Inspirational Quotes
Published by Carrie Reimer
I think everyone at one time or another thinks, "If I only knew then what I know now." I share my life experiences in hopes a few less people have to look back and want a "do over". Through my Lady Witha Truck blog I have spent 8 years sharing my experiences while being in an abusive relationship with a man I consider to be a narcissist/psychopath and through my other blog, Reimer Reason I share lessons learned throughout the 60 years of my life. No experience is a waste as long as you learn from it and if I can save someone else making the same mistakes I made, then it makes it all worth while. I am an expert on my life, not yours, my opinions are my own, not yours, and I enjoy open respectful communication on most topics. If I don't have an answer I will research it until I do. I have a sweetheart of a dog named Stella, a 4 year old Pitbull, Mastiff cross. I am artistic, enjoy bringing new life to antiques, gardening, refurbishing and repurposing other people's "garbage", reading, writing and being outside in nature. I have a 34 year old son who I am extremely proud of and a 7 yr old granddaughter I don't see near enough. I live on welfare after a lifetime of working full time because I have heart failure. I have gone from being a home owner and landlord to being homeless and living in my car. I continually strive to be the best me that I can be and look at life as a learning experience and an opportunity to learn about other people and myself. Never a dull moment!

Have you read that book ‘Why Does He Do That?’ by Lundy Bancroft.
It helped me decode my Narcissist’s emotional abuse.
I Highly recommend it. The author worked with men who were physically and or emotionally abusive for years and I was surprised to see every tactic my Narcissist used to control, and disrespect me in the book, and learned that it was his value system, which is pretty much condoned by the media, which allowed him feel it was ok to do what he was doing in order to get control and avoid responsibility.
The last quote reminded me of my N. Because he wanted me t be jealous of other women AND have other women be jealous of me. Essentially, he likes to play women off of each other. Which was also in the book. I highly encourage EVERY WOMAN to check this book out.

There are moments when you realize you may have hurt another, not from intent but because the things in life that you both desired seemed to take separate paths. Or that the love you thought you felt was not fully the love it should of been. Or you had unrealistic expectations of yourself or of the other person. It does not make you a bad person. It simply makes you a flawed human. And I for one am flawed.

Lonelyheart,
I used to say to my ex all the time. There is no crime in falling out of love with someone. If you don’t love me any more I will go away, I don’t want to be with someone who doesn’t want to be with me. The crime is when you know a person loves you and you don’t love that person yet you don’t leave, you stay and blame the other person, tell them that you love them but they have to change this or that and it is never good enough. THEN you are wrong. I have broken a few hearts in my day, you fall out of love or the other person loves you more than you love them, shit happens and it hurts but the person moves on. With a narcissist they systematically destroy the person they say they love, they use emotional, mental, physical and financial abuse to literally destroy a person. That is not simply “falling out of love”.
Thanks for commenting lonelyheart
