6. Walking Away Without Explanation
Empaths are recognizing that they owe narcissists nothing—not an explanation, not a defense, and certainly not their energy. By walking away silently and resolutely, they shatter the narcissist’s illusion of control. This decisive action leaves the narcissist powerless and unable to manipulate their way back into dominance.
7. Thriving Publicly
Finally, empaths are thriving publicly. Narcissists often seek to diminish their targets’ self-esteem and success. However, by pursuing personal growth, building fulfilling relationships, and celebrating achievements, empaths demonstrate resilience and self-worth. This not only frustrates narcissists but also inspires other survivors to rise above their circumstances.
