This is why the grand illusion always unravels. The new supply eventually wakes up to the truth: they are a prop in a play that was never written for them. They were never loved for who they are; they were used to resurrect an image that had already been destroyed. And when that realization comes, the rage of the narcissist flares. The blame begins. The criticism, the gaslighting, the punishmentâit’s the same cycle played again on a different stage.
But don’t miss this truth: the fury of a narcissist is nothing more than a reflection of their own failure. They couldn’t hold on to you. They can’t replicate you. They’re trapped in a cage of their own making, doomed to repeat the same patterns because they’re incapable of genuine connection. It’s a wound that never heals because it was never meant to be healed with lies.
And for you, here’s a word of hope: stay rooted in who you are. Their chaos is not your responsibility. Their drama is not your stage. You are not replaceable. You are not a role in their next act. You are a masterpiece, hand-carved with qualities that can’t be stolen, can’t be cloned, can’t be erased. The very attempt to replace you is proof of your irreplaceable value.
So lift your head and keep walking forward. The garden they poisoned in your past will bloom again in your present, watered by your healing and your truth. And as for them, let them wrestle with the emptiness they created. You’re free. You’re whole. And you were never common.
