Narcissists are some of the most dangerous men out there. I honestly think they should be sent to an island where they just have to put up with each other. Narcissists are worse than simple, mean jerks because simple, mean jerks are usually too dumb to hide the fact that they’re jerks. That’s good for everyone else because simply mean guys show their true colors early, so we know to run away. Narcissists, however, are manipulative and intelligent—almost to a sociopathic degree. They know that their true colors aren’t attractive, they know what kind of traits are attractive, and they are very good at pretending to be something they aren’t (generous, gentle, kind, patient) until you’re so attached that you can’t walk away. Then they unleash their narcissistic tendencies. Narcissists can really do a number on your mental and emotional health. Almost nobody walks away unscathed. Here is how to heal after dating a narcissist.

Block him. Everywhere.
Narcissists don’t take to be dumped kindly. They will try to text you, call you, email you, Facebook message you, call you at work, Instagram message you, and even show up at your door. Take every precaution you can to block the narcissist. If he shows up at your door, file a restraining order immediately. I’m not kidding.
