If you’ve ever been cheated on by a narcissist, you know it’s not just betrayal—it’s psychological warfare.

In this raw and eye-opening episode of Fake Love and Flying Monkeys, I’m breaking down the top 5 reasons narcissists betray their partners—and trust me, it’s not because of anything you did or didn’t do. If you’ve ever been blindsided by infidelity or left questioning your worth after a narcissist moved on like you never existed, this one’s for you.

"Cheating isn't about love for narcissists—it's about power, control, and ego."

We’re diving deep into the psychology behind narcissistic infidelity. From the compulsive need for validation to the thrill of deception, I’ll help you make sense of the chaos they create and the emotional wreckage they leave behind. This episode also explores how narcissists set the stage for cheating long before it happens, often grooming new supply while still in a relationship with you.

"They don't cheat because you're lacking. They cheat because their ego is never full."

What you’ll learn in this episode:

• The role of boredom and entitlement in their infidelity
• How cheating fits into the narcissist's cycle of idealise, devalue, and discard
• Why they’re addicted to the chase and how they sabotage real intimacy
• The devastating impact of betrayal on victims—and how to begin healing

"To a narcissist, loyalty is a one-way street—and they’re always the exception."

Whether you're still reeling from a narcissist's betrayal or trying to understand the patterns in your past relationships, this episode will validate your pain and give you the clarity you deserve. It’s not about blaming yourself—it’s about understanding the calculated cruelty behind their choices and reclaiming your power.
