Cut your losses and walk away.
Do not believe the person has changed. Most therapists agree that malignant narcissists or sociopaths cannot be treated effectively.
Instead, take steps to protect yourself. Consider drastic solutions like moving, changing jobs and making new friends.
Remember that it is all a game to the malignant narcissist or sociopath. She or he does not care if you're hurt. The only goal they have is winning. The only way you can beat a malignant narcissist or sociopath is to get away from the malignant narcissist or sociopath.
"Sociopaths hate us. All sociopaths know in their “heart-of-hearts” (so to speak) that we are the ones with the real power.
We have the advantage of being real people who can love and feel. We are flexible, reasonable. We have wisdom mingled in compassion.
A potent elixir for the ills and sorrows of life; the stuff human kindness is made of. Sociopaths hate us – they are loveless, and without conscience. – They also know while they hate us and use us – we can ruin them by exposure.
This evokes rage.
When individuals operate without a conscience they are able to do horrible things we would never dream of doing – and there is no moral compass or guilt feelings to stop them. ~ Dr. Deborah Ettel, PhD. Psychology
Sociopaths are limited. Sociopaths are reactionary, defensive, and grasping for what they perceive as power in money, and position.
Whatever ‘status’ they seem to hold is always fake.
They have nothing without hijacking other people’s lives. This can be on a grand scale involving millions of dollars, or at a low economic level for basic needs: housing, food, internet, clothes, a phone – and all else in between.
They crave a good reputation. Sometimes in the heat of being discovered, or in fear of losing a gain, they’ll take unplanned, improvised actions that may even cause themselves harm directly or indirectly in over-the-top criminality.
Their weakness is a constant fear of being unmasked. This and their limited minds makes them predictable. This leaves gaps and leverage for our escape from these monsters."
