I think it’s really painful to realise that they demanded all the care and attention from you, that they were never willing to give back.

They expected support when they were struggling, upset, and would create drama to be sure that everyone was rallying round about them.

But when it was your turn, they were nowhere to be found.

Realising your relationship with your sibling has been unhealthy all along is hard.
Sometimes the hardest part isn’t losing the relationship you should have had. It’s realising how much of your life, your choices, and your view of yourself and others were being shaped by someone else’s opinion.

That’s a different kind of grief altogether…

The reason you can’t understand their behaviour is because you wouldn’t behave that way yourself.

Read that again.

Narcissistic people operate through secrecy and compartmentalisation.

You’ll rarely, if ever - see the full picture because different relationships are used to meet different emotional or social needs.

One person may be used for validation.
Another for sympathy.
Another for status.
Another for control.

Many people around them end up being manipulated or emotionally exploited.

That’s why different people often experience completely different versions of the same person.

The persona shifts depending on what they want from the individual in front of them.

Over time, this creates relationships built more on usefulness than genuine connection.

Which means everyone is being exploited for what they can get from them.

And yes… I do mean everyone.

A lot of genuinely decent people have wrestled with dark thoughts about the person that deeply hurt them. If you have - You’re probably more normal than you think. I know I have!

Feeling anger, resentment or even wanting people to feel the pain they caused you does not automatically make you a bad person.

The difference between the hurt and the harmful is that one chooses to become the darkness, while the other chooses not to.

“It takes two” is not always true.

Sometimes one person is genuinely trying to make things work while the other person twists reality, avoids accountability, withholds care, and slowly wears them down emotionally.

Calling that “it takes two” often just protects the person causing the harm.

Sometimes it’s not just the person who hurt you.

It’s the people around it who said nothing, did nothing and watched it happen…

those are the ones that can leave the deepest scars.

Some words never leave people. Especially when they were meant to hurt…

Sometimes, the moment that changes your life is somebody else’s face and reaction when you finally tell them what’s been happening.

19/05/2026

People assume someone quietly stepping back is cold, dramatic, controlling, punishing, or weak…

When actually a lot of the time they’re devastated.

They’ve just reached the point where they can no longer keep fighting for something that was never going to change.
