not – time will reveal what is Highest and Best for everyone.

However you will never find out if you allow any doubt to continue ruling your thoughts – especially since? with the Law of Attraction what you focus on expands and what you resist persists – so you want to be spending your energy on focusing on creating the Life and Relationship of your Dreams with your ex-partner and/or whoever is Highest and Best for you and allow whatever is best to flow in – there is no benefit to doubt and it doesn’t serve anyone at all.

Even with dealing with nay-sayers – they cannot effect your beliefs or your subconcious mind if there is no doubt – doubt cannot gain access if it doesn’t exist for you.

You will find then that you can carry on in the meantime no longer being tortured by your doubt and bombarded by reasons to doubt that will be drawn in and created by your Subconscious Mind as long as the doubt is lingering in your mind and instead you will be able to find yourself in a state of joy and faith that everything will unfold in perfect timing and in perfect ways for everyone involved.

Most important you will be able to clearly listen and follow your guidance now since you are not distracted by fear – it is your inner knowing and heart that has keep you going and attracted this Video into your life so continue trusting this guidance now since you know it is working in your favor and all is well now and will be well in the future too.
