DO THEY LOVE their parents, siblings or children?
They will STATE they do....they may THINK they do....they may even BELIEVE they do.
Just as with all the delusions of the abuser, they have nothing REAL to compare it to.
They believe that what they perceive to be love is EXACTLY what others see as "love". ...
They BELIEVE that ANY of us, if in the same situation, would do and feel exactly what they do and feel.
The problem is, in the eyes of the abuser it is IMPOSSIBLE to EVER compare their situation to that of anyone else.
They think we are all just like THEY ARE.
They think we are ALL evil and that others live in the same delusions they do.
They "love" other people as they "love" their new computer....because it is useful, serves a purpose and is their POSSESSION. When that computer ceases to "function correctly" they get angry, throw it on the ground and stomp on it...then they smile, smugly, and go out to obtain a newer one...a BETTER one.
Since this is EXACTLY what they do to the PEOPLE they claim to "love" it appears that the computer and the people hold the same value to the abuser.
HOW could they really love anyone?!
They SAY they
love, but they are incapable of "loving" anyone in the way that an empathetic
person loves.
If you decide to count the poor substitute of what they
do have
as love...I suppose they do. IMHO, they have the capacity and the tendency to destroy
ANYONE who does NOT see them as perfect and chooses to stand up to
them or
disagree.
They "love" no one above THEMSELVES and their delusion of superiority
and
entitlement allows them to self-justify the damages they do to others as "correction",
"lessons" and "completely justifiable".
They will destroy
the soul of ANYONE
who
gets in their way or threatens to expose their lies, without a mere MOMENT
of
thought or refection
and by utilizing the most effective threat, no matter how vile.
They
will gaslight and mentally abuse ANYONE to the
point of near insanity and/or suicide and BELIEVE that they are not at fault or to
blame
and that the other person DESERVES IT.
They do NOTHING for anyone else
unless they have an ulterior motive.
They GIVE NOTHING to ANYONE else without scheming and planning how it will benefit them. If they see NO BENEFIT, they will not give.
The delusion is so STRONG that they
can say they love someone while systematically, and purposely, DESTROYING
that person.
They will take food from the mouths of the hungry to buy a
luxury item for
themselves and they will watch those they claim to love do without the
basic necessities
while proclaiming it to be a "lesson in respect".
They will utterly attack
and
attempt to destroy people who are weaker (or kinder) including the ill, the handicapped
or a child, without a hint of guilt or a second thought....simply because
they
feel
DESERVING of
all that they desire...and call those people SELFISH for NOT
recognizing their RIGHT to have whatever it is that they want.
The are evil
enough to
believe that ALL OTHERS are SELFISH for HAVING NEEDS that do not benefit
them.
Their "version of love" demand COMPLIANCE and WORSHIP, which they GLEEFULLY elicit with threats and abuse and torture and fear and withholding.
If they are unable to elicit these things they subject those they "love" to torment and every type of abuse...emotional, psychological, physical, spiritual, sexual, financial....which they dole out with a total lack of empathy and a sadistic JOY...replete with a blank, cold-eyed, dead stare and an evil "half-grin" which aptly displays their hatred of those they "love" and the, thinly veiled, threat of UTTER DESTRUCTION.
If threats of PERSONAL RUIN are not SUFFICIENT to control those they "love", they will progress to threats against someone that person LOVE.
Threats to destroy a beloved child, a cherished parent, a well-loved sibling, a dear friend or even a cherished pet....
They find THESE threats to be particularly EFFECTIVE and, in that way, they experience the ULTIMATE HIGH for an abuser...
DESTROYING the "loved one" utilizing their love for SOMEONE ELSE.
They manipulate and kill their "loved ones" with the very LOVE they envy and are incapable of feeling.
The ABUSER KNOWS it exists, however, and they do not HESITATE to utilize it to force the "respect" of a "wayward loved one".
OF COURSE...this is ENTIRELY "for the well-being" of those being "TAUGHT THE LESSON"
Indeed...the abuser was fairly FORCED into these acts by the disobedience of the "loved one" who refuses to listen to reason and play their assigned part in the "play",

Since this includes parents, siblings and, even their own, CHILDREN...IMHO,
they do not "love" them.
They simply have no love left over to give
once they
love
the only person who counts...
the ONLY REAL PERSON…
THEMSELVES.
I've been called "old money Baha'i for the simple reason that I'd rather have funds available for unexpected expenses. And yeah, a new outfit once in a while. Yeppers, I'm selfish ;/ And the narc can ...gedda job. Too old? Too bad, so sad! I wasn't the one who blew all that money on vacations (mask maintenance). Get really irked with these people - meanwhile, there ARE people out there with financial needs.
ReplyDeleteThe ex Narc told me he could not stand his mother. He maintains contact because she is old and has a lot of money that will be useful in the future. He admitted to not caring for anyone other than the children and I, his mother and sister less so.
ReplyDeleteI'm divorcing him and he spends very little time with the children (Thank God!). He is currently love bombing the new girlfriend, so shows little interest.
So no, they don't love blood relatives. They can't.
