Number 7: Narcissistic husbands hate their wives and blame them.
Do you know what offers the narcissist enjoys in marriage and relationships? It provides them positive attention and sexual satisfaction to support their ego and self-esteem. Narcissists will claim to love their spouse and children. For them, their love is real, but is it love? Narcissistic husbands seek someone of exceptional beauty, talent, or influence who admires them. The more special the prize, the more desirable and enhancing their self-esteem is.
Narcissists are often reluctant to accept responsibility for things they’ve done wrong. After the love bombing, they resort to abuse and blame-shifting once they can’t control you anymore. As a result, many narcissistic husbands find it easier to ignore the stress of accepting responsibility and pass all the blame to their wives.

They will often shift the action and tell you that it was because you did something awful to them that they resort to such action. As this kind of behavior of your husband continues, you will find yourself starting to believe them and accept the blame. Over time, this behavior can wear you down psychologically and emotionally. You may feel as though you have lost your sons of self.
We all know that narcissists are difficult to marry and that marrying them is probably one of the worst ideas. Of course, if we knew then what we know now, we would quickly discover that our husbands were wearing a disguise that even the most discerning individuals would miss. Behind the mask, is someone who has no capacity for unconditional love. While it may seem complicated to engage with them after their poor treatment, some who manage to survive may have done more than set up and maintain boundaries.
