Thanks for sharing this Celeste! I am still coy writing about my narcissistic ex, but I love reading other people’s stories, especially when they have a happy ending.

I would never have gotten sober if it wasn’t for my relationship with my ex. So in a way, the whole thing was a gift, even though I never believed I would think that.

It’s hard to be with someone who has no empathy and hard to handle having shared friends who still seem to think they are great.

I’m glad you found to courage to leave! Congratulations on your sobriety too <3
