“If I’m too much for you, then you are not my person. What I want is not what you have to offer. What you’re giving me is simply not enough.”
Imagine the impact of telling a narcissist they are not enough for you. This statement turns their tactics on them, dismantling their narrative that you’re “too demanding” or “oversensitive.”
They might say:
- “You’re exaggerating.”
- “Nobody else is as difficult as you.”
- “You’re making my life miserable.”
When you realize that their behavior is the problem, you reclaim your power. By declaring, “You’re not my person,” you’re asserting your worth and calling out their inability to reciprocate your efforts.
This phrase highlights:
- Your value: You recognize your worth and refuse to let their projected shame define you.
- Their shortcomings: They fail to contribute to the relationship, making you shoulder all responsibilities.
It’s not about being “too much.” It’s about acknowledging that they’re not willing to meet even the bare minimum.
