Why

After knowing someone for 2 years and tolerating strong narcissistic traits, I decided to walk away. For 9 months I ignored everything until I finally gave in.

They started off being apologetic, said they missed me. Gave positive life updates about their life. This lasted for about a month or so. Then they called me at an inconvenient time. I still answered but eventually I told them I’d have to call them back. I called back a few hours later. No answer and no call back.

6 days later they call me saying they’re ready to settle down and they finally figured out why it never worked between us - communication styles. She described me as avoidant and her straightforward. I said if I come off as avoidant it’s because I don’t feel safe. I’ve expressed that to you. She said thanks for telling me, I understand. We chatted about some random stuff and then said goodbye.

What on Earth?

Has anyone experienced anything like this?
