Do narcissists leave their supply?

Narcissists Discard And Move On To New Supply Quickly | Dr. Ramani Explains. The concept of the “discard” phase in a narcissistic relationship, only to be replaced very quickly by a new partner (commonly referred to as “new supply” by survivors of narcissistic abuse) has been an interest of mine for two years.

Does a narcissist ever miss you?

They may feel very sad that they lost someone and they may genuinely miss that person. It’s because in losing that person they lost access to their “narcissistic supply” (of validation, adoration, or sex). So, no. A true narcissist cannot miss you, not as you or I might understand the term.
