3. “You’re paranoid and insecure.”
When caught in wrongdoing, such as cheating, a narcissist will deny everything. Instead of admitting fault, they will gaslight you by saying things like, “You’re paranoid and insecure.” This tactic makes you doubt your perceptions and reality, which keeps them in control.
4. “I cheated because of your behavior.”
If they cannot deny their infidelity, the narcissist will shift the blame directly onto you. A common phrase is, “I cheated because of your behavior.” Using this tactic, they deflect responsibility and manipulate you into feeling guilty for something entirely their choice.
5. “You’re the one who’s crazy.”
Narcissists frequently weaponize your emotions, often calling you “crazy” to discredit your feelings or reactions. When you confront them about their behavior, expect to hear statements like, “You’re the one who’s crazy.” This not only invalidates your experiences but also casts them as stable, rational ones, further manipulating how others view the situation.
