Prepare to Be Tortured

The Price You Will Pay for Dating a Narcissist

By: A B Jamieson

Narrated by: Anna Butterworth

Length: 6 hrs and 29 mins

Publisher's summary

We are all familiar with the term narcissism and the story of how some Greek god or another looked into a pool of water only to fall in love with himself. But what does it actually mean to date one of the same said species?

This easy-to-understand book explains the standard process from start to finish - through being completely bowled over and convinced that one has found their true soul mate to the games and tests narcissists play once the partner has been successfully seduced. This is a form of narcissistic handbook, essential to keep close at hand when our head is saying one thing but our heart is saying another.

Spot on! but too much profanity for me!

Considering that I've just left a narcissistic marriage, it was as though I was listening to a reading from my journal. I thought it was quite informative, but I could do with out the explenatives.

Info is outstanding - narrator is abysmal

Too bad the book was ruined by the narrator - I had to stop and take breaks from her grating, childish voice. Publisher needs to spend the money and re-record.

I would recommend only the written book - avoid this amateurish performance.

Get it!!

Loved it, I’ve been with a narcissist for almost 5 years. This book was like my entire relationship summed up in one. I have been struggling to decide, stay or go, and this…. WOW. Cleared the air!!!

Have you

the only thing that is it possible to be a little more than a little

A must read for anyone wanting to get out of a Narcissistic relationship of any kind

A handbook to help you recognise, realise and get the hell out of any narcissistic relationship of any kind. Must read/listened to. The narration by Anna Butterworth is an easy and comfortable one. Thank you A B Jamieson for this book. 👍🏼

Review

Excellent book. A little shock at the language but they call it like they say it. True to form for narcissist.

Best narcissist book

I loved the book as I could relate hand in hand with the characters and writer’s experience. I am now recovered from narcissistic trauma. Although I know it’s not over since he will be released from jail soon. I share a child with him and he always based his attention on me than our child or if I stop talking to him he stops calling for the child. My story is long. But this gave me a boost of confidence that I can handle what’s to come my way. Without running and moving to different states. I really wish they taught about predictors like this in school I had no clue about ppl like that when I met mine. Thank you!

Completely my life for the past 4 years.

Couldn't stop listening. At first it was really rough to listen to. Quite emotional, I felt like I was reliving the whole relationship, how could it be so amazing in the beginning? How could I have been so dumb. Tears. At the end of this book I became alot more knowledgeable, I was able to learn about the red flags. And most importantly, I learned about myself. That I'm still the woman with strength to move on. ❤️

Not of my liking but useful, kinda.

I just felt it was too dramatic and more like reading a dialogue of a woman going through a relationship, it wasn’t a novel yet it wasn’t a handbook on the subject which was kind of confusing. Easy to digest tho if you’re looking for something simple.

good at explaining multiple narcissistic scenarios

without being too complex or academically convoluted; this title gives a wide range of narcissistic scenarios and explanations intertwined w a non fictional story about a male narc and friend of the author's relationship.
