 Stubborn N Father
My N father recently kicked me out of his house. I was living with him because he supported me while my mother could not. I had to move in with my mother who divorced my N father and is still paying the consequences over a decade later. He looked at me moving in with her as a huge betrayal. I don't know where else he expected me to go. He even recently told a friend that he didn't kick me out. He blamed everything on me. This happened almost 2 months ago and he still hasn't talked to me. I still want to have communication with him because he is my dad and I do love him despite his Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Is this even possible?

Re: Stubborn N Father
Welcome to the forum, Olivia.
I am sure this situation has left your reeling. You did what you had to do, but he'll never acknowledge that. Narcissists blame others for what they do.
If you want to have a relationship with him, the first thing you must take into account is that he won't take any responsibility for his actions. That isn't going to change. You won't get him to see your side in this situation. He's just not wired that way. It's always going to be about him, no matter what it is.
Here is an article that might be helpful.
