It's been said that the homeless are the "Forgotten People" of the world...
But I think narcissists are the forgotten people.
No one who's ever dealt with one (especially for way too long) wants to do anything other than forget they ever existed.
When people die, we're told to remember the "good times"...
But when you've dealt with a narcissist, it's important to forget the good times too (if there were any), because first of all, remembering any of it takes up time and space in your brain...
More importantly though, if you think back on any good times and you wear your rose colored glasses to cover up the tinge of hurt and hell over every single memory, you're susceptible to being manipulated back into contact with the narcissist.
They want nothing more than to drain their favorite source of the very last drop of their lives. The very last morsel of their hope, happiness, and freedom. The narcissist would claim it all if they could.
