Does a Narcissist Still Follow Your Actions Even if He Has a New Supply?

Do narcissists continue to monitor or follow your actions even after they have a new partner? Yes, they may still do so. This behavior stems from their strong need for control and validation, making them keep tabs on former partners or significant others.

Why Do Narcissists Monitor You?

Narcissists may monitor you due to several reasons:

Curiosity: They want to know how you’re doing when they’re not in your life. Jejalousy: Fearing that your new relationship might lead to your happiness without them. Desire for Superiority: They want to maintain a sense of superiority by keeping an eye on you.

How Narcissists Monitor You

This monitoring can manifest in various ways:

Social Media: They might check your profiles to see your status. Mutual Acquaintances: Friends or mutual contacts might inform them about your activities. Other Means: They could phone you and then hang up just to re-assert their presence.

Why Narcissists Need to Check on You

Even after moving on to a new relationship, they might need to see:

If you are miserable: They might be curious about your emotional state. If you are with another person: They might want to know if you are choosing someone else. Whether you can hold yourself together or if you are a mess: They might be testing your emotional resilience.

What If the New Relationship Doesn’t Work Out?

There’s a possibility that they might see the new relationship as a weak point and attempt to re-engage with you. They may want to see if you are still vulnerable and consider taking you back.

Why Do They Still Have You in Their Thoughts?

Narcissists believe you belong to them and will always need them. If they see you’re happy without them, they might swoop in to try and re-connect. As they manipulate you into believing in them again, they will then drop you and crush you more deeply each time. This cycle will repeat until you learn to break free.

How to Free Yourself from a Narcissist

Blocking and unfollowing your ex-narcissist on all social media and communication platforms is crucial. Take the step to remove them from your life before they can continue to cause harm. Never engage with them or their "flying monkeys" and implement total no contact to truly get free.

By blocking them and all their acquaintances on social media, phone, and other communication channels, you can walk away while you still have the strength. Accept the lesson for what it is, learn your worth, and know your value isn’t based on anyone else's view of you.

Live your best life and be your most amazing self!
