We are all drawn to romantic partners for different reasons. In the past two months I have received multiple requests to dive a little deeper into the connection between narcissists and codependents.
In this video I will be breaking down talking this perfectly orchestrated behavioral dance to hopefully add some clarity.

In this video, I cover:
...10 Codependent Behaviors
...10 Narcissistic Behaviors
...An Outline of the Interaction between Codependents and Narcissists
...Why These Two Personalities Are Together (And Can’t Seem to Break Up)
...How to Change the Dance

All relationships are a dance - “I do this, you do that” as you move through life. In this situation, the dance is almost inevitable without any interruption. A codependent is an over-giver, and feels overly responsible for others' happiness. A narcissist wants you to over give, wants you to be responsible for their happiness. It couldn't be more perfectly aligned. As a codependent, giving and sacrificing is what you do, it's natural, so you are drawn to narcissists who are selfish, self-centered and controlling, and it can be challenging to recognize the harm that is being done. Both parties are mesmerized by the dance because unresolved childhood injuries are being played out so it feels familiar. Without understanding what is beneath these behaviors and patterns, change is unlikely.

It's not about fixing your partner, it's about figuring out why your self-esteem is so low, if you're the codependent. You must ask the tough questions, like why do you think you can't do better than this? Why are you so afraid of conflict that you won't confront your partner in a healthy way? These answers go all the way back to the home you grew up in, and revealing the original injuries in your life.
