Why did my ex (narcissist) block and then unblock me within a week?

[Anonymous]

I broke up with my narcissist boyfriend a month ago because couldn’t stand anymore his devaluation of me and recently he blocked and then unblocked me within a week... So, what does it mean when someone block and then unblock you within a week?

Playing with you.

I’m not even sure if narcissistic people heal from the mental factors that contribute to it, or any traumas they maybe faced in their childhood, but it could certainly be (if not for all, some of them), mentally so. Basically I’m saying like, it’s not curable.

Just let them become famous or so, and they’d probably do best with people who love showering accolades, and such.

They’re not ideal for relationships with people who have needs themselves, and expect that ‘simple reciprocation’ in a typically balanced-relationship.

Yeah, it can work with a narcissist, but if only a person is used to being on the giving-not-receiving-end, or willing to rewire their brain for that narcissist, and POSSIBLY truly neglect themselves in an unhealthy manner, as consequence.

I highly recommend you do NOT entertain that relationship. 👐 It would be a handful of heartache. 🤕

I’ve entertained one before and it fed my sexual kink, without having to be “planning it” in role play, but I knew the dangers so then I just left him lmao.

I would never live with a narcissist. Also I’ve been through the grinder enough not to catch feelings with narcissist types, so that’s why I have no concern about them, but there are thin lines.

Don’t lose the real authentic person you are, or waste time away from more practical and realistic goals, that only grow with interest and promise of emotional/ sexual/ relational benefits, down the road of life.

The narcissist will promise you nothing.
👐😐 They only promise their selfish personality. Take it or leave it.

I suggest humbly and GENUINELY, you leave it. Who knows how severe his is. 🧐☝️😳

Nicer fish in the sea 🌊 💖

I currently got broken up with from my narcissist. What it seems to me is that narcissist block people so that they don’t feel guilty for living their best life. So by him having you blocked he has no idea what you’re doing or what you’re up to and can assume things in his mind about how you’re a terrible person and he’s his victim. Then, narcissist unblock because they want your attention. He doesn’t want you to move on or forget about him so he is unblocking you so that he can get ur attention, and try to get you to speak to him. Once he gets a validation that you aren’t over him and that he can have you whenever he pleases, he’ll just go back to blocking you

I hope you’ll recover soon from narcissistic relationship! I feel ashamed actually as I was stalking his new girlfriend and they broke up and I was waiting for him to pop up in her life again (and it happened in 2 weeks). I just wanted to prove myself that I wasn’t wrong about him and that he’s really abusive. After I saw stories where they are together i got blocked and then unblocked in a week...

You aren’t crazy. The big thing with narcissists is that they thrive off the idea that somebody is up SAST with them. So whether it’s you or this new girl, as long as someone is giving him attention he’s thriving. So if him and this girl break up, he’s going to look for your attention. If you don’t give that to him, he will go to the next girl. Sadly the only way to get over a narcissist is to get as far away from them as possible. My Therapist is telling me how people who are in abusive relationships tend to move on faster when they are further away. So she says that between now and the first 30 days of the break up, it’ll seem unbearable. But once you’ve gone a certain amount of time away from their abuse, it’s almost as if you forget that there was even love in the first place

Yeah... I am really trying to get him out of my head it’s just difficult. You’re right it’s better to stay away with no contact at all. Thank you!

[TeddyGotT]

He is probably hoping that you will check his social media and see all of the "look how good I am doing" posts and come running back

[Asker]

He got a new girlfriend as I found out later when we were together he was already dating her and both of our accounts are private...

[Guy13]

Not Ex apparently or you a stalker one of two.

[thattssitt]

He is expecting a message from you. Don’t give him what he wants. If he unblocks you then you block him.

[ItsTheNephilim]

Probably just bored and being nosy. Ignore him.
