Fake Love and Flying Monkeys

Why Covert Narcissists Accuse You of Cheating When They Are


Listen Later

Ever been accused of cheating by a narcissist — even when you’ve been nothing but loyal? This episode dives into one of their most toxic manipulation tactics: projection.

We explore why narcissists often blame their partners for cheating while they’re the ones actually betraying the relationship. This behaviour is deeply confusing and emotionally exhausting, often leaving victims in a cycle of denial, guilt, and over-explaining. But behind the false accusations lies a calculated strategy to control, distract, and destabilise.

Learn how projection protects the narcissist’s false self, shifts blame, and keeps you in a constant state of defence. We unpack how this tactic ties into narcissistic supply, gaslighting, and the broader cycle of emotional abuse.

If you’ve ever questioned yourself after being unfairly accused, this episode will help you understand the deeper motives behind the narcissist’s behaviour — and why it was never about you.
