You are a rebel in the best sense. You dare to question what others normalize. In narcissistic family dynamics, for example, everyone is expected to accept toxic behaviors as “just the way things are.” But you refuse to conform.
You ask difficult questions:
- Why are you manipulative?
- Why do you lie?
- Where is your empathy?
These questions shake the foundation of the narcissistic system, which thrives on unquestioning compliance. Your refusal to accept their authority irritates them deeply.
For instance, if you are married to a narcissistic partner enmeshed with their toxic family, your demand for boundaries and fairness will provoke their rage. They expect you to remain silent, to suppress your voice, and to comply—but that’s not who you are.
Your ability to challenge their control and demand justice makes you a target. They fear your capability to expose their flaws and disrupt their carefully constructed facade.
