Narcissist

I hate putting my relationship problems online. But has anyone ever dated a narcissist? I’m 28, he’s 40. This guy I’ve been dating for 4 YEARS is a complete narcissist. He can never be wrong, he can never be told what to do, he’s controlling, and just unrealistic and lot of times. I want children, he doesn’t want more. I think he has mommy issues because his mom used to abuse him when he was younger. And he has women issues because of his past. It sucks because he wasn’t like this when I met him. After the 2nd year, it’s been hell. But I love him and I’m trying to be patient and work through this with him. I know it’s my choice that I’m dealing with this, I’m not blaming anyone. And I’m sure I would be ok if I left, it’s just hard. Me and his children have developed a bond that I really don’t want to break. Sometimes I wish I never met this man 😞
