In this episode, I continue our deep and honest conversation about narcissism by exploring what really happens when a narcissistic relationship ends. These endings are not typical breakups. They are often disorienting, painful, and deeply destabilizing because they involve power, control, trauma bonds, and identity loss. I walk through the patterns I see again and again in my work with clients, as well as my own lived experience, to help you understand why these relationships unravel the way they do.

I talk about why narcissistic relationships often end when the healthier partner begins to heal, set boundaries, and reclaim their voice. I explain why narcissists leave, how they rewrite history, why they appear to move on so quickly, and why their exit feels like abandonment even when they were the ones causing harm. I also address the profound emotional, nervous system, relational, financial, and spiritual costs of both staying and leaving.

Most importantly, I want you to know this: if you are questioning yourself, your worth, or your sanity, you are not broken. Healing is possible, and clarity does come. If any part of this episode resonates with you, I invite you to reach out for support. You do not have to walk this path alone. jenny@jaiello.com.
