You want to believe that a Hijackal--a toxic, difficult, perhaps narcissistic person--loves you. You SO want to believe it. But it's time for a reality check.
Narcissistic folks don't have much love to give and here are 16 ways to recognize that they aren't giving it to you. An eye-opener!
People who love you listen to you. They want to listen to you. And, you want to listen to them. You're interested in each other. Not so with a #Hijackal. The Hijackal is interested in themselves and want you to be interested in them, too. Sure, in the beginning, it's different. That's how they hook you as I spoke about in the last episode, How Hijackals Hook You Into Toxic Relationships.
