RE: Closing the door on codependency
my ex-husband is a narcissist and the final tie that I got to cut was the fact that our youngest is 18 and fairly independent. He's been trying to keep his hooks in me for YEARS but I wouldn't let him. Release the bad and breathe in the good....and maybe get an order of protection.
I am very happy to hear you are able to be free. I am considering the order of protection. I think there is communication from me that should take place before I follow through on that step. I have been cushioning blows to reach a point of mutual understanding so I can strengthen boundaries. It has been very calculated in hopes the person would reach a more mentally stable and receptive place for conversation, but I see now that isn't going to happen. :(
