Re: Book Recommendations
I didn't notice these two AMAZING books if you want to know what part YOU played in the "dance". These will help open your eyes and hopefully help you protect yourself from making conditioned choices thanks to past exploitive relationships that lead us here.
Anyone with a N parent is at risk for having a dysfunctional relationship with a N.
Loving a Narcissists can be cyclical and until we learn why we do and what the roots are to choosing them we are vulnerable to them.
Here's to BREAKING CYCLES!
