He turned everyone who knew me against me. I was reprimanded for months by my mother and sister.
In fact, when I filed for divorce, he left our home, and my sister took care of him for months in hers. Additionally, my mother predicted that I would never meet another great man.
They made a variety of excuses for him and directly blamed me for not trying hard enough, and no amount of explanation could convince anyone of the reality of the marriage.
At some point, I stopped explaining and accepted the fact that people did not know my side of the story.
These days, all I can think about is how fortunate I am to have made it out alive and unscathed. I am sharing this to assure anyone who is dealing with a covert narcissist spouse that they are not insane.
Although the narcissist is a master manipulator and the things they are going through are real, they can make you question your own sanity.
