"When a narcissist says 'You're too good for me,' they’re not showing humility—they're manipulating you."

If you've ever heard this phrase in a relationship with a narcissist, you've experienced a classic narcissistic manipulation tactic. While it may seem like they’re being self-aware, this statement is designed to create emotional confusion and keep you emotionally entangled in the toxic cycle.

Narcissists use phrases like this to create emotional confusion and manipulate your thoughts, making you question your reality and remain trapped in the relationship." These tactics, designed to confuse and control, leave you feeling unsure and vulnerable, questioning why they push you away but expect you to stay.

In this episode, we’ll explore why narcissists use these phrases, what they truly mean, and how their words deeply affect your emotional health. By understanding their tactics, you can take steps to protect yourself from their toxic narcissistic influence and break free from their control.
