Ready for a LAUGH?!

this is for all the newbies and the ones still struggling with the loss of the NPD man. It WILL get better. I am over 2 years out so have a different perspective now, but I was thinking this morning how many things i did that were so absurd to keep the peace the ex narc, like one morning, I finished showering and washing my hair and he use to complain and even threaten me with not coming over anymore, if i did not pick up every single strand of my hair from the tub. I am a slight shedder of hair and said to myself i will bring a chair and put it out of the bathroom and dry my hair so hair will not go into the tub while drying it. Anyway he comes out of the bedroom,,over to see me sitting on a chair drying my hair outside the bathroom and bellows, what are you doing and I said drying my hair outside the bathroom so you will not bitch at me about the hair. He yelled at me to get back in to the bathroom and meekly I went.SO STUPID the things I put up with, what about you??

Ha! Sounds just like mine...

Ha! Sounds just like mine... he would get angry if my hair was on the floor after i blow dried my hair. Like somebody else said, he probably wanted the hair gone so his other woman didn't see it. I would use my own shampoo and conditioner...after i left he'd take it out of the shower and put it in the cupboard. If i left bobby pins he'd collect them and constantly complain about finding them around his house. So obvious what was going on.

This is so crazy OWML! After

This is so crazy OWML! After reading all the comments I can only say I recognized SEVERAL of my exN's criticisms of me. And the sleeping for 10+ hours - mine would stay in bed all day sometimes, then need a nap in the eve. I thought that was soooo weird. Even if we had plans he would often stay in bed and tell me just to go without him. If I didn't go he'd get angry or say I was too needy, too dependent on him, that I should do what I wanted. Geez, after waiting around for HIM to make up his mind and get out of bed, sometimes I was just too exhausted to care about doing anything any more and other times I'd say fu&k you and just go. Neither choice pleased him... what a screw ball nut bar narc!

Journey on...

Mine was just a whiny little

Mine was just a whiny little bitch. He would whine like a two-year-old even as he bullied me. And it's amazing the lengths he would go to demonize me. One time he called me up to tell me that I had given his little boy nightmares -- from 5,000 miles away! Yes, that's me, the Angel of Darkness, hovering over your children's beds at night, giving them scaaary dreams, mwahaha. Give me a frickin' break.

mine was very unhappy that my hair shed too!

All over his house! I have very thick hair so I shed a lot of hair - no one has ever complained about me shedding hair before!! At first I thought is was because he is a neat person and bald so can't relate! Now I think it was because he was cheating on me and did not want my hair everywhere! He was very grumpy in the morning and still did not want to wake up even by 10 am, so I went into a freezing bathroom to start returning business calls by 9:00 so I would not wake him. He was very irritated that me and the dog were ready to start the day by 9 and made the dog go from about midnight to 11 am without letting him out to pee... We went to sleep by 1am and he still could not rise by 10 am - I think its weird to sleep for 10 hours a night and I personally cannot lay around for that long....also we had been laying around from 8 or 9 pm the night before - 12 hours down is enough!!! I was always trying to not piss him off for existing...He also would rub in my face that I had to get up for work and he didn't (but he was broke with a house in disrepair - fancy retirement)

also said I snored!

No one I lived with ever said that! he did not like it when I had respiratory problems either... Everything annoyed him and it was like I was disturbing his private castle even though he always wanted me there...I don't know why he liked having me there so much when he acted like he hated me, except in bed.

What a jerk! These narcs are

What a jerk! These narcs are true pieces of crap. Xnh didn't like the way I coughed. Not that I actually had any vote in the matter. It's not like I could walk into a store and say, "My husband doesn't like my cough, so I need to buy a new one that HE thinks is acceptable. Are the best ones on aisle 5 or aisle 8?". lol. Xnh started picking at me every time I coughed, and he tried to tell me that I was coughing on purpose to just to annoy him. What an over inflated sense of self-importance! No, I was actually coughing because, well...I NEEDED TO COUGH. He told me that all I really needed to do was "retrain myself to cough differently"... according to HIS specifications, of course. I agree with you. I boggles my mind to think about the stupid things that I tolerated out of xnh. I actually walked on eggshells around the turd merely about how I coughed. It was absolutely ridiculous. Never again! :)

Don't give me ideas!

The ex-Psych prof down in New Mexico would cruelly mock my "idiotic smile" (an adulterous husband in "Anna Karenina" is described as having one,the ex-P worships Tolstoy) and my "cackling." I got back on the latter... he'd accuse me of being a witch, and I'd say "isn't that a hobby in your home state of Massachusetts, accusing people of witchcraft for fun?" He'd call my laugh "cackling." Not that I'd be tempted to call the 505 and leave some anonymous laughing as a voice message.... ;) My mother tends to be critical as well. She'd accuse me of not being "grown up" because I don't like wearing tights. For me, they're uncomfortable in the crotch region. She'll make cracks about Rachael Ray's weight. Once, I had showered, and I had dandruff... she told me that I looked like a homeless person. Right after my grandmother died this past December, she snapped at me over the phone "Why aren't you ambitious?" My grandmother had just died from a stroke. I wasn't interested in talking about my career at the time. I had suffered a loss... and my lack of ambition was suddenly a big deal(???)

Oh have a good one

I smoke. I honestly am a clean smoker. No one who comes to my house can tell I smoke. I always have clean ashtrays. But one time he complained about my dirty ashtrays around the house so I started cleaning them out after every cig I had. With furniture polish! And yet he would put his nasty spit bottles from chewing on my couch and tables and kitchen counter!!! I called him on it but he kept doing it! Until every time I found it there I would throw it out!!!!!! Asshole!

Me too Faith

I am too. I consider myself a courteous smoker and I take good care of my oral hygiene. xN didn't even know I smoked in the house. Most people that know me have no idea and people that visit my home can't believe someone smokes inside. When xN came over I always hid the ashtray. I guess I was afraid it was just one more thing she would berate me for or use as an excuse to abandon me and didn't want the grief. She said she wasn't a smoker but was always asking me for a cigarette. She once asked me to come over at 1 o'clock in the morning so she could have a smoke. I saw her smoke on numerous occasions but if you want to date her on match.com and you are a smoker "NO WAY"

The way I chewed hard food

The way I chewed hard food like almonds. He hated it. He said it sounded like my head was hollow. I tried many things to 'chew' food differently. It didn't matter if my mouth was closed, or if I was slowly chewing. Later I asked friends about it and they never noticed anything weird about my chewing! The way I walked. He said I walked 'heavy'. So I worked on that, too. No one else knows what I mean when I mention it. They are damn f-ing critical weirdos.

Ugh!

Mine asked several times why I walked "like a football player" Wtf? I'm 5'3 and weigh 110-115. I have a thin bone structure with narrow shoulders, a (freakishly) long neck, and have taken dance classes since I was a small child. How does a football player walk anyway? And how does the gait of a linebacker resemble the way I move IN ANY WAY?! I asked several friends if they thought I had the walk of a football player and they looked at me like I had three heads. According to the people I polled, I look very much like a ballerina when I move. I think this whole "walk like a football player" bullshit was just another attempt to gaslight me.

nothing is more lovely

than a woman with a long neck! It is one of those feminine things that makes us distinctly different from men. With a background as a dancer, I highly doubt you walk like a FB player...

Alcoholic

Mine too, an alcoholic who bragged about being able to handle the hard liquor. He was a functional alcoholic which was confusing...he drank everynight but, his job never suffered and his liver didn't get sick. He was a maintenance drinker, not a progressive drinker.
