Number 3: They will be more irritated with you.
Narcissists are often very happy and satisfied with the relationship until they aren’t. Suddenly, they feel like their needs are not being met and they start to get frustrated with you. They may also accuse you of wrong things or make unreasonable demands. This signifies that they are done with their relationship but don’t want to end it because they still need something from you.
Seeing your narcissist becoming more irritated with you can signify that they’re ready to move on. This can also suggest their boredom with a relationship but this irritation is usually more intense and directed at you. They might start to feel like they are wasting their time with you and want to find someone who’ll be more appreciative of them. You may find yourself being treated poorly and in a degrading manner.
Number 4: They will devalue and criticize everything you do.
Narcissists see the world in black and white… There is no Nuance, no gray area. If you disappoint them in any way, they will make sure you know it. They will also ensure that you know how much better they are in every way possible. When they are done with you, narcissists will devalue and criticize everything you do… You are either perfect or worthless.

Narcissists do this because they want to ensure that there’s no way for you to feel good about yourself or be successful so that they can feel Superior to you.
