    Detaching From Your Narcissistic Cheating Ex

    Miglior citazione da Detaching From Your Narcissistic Cheating Ex

    “

    Emotional detachment doesn't mean you have to become cold or indifferent; it's about creating psychological distance even when physical distance isn't possible. You become like a gray rock—boring, predictable, and giving them nothing to feed on emotionally.

    ”
