Does a narcissist ever get their comeuppance/karma for the vile things they've done? Such as cheating, smear campaign, etc.

Boy, could I write a book on the ways and how much I wish they did. Reading through these stories, I find myself amongst my brethren. It seems we all have a person in our lives who just fixated on us. Perhaps we should be flattered that our supply was just “so, damn, good”. But I don't feel like that at all. My ex narc is using our 6-year-old to torment me now, and he is so manipulative that he has our son lie to me so I can't protect him when he hurts him.

I strongly recommend reading these articles on Quora:

10 Toxic Relationship Behaviours to Watch Out For

I’m wondering about attachment and transference with the therapist and the idea of escape and fantasy? How much do you think your strong feelings, constant thoughts, desires to be with your therapist are a way to escape from your present life? I wonder if the transference serves another purpose than to show us our wounds and/or past experiences, but is a present coping strategy for managing what we don’t want to face (even if unconsciously) in the present—-current relationships, life circumstances, etc. Can anyone relate to this concept of escape in relation to their therapy relationship? How does this play out for you?

Being away from him has at least given me room to observe and call him out though this does no good as he is a pathological liar. He can't keep a girlfriend or any friend for that matter. Meanwhile, I am still trying to heal while in this war. It seems every time I think it's settling he throws more dirt and dust at me to keep me clouded. I think I am getting better. The divorce is final. I've moved on into a new relationship, but I could tell some stories, my lovies. To all who can relate to my pain and the pain of others described on this thread, you're not alone in this. Even when it feels like it. People will eventually see the narc for what they are and you will be redeemed.
