Number 3: Focus on your interests that don’t involve the narcissist.
The third thing you can do to start distancing yourself from the Narcissist is to start a hobby that doesn’t involve the Narcissist. It can even be something that the Narcissist has no interest in, but something you have always wanted to do. Getting deep into a new hobby can allow you some relief. It gives you time away from the Narcissist.
It’s time to do something that you would enjoy. And depending on the hobby, it can open doors to new relationships, newfound confidence, and boost your self-esteem. And it just puts you in a better place mentally. You are giving yourself a taste of life without the Narcissist being involved. And of course, the less the Narcissist knows about your new hobby, the better. You don’t want their grubby hands touching any new ventures that you are working on.
So these are my recommendations as to what you can do to start distancing yourself while preparing to end a Narcissistic Relationship. You definitely should not keep things the sam,e as you will only be making yourself more vulnerable to the Narcissist’s manipulation and providing them with more ammunition to hurt you. You need to start creating a new life for yourself away from the Narcissist, and you can start doing it right away so that when you go Zero Contact, or start ignoring them or grey rocking them, you already would have some new habits and routines in place and even new relationships that the Narcissist is not a part of.
