To the chosen ones, the empaths, to every soul radiating genuine light: they know. They are acutely aware of the magnitude of their error; they understand the profound downgrade they have inflicted upon themselves. They recognize the new supply as a pale imitation of your brilliance, yet they are compelled to maintain the charade, to uphold the illusion of blissful contentment. They must convince you that they have erased you from their memory. This is how they preserve their control—by fostering the belief that you are forgotten. They perpetuate your pain; they impede your healing, your ascent, your liberation. They fuel your self-doubt and erode your self-esteem. This is their calculated objective.
While some will eventually succumb to the urge to hoover and attempt a desperate return, many will resist. They understand that such an action would grant you undeniable validation—a confirmation of their colossal blunder. They recognize the inherent risk of a direct hoover rejection. They’ve left a trail of devastation: shattered relationships and fractured families. The idea of simply picking up where they left off is ludicrous. They are trapped, forced to maintain this elaborate facade. They must project an image of indifference, of blissful oblivion. They must make you believe you are forgotten.
This is why they perpetuate the illusion of their best life. They cannot, and they will not, reveal the truth. You must grasp this fundamental principle: you know them. You know their capacity for deceit. You know they are liars, phonies. Once you’ve witnessed their true nature, once you’ve exposed their deviance and dishonesty, their character is irrevocably revealed. From that moment forward, a chasm must exist between you. You can take nothing they say seriously.
This principle extends beyond romantic relationships. In the workplace, for instance, integrity and honesty are paramount, regardless of hierarchical position. Genuine individuals are essential, yet these environments are also infiltrated by narcissists lurking in every corner. Cultivate this knowing, this unwavering certainty. They are acutely aware of their colossal error; they recognize the magnitude of their loss. This understanding intertwines with your own burgeoning self-worth—a simultaneous awakening. As you embrace your value, you gain deeper insight into their predicament and into the reasons they cannot and will not reach out.
