husband's e-wife and daughter are NPD
My husband endured 27 years of marriage to a Narcisist, yet I am the one who has thoroughly researched this disorder. He is disinterested and knows only of the horrors inflicted. At one point a psychiatrist diagnosed her with NPD and of course she nevr went back. He is in denial that his daughter is also a Narcisist. She has caused all kinds of hurt and anger for me and many others and yet he expects me to put up with her and pretend that she is normal and nice. No reality check and no introspection about his past and how it affects him/us now. He continues to react to his daughter in the same fearful way that he did his exwife. It is coming between us and he is still choosing a Narcisist over a stable loving relationship. I don't know what to do.

Re: husband's e-wife and daughter are NPD
Samanda, I'm so sorry to hear what you are going through. It's very difficult, I guess it's hard when it's your child with the problem. Could it be that your husband is so traumitized by his experiences with the ex wife that he doesn't want to think about it? I have been in a similar position with my N sibling and I now know I have been bullied my whole life. I couldn't come to terms with the fact that I had been bullied for a long time, I always thought I would recognize a bully! I thought I had to stay in the relationship because it was family and that was my lot. I understand how hard it must be for you to have to watch your husband avoiding the issue.
I don't know what to suggest for the best. My own mom will not let go of the N sibling and I don't know why because she is bullied daily. I wish I had a better answer for you,i hope things improve soon
