Vicki posted this on the Women Who Love Too Much Board and gave me permission to post it here. I thought everyone would it enjoy it. I think it sums things up perfectly.
Do Not Date A Narcissistic Man!
If you are dating Mr Narcissistic
A habit, an addiction you need to kick
It is hard; he will never quite let you go
His plaything used to massage his ego
One of many owned by "Narcissistic man"
You will never change him, but you think you can
Sending you mixed messages leaving you confused
This sounds harsh but you are being abused
Comes into your life, then he's gone again
As quickly as April sunshine turns to rain
Leaving a whirlwind of destruction to sort
Self esteem gone, believe it is your fault
Deluded, believes he is a great catch
Lovingly giving, you want that perfect match
Think of all those red flags you choose to ignore
So co dependency you can explore
Secretive, never met even one friend
This is not a relationship to depend
An expert in passion and seduction
Your response is sanity reduction
Self absorbed, no empathy at all
Life with this man will never be a ball
Selfish, concerned with the here and now
This will never prosper, how much you plough
Believe in your self, you deserve much more
An equal partnership that you both adore
Say "Goodbye Mr Narcissistic, out you go"
Stand tall and find someone who helps you grow
