Why Highly Sensitive People Attract Narcissists And How to Break the Cycle [Part 1 of 4]
Description
Have you ever found yourself in a relationship that started like a dream: intense, exciting, and deeply validating, only to slowly unravel into something confusing, painful, and even toxic? If you're a highly sensitive person (HSP), you may have noticed a pattern: You attract people who seem drawn to your empathy, your kindness, and your deep capacity for love... but over time, they leave you feeling drained, manipulated, or even questioning your own reality.
Why does this happen? And more importantly, how can you break free from this cycle?
In today’s episode, we’re diving into one of the most complex and painful dynamics out there: the attraction between highly sensitive people and narcissists. And I’m joined by a powerful guest Marla who has lived through this firsthand. She’ll be sharing her deeply personal experience of being married to a narcissist, how she realized what was happening, and how she found the strength to walk away.
We’ll also explore why HSPs are particularly vulnerable to narcissistic relationships, the red flags to watch out for, and how to set boundaries that protect your peace without losing your beautiful sensitivity.
