How do you forgive people with narcissistic tendencies? Someone who has traumatized you repetitively? I have deep rooted emotional deprivation from childhood neglect and my partner reminds me of that during the times they aren’t supportive of me during times I’ll even beg for emotional support. It just starts an argument. Their narcissistic tendencies is their own response to their own trauma, it being a mental illness. They don’t want to, are aware of it, but almost as if they have no control over it because  “my extreme feelings are offensive.” (Even if it isn’t about them.) With that being said, I do have very deep feelings of disdain and repulse for them, even though they’ve saved my life and created opportunity for my life. We also have a child together which is why I’m trying to navigate through such occurrences. When I feel constantly invalidated by previous partners, I just up and leave, every time. But I don’t feel during a pandemic especially would it be beneficial to take my kid back to my conservative household where all my mental health issues began. I do love them. (My partner) I just want to be able to forgive so I’m not dissociating all the time and happier in my head in different scenarios instead of reality. Any advice is appreciated.
