PLAYING THE VICTIM

They are the proverbial victim.
In their eyes, that is.
They will spend a lifetime
shouting how they were done wrong,
how you abused them,
how you did this, how you did that.

But did you notice
that everything they claim
that you did to them
is exactly what they did to you?
It's called Projection.
But they will never ever admit
they were wrong about anything,
and will go to the grave
still crying they were the victim.

Narcissists will shout
at the top of their lungs
that they are the poor victim
who was abused and betrayed by you.
They will present supposed "evidence"
that "proves" this theory.

But of course, it's all a lie
because what they think is their truth
is actually your truth.
They just twist the truth to fit their theory.
They play the victim card so well,
they should carry their own piece of chalk!

Author's Note
This is what you need to be careful with these people can not be trusted they will turn against you at any time.
