3. Isolating you from your family and friends
If they are isolating you from your family and friends who love you or god forbid if they are alienating you from your own children, then it’s time to leave. Narcissists want to isolate you from other people because they don’t want you to have any other support system than them, and they certainly don’t want anyone telling you that you’re being abused or treated terribly.
So they will slowly start isolating you from people in your life that care about you and that you care for. They may try and get you to believe bad things about your family and friends, in an effort to make you distrust them or pick sides, or they may get angry anytime someone in your family is around making you want to avoid them so as not to anger the narcissist.
If they are trying to make your own children think bad of you or turn your own kids against you, understand these things are only going to get worse and it’s time for you to get away and stay away.
