Family scapegoats with years of healing: what events or thoughts precipitated your full acceptance of your family's narcissistic dynamic? Can you share your inner thoughts as you reached it? How do we know when we have reached full acceptance?

You will never be enough no matter what you do. At best, they will make backhanded compliments or just ignore you.

You’ll know you've reached full acceptance when you receive a hoover and send it straight to spam/trash without an emotional reaction, or a second thought about it.

The most important things to realize:

How do people move on so quickly? I’m still sprung over someone I was dating and he found someone else so fast. I feel hurt because I’m still head over heels over him while he’s out enjoying his life with someone new

The family's “in group” do not have intimate relationships. They are transactional and look down on each other. In other words, you aren't missing anything.

They don't love you.

Your life is better in every single way without them.

In that sense, acceptance is strongly related to building awareness.

You don't owe them anything.

Recognizing the darkness in yourself allows you to see it very clearly in others. A narcissist is consumed with darkness. That is: deceit, sadism, and ego.

Why do liberals think it is okay to steal votes while the rest of us obey the law(s)?

When you recognize your own darkness, you will see it in them, and see them for who they actually are as people. Then it will become easy to drop them from your life.

They enjoy hurting you.
