My friend who was married to a narc who went MLC is relieved to be no longer married to him. Someone posted that they are like vampires. Although she was devastated by the bomb drop she now realises that his pre MLC personality was pretty toxic to be around.
OW may be like the woman who went for a ride on a tiger! If you think about their being joined at the hip - she is needy and he is getting his ego stoked (and stroked). At some point one or other will get bored and want more.
