You don't have to be defensive. You don't have to be constantly on the attack. You don't have to be angry all the time. When you know, and hear that you're fine and that you're okay and that you have a voice that's worth hearing and you have words and experiences that are worth sharing, and it doesn't matter what he or she, the narcissist, does on the other side of it, because we can predict kind of how they're going to respond. But when you say it with a certain steadiness and sturdiness, there is nothing that is more, that gets them more unraveled than that that because you're not dancing anymore. You are sturdy and steady on your platform of health, a healthy adult.
