My son hasn't seen his narcissistic father in over a year and only once in two years. My daugher hasn't seen him at all in two years. Neither desires to see their self-absorbed and evil father. I can't say that I blame them. But, I hope that time will heal my kids, especially my son who seems to be more angry and/or hurt. I don't think it would be healthy for him to try to have a relationship with a narcissist for a number of reasons, so I hope his decision to go "no contact" on his father brings him some healing and peace. I don't expect anything out of an N, other than complete self-absorpotion, however it is so disheartening to know that someone could be so callous and not be affected by having no relationship or contact with his own kids. It would eat me up inside if I wasn't a part of their lives. Tasmanian has a new family so he isn't concerned at all about his former family. We've been replaced. I'm learing to accept that but to think of it in those terms is so sad, so sickening. I can't imagine going through life so shallow that not one person, even my own flesh and blood, having no meaning to me. I can't even fathom that.
The life of a narcissist is empty. It's a constant search to secure attention. It must be exhausting.
I hope my son learns to live at peace with his feelings and decisions regarding his father. I can only pray that he does.
