This TRIGGERS The Narcissist More Than ANYTHING ELSE

ree

The Narcissist will always end up hating you. They will always end up mad and full of rage because there are things that trigger them more than anything else. These things cause them to feel upset and frightened, leading to a narcissistic injury followed by narcissistic rage. Unfortunately, there isn't much you can do about that because these are things you don't want to change.


ree

The things that trigger a narcissist more than anything else are:

  • Your happiness and contentment

  • Your pleasure and satisfaction

  • Your state of well-being


It's not just about enjoying someone's company, an event, or an activity. What triggers them the most is how you're able to generate your happiness from within. Even if you didn't have anyone or anything, you'd still be happy, and they know it. As an empath, you have the ability to understand the experiences and feelings of others outside of your own perspective. This makes your happiness and joy very intense and genuine.


ree

When you smile, you smile from your eyes. When you laugh, you laugh from your belly. It's a genuine and authentic emotion. While it feels good for you, it irritates and offends the narcissist. They feel upset, annoyed, and resentful, believing they have been treated unfairly. This leads them to lash out at you and become vengeful, even though they know you never intended to hurt them.


ree

Narcissists see their feelings as facts. If they're hurt, someone must be to blame. Lacking self-awareness, they never look at themselves to see that they are the issue. Witnessing your excitement intimidates them, giving them an inferiority complex, and they can't be around it.

Your happiness and joy trigger the narcissist more than anything else. They can't be around it.


ree

If they have to witness it, they will try to find something wrong with it, criticize it, or try to put a stop to it. They may even ghost you completely. They don't like to see it because they know their happiness isn't like that. Your happiness isn't dependent on other people or things; it's generated from within, from how you feel about yourself. You're confident in your qualities and abilities, and even if you were the most beautiful person in the world, they would still find a way to put you down.


ree

It's not just your external beauty; it's also your inner beauty that triggers the narcissist. They will always criticize you and make comments about it. You can also see the beauty in other people, both inside and out, which may often overwhelm you and produce a strong emotional effect. This intense feeling is another thing narcissists can't stand because it represents real intimacy—a deep emotional connection they will never experience.


ree

Narcissists often go out of their way to put on a show to prove to themselves and others that they can experience intimacy, but the truth is they never will. They are self-absorbed and lack empathy, so the only thing they can experience is narcissism. They can only experience you experiencing them, which is why they don't attach to you. They only want you to attach to them because that is the only thing that gives them satisfaction. Once the relationship is meant to move past that point and they're meant to attach to you, they can't do it. They're missing that component, which is why any relationship they get into will never last. They can't experience true intimacy or an emotional connection.


ree

If you're a normal, healthy person, you crave and desire intimacy in a relationship. The only thing narcissists know how to do is manipulate you and make you attach to them, which doesn't really satisfy them. It's not even a fraction of the feeling you get to experience when you're intimately involved with someone. This is why they can't stand you and are deeply envious and jealous of you. They know they will never get to experience that, which is why they end up hating anything positive or good that you get to experience.


ree

They will criticize you, put you down, and try to distract you to make it seem less impressive or valuable. They want to take away its significance and importance to you. They want to take away your desire and determination to achieve success. They want to destroy your goals and dreams because they hate your confidence. They hate that you have little doubt about yourself and your abilities. They hate your certainty and that you're self-assured.


ree

Deep down, they actually respect and admire you, but they can't acknowledge it because it's not them, and they know it will never be them. Instead of investing their time into themselves and their own lives, they spend their time trying to destroy your confidence by calling you names and insulting you. They want to show you that you're not as intelligent, important, or attractive as you think.


ree

Narcissists want to have power and control over you. They need you to hope or expect to get help or advice from them. They need you to depend on them. This is why they try to reduce your confidence, beliefs, and opinions. They don't want you to be independent. They don't want you to have everything you need without them because if that happens, they wouldn't have a foot in the door. They wouldn't have any ability to control you.


ree

They hate it when you think for yourself and do something different than what they expected. They need you to always agree with them because they're very insecure and have no control over their own emotions. They hate that you have an independent mind and are inclined to decide for yourself what to believe and do rather than simply accept things because they say you should.


ree

Everything about you triggers the narcissist. Everything you've done, everything that is good and positive about you, your happiness, excitement, and joy—it all triggers the narcissist. But it's not something you can change. It's not a problem you can resolve because they just can't accept your qualities. They can't accept that those qualities belong to you and not them. It irritates them because they want to control you.

The only thing you can do is disengage. You need to be around someone who will appreciate your qualities, respect you, and know and do what is morally right. Someone who will love everything about you and not try to control you. Because that is not love. Love has nothing to do with control. Love is about freedom. Love is about letting go.
