When I take a bus north, I am taking a bus north. When I take a train south, I am taking a train south. When I take a plane east, I am taking a plane east. When I take a ferry west, I am taking a ferry west.
A ‘no’ is a ‘no’. A ‘yes’ is a ‘yes’. A ‘no’ is not a ‘yes’, and a ‘yes’ is not a ‘no’. The moon, when seen from earth, is not purple, green, or blue; it’s white or yellow.
A narcissist who thinks he is me is causing me to lose track of my own life.
A narcissist who is lying is a narcissist who is lying, not a narcissist who is telling the truth.
A jealous person is a jealous person, and not a kind person.
A narcissist who is egotistical is a narcissist who is egotistical; he is not a narcissist who loves himself.
A narcissist who has no direction and only causes war and destruction is causing others to lose direction.

To the singer I used to date: Next time you tell me my younger son is a narcissist and what a bad and flawed human being he is, let me hand you a mirror. You are saying this to abuse me and to abuse him. I have asked you to stop saying so and to never talk to me about him again. He has a right to not have you talk poorly about him behind his back, and I have a right to not have to hear you talk about him. You have no right to say this about a 7-year-old child who is innocent. And no, you are not his family member, you have no right to be in our relationship. Harass somebody else, respect his and my privacy, and leave me alone. He has been through a lot and he is the real victim in here, not you.
