Do you think you could spot a narcissist?
Narcissists can be controlling and intolerant while refusing to acknowledge wrongdoings. Instead, they’ll use an array of manipulative strategies to escape blame and perpetuate abuse.

Even after the relationship ends, the emotional abuse can continue with tactics like “hoovering.”
