Moving all my shit out of the house in 3 hours was difficult enough. I'd hope our phone calls and texting would dwindle & I would fade away into history. And they did --after I blocked his number through my phone. Unfortunately, I discovered that he could still leave voicemails.
And, boy, did he!
And I listened to them, but only once (bullshit all sounds the same, after a while, doesn't it?). I analyzed the digital info that came along with it on my smart phone though. I could see what time he called, how long the message was & of course I knew his number, plus the date was there.
I saved them all too, for a time. It turns out, that a narcissist can leave 19 average voicemails in 4 days and you can have 4 other saved messages before your voice mail gets full! And for 9 full days, you can go without any bullshit (lies, half-truths, manipulations, etc.) from your narcissist too!
Try it! You'll like it!
Let your mailbox stay full over the weekend. Answer every call that comes in. If he calls, you won't know because you've blocked his number! Check as often as you'd like to see if he left a message. But know he can't; your voice mail is full!
Be prepared to complete some projects! Make time to secure your house & triple-check that your drapes are closed (I still do this)! Can you take time off from work? You are about to get your head on straight- this is a good time to drop some responsibilities! You need this! Break away, Girl!
