• Narcissists rarely regret leaving anyone, including good women.
Narcissists are so self-absorbed that they believe the world revolves around them. They think they’re perfect and everyone else is just an accessory to their lives. So when it comes to leaving someone, even a “good” woman, they don’t see what’s wrong with it because in their minds, nothing could be better than themselves!
• They often believe they made the right decision and that their ex-partner was not good enough for them.
In a narcissist’s mind, there’s no such thing as being too good for someone. If anything, everyone else is beneath them! That means if they left a “good” woman behind, she must have been lacking something (according to the narcissist). Maybe she wasn’t pretty enough or didn’t make enough money – who knows? But whatever reason the narcissist came up with in his head makes him feel justified about leaving her.
• Narcissists tend to have a distorted view of reality and may rewrite history in their minds to justify their actions.
It’s like living in an alternate universe when you’re dealing with a narcissist. They’ll twist things around until everything fits into place according to how they want it to be seen. Even if deep down inside he knows he messed up by leaving this great girl behind…he can convince himself otherwise very easily!
• They are more likely to feel regret over losing control or power than over losing an individual person.
When you’ve got all your eggs in one basket (yourself), then nothing really matters except keeping yourself on top! Losing control or power would mean admitting defeat which goes against every fiber of a narcissist’s being. And honestly…losing some random chick isn’t going shake his confidence much
• A narcissist’s sense of entitlement can prevent them from feeling remorse or empathy towards others, even if they were once close with them.
Narcissists are like toddlers that never grew up. They want what they want when they want it, and if you don’t give it to them – well too bad for you! Empathy or remorse is something that just doesn’t concern a narcissist because everything in their life revolves around themselves!
• They may try to come back into the woman’s life later on when it benefits them, but this is usually due to a desire for attention rather than genuine regret.
A narcissist will do anything for attention (including coming back into your life) as long as he gets his fix of being the center of attention again. But don’t be fooled by any sweet words or actions…it’s all just part of his game plan!
• If a narcissist does express regret, it is often only because they want something from the woman again and are trying to manipulate her emotions.
If there’s one thing we know about narcissists, it’s that they’re master manipulators! So if he ever expresses “regret” over leaving you behind…you can bet your bottom dollar he wants something out of you whether its money sex or power
• In general, it is unlikely that a narcissist will experience true remorse for any harm caused by their behavior.
It’s hard enough getting an apology from anyone these days let alone someone who thinks so highly of themselves. A Narcissistic person has no reason to show actual remorse since their sense-of-self typically isn’t affected by other people anyway
