He knows it all happened and talks about it freely, but whenever I say anything against his family he acts as if I'm exaggerating and it makes me feel victimized again by the only other one who reallly understood what was going on. He says I'm going on hatred, but for me it's more like fear. Then he puzzles me by brandishing his hatred when he talks about her impending death. It's confusing. Dealing with a Narcissistic Family Member - Blog Entry30 Nov 2007 12:07 PM I have a narcissistic MIL, For over six years this woman berated, stalked and threatened me in an effort to keep me from taking her son. My husband and I had enough when she threatened my life again and threatened to take our child. She had the power to do these things. GFIL is a mafia type. We moved away with no contact for over seven years though MIL still stalked us. A year ago BIL contacted us to say MIL has terminal cancer. I didn't want to contact them, but my husband chose to. Now, all he does is ask me when she's going to die. He was abused by her and his sister when he was young. He hates them, but had to make this contact for closure I guess. I love him so much, but I still feel resentment that he would contact them after his promise to me. He understands my feelings, but just wants to act like things never happened. How can I continue to support my husband and be true to myself? |
