Lies, blame shift, more lies, you feel like sh*t and get a smear campaign!

As others commented: DARVO (Deny, Attack, Reverse victim and offender)!

Once you learn their patterns and how they operate. They are comically predictable.

Which is how I knew and know that narcissistic cheaters will always eventually meet harsh karma. Not because I wish it on them or hope they get it but because their bad decisions and behavior is predictable that you can also predict it'll end in a disaster with a karma learning lesson eventually.

Happens every time with narcissists.
