They have no idea what love is, and this in essence rendered our "love," a symbol without substance.

Now that I am healing and fighting my way back to "me," I understand that she's not just a narcissist, but too, she's a Succubus. A Succubus whose wicked gift to me is - she will always remind me of how close I came to danger.
