Number 3: Stop Caring for Them and Become Indifferent
The one thing narcissists cannot tolerate above all else is developing an indifference towards them, which is why the biggest weapon that you can ever use against a narcissist, especially a covert one, is your absolute emotional indifference. Which means you need to stop caring for them. Why? Because it is your caring nature that they take advantage of. They weaponize it against you and use it to extract maximum supply.
Whenever you try to hold the narcissist accountable or say something to them that is the absolute truth, or you want them to realize that they have done something wrong, instead of reflecting, they become a victim. They start crying, wailing, and sobbing. They do things to make you feel guilty. They guilt trip you and make you feel ashamed as if you have committed a crime.
Ultimately, you self-abandon, put your pain aside, and then cater to their needs. You then try to fix their problems, and this is how they covertly control you. They get what they want without being overtly aggressive, and you feel emotionally shattered. If you are stuck in this cycle of recharging your supply tank, you need to stop caring for someone who preys on you and your emotions.

Number 4: Give Up Hoping and Accept Them as They Are
One of the main reasons you stay so long in a narcissistic relationship is that you hold on to what I call hopeless hope. Hope that the narcissist will change, hope that they will keep the promises, hope that things will get better, and hope that the future you dreamed of will finally come true.
Despite all the manipulation and lies, you stay hopeful until the very end, and even after things end, you still hope that they will return. You believe that there is a chance for things to improve, but that never happens. To set yourself free and win, you need to stop hoping things will be different because you are dealing with a lost cause, a hopeless situation that will never change.
The only person deserving any hope in the situation is you. The hope to heal and recover, the hope to move on and never look back. Real winning is accepting that they lured you in through an illusion. The real person never existed, and there was no connection at all. The good memories you hold on to are just breadcrumbs that, in reality, were insignificant things that an empathetic stranger would have done for you or with you.
