2. They aren’t going to change
Their brains do not have the capacity to interpret, empathy compassion, love, guilt, remorse, and integrity. They don’t operate like a normal person’s brain. The amygdala and the frontal lobes of their brain don’t function as normal people do, and this is the part of the brain that’s responsible for those feelings and emotions.
So that empathy, guilt, remorse, compassion, they don’t experience those. They don’t feel those feelings. That is how they can get away with doing the things that they do. That’s how they can treat people the way that they do because they truly don’t feel those feelings, and nothing is ever going to change that.
And again, you cannot trust what they tell you because you know they’re liars. You can and should only judge them by their patterns of behavior, nothing else. It’s important that victims really hear this because this is probably the most important fact for victims to come to terms with once and for all so that they can heal and move on with their lives.
If a victim doesn’t fully understand this and come to accept this, it’s gonna leave you extremely vulnerable to further abuse from the narcissist.
