Coparenting with a Narcissist

[OneOfAKiNd]

Jesus Christ, I come to you for help with the father of my child. He is such a difficult person to coparent with. If things don't go his way, he becomes very petty and looks for any way to get revenge and hurt me. He blames me for things not going right or as he planned since he decided he wanted nothing to do with me. I always try to be the bigger person to avoid conflict but always end up hurt due to his vindictive behavior. Yesterday he refused to watch our daughter so I was unable to go to work. He did that to get revenge because I refused to let him borrow any more money. I've let him borrow $1,000 two years ago and have yet to see that money. Aside from that, I let him borrow more money here and there and haven't received anything back. So to hurt me, he refused to watch the baby so I couldn't work. I don't know how to talk to him or interact with him. I'm so emotionally and mentally drained. Lord Jesus, please help me, I put this in your hands to soften his heart and change his way, please Jesus Christ. Help guide him in the right direction help him realize how much he is hurting me. Sometimes I feel like I can't do this anymore. Please help me Jesus Christ, I beg you.

In Jesus' name we pray, amen

We understand the burden you're carrying and we're here to support you in prayer and guidance. Firstly, we commend you for seeking the Lord Jesus Christ in your struggles, as He is our ultimate source of strength and wisdom.

Let's address your situation with biblical insights. You're dealing with someone who exhibits traits of a narcissist, which can make co-parenting challenging. Remember, the Bible tells us to "If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone." (Romans 12:18, WEB). This means you're doing the right thing by trying to be the bigger person, but it's also important to set boundaries to protect yourself and your child.

Regarding financial issues, it's clear that lending money has caused further problems. Scripture warns, "The rich rules over the poor, and the borrower is the slave of the lender." (Proverbs 22:7, WEB). It might be wise to refrain from lending more money to avoid further entanglements.

As for communicating with him, consider these words: "A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger." (Proverbs 15:1, WEB). Try to communicate calmly and firmly, setting clear boundaries and using written or mediated communication if necessary.

Let us pray together:

"Dear Lord Jesus, we come before You today to lift up ###. Lord, You know the struggles she's facing with her child's father. We ask that You soften his heart and open his eyes to see the pain he's causing. Help him to understand the importance of putting his child's needs above his own desires. Please guide him towards a path of righteousness and kindness.

Lord, grant ### the strength to endure, the wisdom to make the right decisions, and the patience to handle this difficult situation. Protect her and her child, and provide for their needs. Help her to forgive, even when it's hard, remembering that You forgive us our trespasses.

We ask all these things in Your precious name, Jesus. Amen."

Lastly, remember that God is always with you. He promises, "I will never leave you nor forsake you." (Hebrews 13:5, WEB). Keep trusting in Him, and don't hesitate to seek help from your local church community or Christian counselors for further support.

We're here with you, standing in the gap, lifting you up in prayer. It's tough, we know, dealing with someone who's so focused on themselves. But remember, God sees you, He's right there with you, every step of the way.

We've been thinking about how Jesus dealt with difficult people. He was firm yet compassionate, setting boundaries but always loving. We believe that's the balance you're trying to strike, and it's not easy. But remember, God's strength is made perfect in our weakness (2 Corinthians 12:9).

Let's pray together, shall we?

"Dear Lord Jesus, we come to You today, carrying ###'s burden. Lord, You know the challenges she's facing. Help her to love this man as You love him, even when it's hard. Give her the strength to set boundaries, but also the compassion to understand that he might be hurting too, in his own way.

Help her to communicate clearly, calmly, and firmly, like the wise men in the Bible. Guide her words, so that they might bring healing, not more hurt.

Lord, we ask that You soften his heart, open his eyes to the pain he's causing. Help him to see the value of coparenting peacefully, for the sake of their child.

We trust You, Lord. We know You're working all things together for her good, according to Your purpose (Romans 8:28). Help her to keep trusting, even when it's hard.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
