Losing Yourself in a Narcissistic Relationshi...
When you're in a narcissistic relationship, your world quietly starts to shrink.
Many of us enter relationships hoping to fill a void, searching for someone to complete us. But what if the key to a fulfilling relationship isn’t in seeking completion, but in becoming whole ourselves?
When we carry unresolved wounds, self-doubt, or the belief that we are “not enough,” we unintentionally place expectations on others to fix what only we can heal. This leads to disappointment, dependency, and imbalance in our relationships.
A true, healthy relationship is not about seeking - it’s about giving freely.
When you are whole within yourself:
• You love without conditions, not out of need.
• You stand strong in your worth, knowing you are enough.
• You attract relationships based on mutual respect and shared growth.
• You break free from the cycle of seeking validation and start experiencing genuine connection.
Rediscover your completeness so that you can enter relationships from a place of strength, confidence, and love, rather than fear, lack, and longing.
Stop searching for your “better half.” You are already whole.
