Recognising the Predator in Your Life

So how did I end up dating

I do not like people invading my personal body space. It’s one of those boundaries I hold dear, yet it’s a boundary narcissists seem to delight in crossing. Nearly all narcissists and psychopaths follow the same modus operandi when operating in intimate relationships. I know this all too well, having spent around four years in a relationship with one. Back then, I didn’t even know the word “narcissist,” but I sure do now—especially after the brain damage I endured as a result of that relationship.

Many people have dated or are currently dating a narcissist, psychopath, or someone with both traits. Some have already had their lives destroyed. Some are suffering from abuse right now. Others are even in danger of being killed. Sadly, only a few ever manage to escape such relationships.

It’s frighteningly easy for a narcissist or a narcissistic psychopath to fool people. They look and act like normal individuals, blending seamlessly into society. But beneath the surface, they are anything but normal.

In today’s society, many people display psychopathic traits

The elite control us through national and international media, especially social media. This has led to a shift in many people’s values and behaviours. Media can have a profoundly negative influence, causing individuals to unknowingly adopt more psychopathic traits. Luckily, these people will never become real psychopaths. Real psychopaths have had these traits since childhood.

Sometimes, I can’t help but feel the elite enjoy it when people become more psychopathic. It allows real psychopaths to blend more easily into society. This is especially evident when we see how many among the elite are psychopaths themselves. Just look at Jeffrey Epstein’s case and his circle of famous elites, which included politicians, film stars, and even royal family members.

Sadly, this erosion of morality makes it harder for humanity to distinguish right from wrong.

How do you recognise a narcissistic psychopath?

How do you recognise a narcissistic psychopath?

A real psychopath can come in many forms. Recognising a narcissistic psychopath can be challenging, but I can share insights from my personal experience.

Psychopaths or narcissistic psychopaths can also vary widely. I believe a real psychopath can be recognised by their eyes. Have you ever looked into the eyes of a psychopath? Our eyes are meant to be the window to our souls.

At first glance, you may not notice anything unusual about their eyes. But look deeper. Their eyes often lack expression. If you focus on someone’s eyes without staring, you’ll eventually notice an emptiness behind them. More often than not, their eyes are dark and motionless. You can test this by looking at the eyes of famous psychopaths throughout history.

When you look into their eyes, it’s like staring evil directly in the face. You might feel shivers run down your spine or an overwhelming sense of discomfort.

Most famous psychopaths in history.

Narcissistic psychopaths have predatory behaviour

Narcissistic psychopaths have a predatory behavior

A good way to identify a narcissistic psychopath is by observing their predatory behaviour. All psychopaths are like predators. They set their sights on someone and take full control over that person. They follow specific predatory steps, much like a spider or a pitcher plant. A spider catches its victim in its web, while a pitcher plant lures its victim with a sweet smell. How could you resist something so inviting?

The narcissistic psychopaths I’ve encountered seem territorial. Sadly, I seem to attract them. They hunt and prey like lone wolves, claiming their territory as their own. You cannot invade it. They use carefully thought-out techniques to embed themselves into intimate relationships.

The 7 Stages of a Narcissistic Psychopath’s Predatory Behaviour

  1. Seduction
  2. Showering with love
  3. Building a bond like never before
  4. Trauma
  5. Entrapment
  6. Use you and others
  7. Discard

Let me explain each one in more detail.

The first stage of a narcissistic psychopath is seduction

This usually starts with number one

When you first meet a narcissistic psychopath, they will seduce you by discovering what you desire in life. They are excellent character readers and information absorbers. They will morph into the type of partner you need, whether boyish, mature, or manly.

At this stage, they mimic the victim to gain trust. They may adopt similar dress styles, speech patterns, or even scents. Their self-confidence is a key tool in seduction, as they know how to fascinate their victim with their lifestyle—real or fabricated.

One morning, I was surprised to wake up and be told, “Get dressed now in jeans and a long-sleeved top.” I was going to have a lesson to learn how to ride a dirt bike. I loved this day as I felt so good and confident. I was so proud of myself that I was able to ride something so big and powerful. Being able to do that made me feel so strong. Thus, I ended up buying the dirt bike I was riding. I now know that this was all part of the plan to destroy me.

The second stage is showering you with love

The second stage is showering you with love

In this stage, they shower you with love and affection, making you feel like their idol. They will go the extra mile, acting perfect and selfless. You’ll receive gifts,- Why do narcissists love 2 give gifts? compliments, and undying declarations of love. This is when you start to fall for them, becoming addicted to their attention.

As my birthday surprise, I was told to meet at a friend’s bar. I was sent on a treasure hunt, going to all my friends’ bars for a present and a special drink. This made the whole town think what a wonderful partner I had. This made me withdraw and become even more silent. The way I handled this reaction from my friends was to disassociate.

The third stage Building a bond like never before

The third stage Building a bond like never before

Here, they share their deepest, darkest secrets—often lies—to encourage you to share yours. These secrets will later be used against you. They will also deepen the sexual relationship, making it intense and frequent to enslave you further.

Narcissistic psychopaths will get you addicted to sex with them because they want you to become their slave and start to control you. They might be excellent at lovemaking since they have had many victims to practice on. Sex can be one of the greatest tools for enslaving someone. Since most people become addicted to it, and psychopaths know that.

The fourth stage is trauma

The fourth stage is trauma

Once they’ve gained your full trust, they strike. They may become indifferent, violent, or create a love triangle. This trauma strengthens the bond, leaving you in a state of cognitive dissonance.

Have you heard of Stockholm syndrome?  It’s commonly linked to high-profile kidnappings and hostage situations. In some cases of rape, the victim can become so attached to the rapist that they even think they love them.

Another reason why they use trauma bonding is to put you into an altered state of consciousness. You can get into a spellbound state because of cognitive dissonance. Your brain cannot comprehend how a loving person can suddenly turn violent or indifferent.

The fifth stage Entrapment

The fifth stage Entrapment

They will trap you—whether through pregnancy, marriage, or isolation from friends and family—while keeping themselves free to pursue other victims.

Many times, they will isolate you from all your friends by telling you how worthless you are and how your friends never liked you. Separating you from your family is something they love to do so you have to rely on them.

The sixth stage Is to use you and others

The sixth stage Is to use you and others

The narcissistic psychopath will continue to use similar strategies on all victims. Most victims will not find out about each other due to the psychopath’s excellent lying and secrecy skills.

Regularly, they will use all their victims to get emotional and sexual power as well as money. They will give you time to recover and then destroy you again. They will keep doing this as long as there are things for them to benefit from.

They will continue to use you and others for emotional, sexual, and financial gain, repeating the cycle of trauma and recovery.

The seventh stage Discard

The seventh stage Discard

Once they are finally finished with you—whether that’s because of age, poverty, or illness—they will discard you. They will do so in the most hurtful way possible. When they deal the final blow, it can sometimes be deadly.

When a victim can break free, they will never comprehend how anyone could be so cruel. Victims have been known to commit suicide, consume lots of alcohol, or find other ways to self-destruct.

People usually do recover, but they will never be the same. The thoughts of the abuse will always be there. Only a few people will recover completely. These are the ones that fight.

So how do you protect yourself?

So how do you protect yourself?

The only way you can protect yourself is to have your priorities straight. You could also get a big dog. Then they will find it hard to control you.

The best way is to try not to allow them to get to stage three, but that is often hard to do. Please talk to a friend – 1 Dazzling Truth About True Friendship

Try not to fall for all the love and praise they are giving you. Remember, they do this to make you look like their god. When they start to put you down, be aware of that behaviour. Stand up to them and ask, “Why did you act like that?”

Takeaway

Do not let them be number one

Do not let them be number one

Narcissistic psychopaths will try to make themselves the centre of your world. If you allow this, it will not end well. Refuse to make them your idol, and while you may still get hurt, you will never be fully destroyed.

I hope this helps you understand some of the traits of a narcissistic psychopath.
