Some narcissists have a habit of disappearing. Then when the dust settles and alls calm, reappear out the blue.

You may go months without hearing a peep. Then all of a sudden, they’re all over you. Phoning, messaging, and wanting to meet up.

Why does a narcissist suddenly get back in contact? Why now?

Here’s the main reasons why narcissists return…

Low In Supply

Narcissists NEED narcissistic supply. This is attention, adoration, and favours. If these run low, they hit crisis mode.

The narcissist may have enjoyed an abundance of supply from other sources. So they had no need for you. But as soon as supplies run dry, they make their glorious return.

They may say they miss you. But the truth is they need you.

And because narcissists need supply so badly, they can be pushy and demanding. And expect you to drop everything to welcome them back with open arms. Even if you’ve moved on and filled your life with things to do, and other people.

Fallen Out With Someone

The narcissist may have had a good primary source of supply. But now they’ve fallen out with them.

That person may have provided everything the narcissist needed. So they were content, and stayed out your way. But now they’ve fallen out with them, they need you.

Narcissists frequently fall out with people due to their selfish ways. And often have love-hate relationships where they’re friends one minute, enemies the next.

The narcissist may return when things turn sour in other relationships. Then disappear when they’ve made up. Which is why some perpetually disappear then reappear.

They Want Something

If you have something the narcissist wants, then they may make a swift return. It could be that their needs have changed. For example they may have money issues. Or your circumstances have changed, such as you’ve received a large inheritance.

Most narcissists aren’t shy about suddenly wanting to be in your life when they want something. And equally, they’re not shy of disappearing again, once you’ve served your purpose.

They’re Devaluing Someone

Narcissists often grow bored with their supplies. And may devalue them, just to show them who’s boss.

Narcissists are never truly happy. And if someone’s a good supply, they get complacent. And treat them progressively worse over time.

The narcissist may devalue someone in many ways. Name calling, ignoring their calls, cheating, etc. Another way is by suddenly withdrawing attention.

But the narcissist still needs supply. So they need someone to provide it. And they often return to previous supplies, as they’re easier to infiltrate than strangers.

The narcissist may also triangulate you and the person they’re devaluing. And make them jealous by letting them know they’re spending time with you. Using you to get at them.

Been Exposed

The narcissists may have upset the wrong person. Or committed a shameful act. And have been exposed for who they really are.

Narcissists HATE being exposed. Because it interferes with their pursuit of supply. A damaged reputation makes people wary. And less likely to spend time with them.

Rather live with a barren supply, the narcissist may flee. Usually to the easiest source of supply. And that’s often someone from their past. Because they can’t afford the time it takes to build new friendships. They need attention – now.

Expect A Hero’s Welcome

Sometimes narcissists return because they want a hero’s welcome. If they’ve been away a while, they figure everybody must be missing their enigmatic presence. So here they are – in the flesh baby!

Most narcissists enjoy the spotlight. And returning to old haunting grounds usually gets tongues wagging. And gives the narcissist the attention they crave. Even if some of it is negative.

The narcissist may snap their fingers, demanding attention. Using guilt tricks such as “You’re too busy? You haven’t got time for an old friend?” And gather a large party to celebrate their triumphant return. Bliss.

They Figure You’re Weaker

The narcissist may have left you alone if you developed stronger boundaries. And they probably found someone easier to exploit. But now they sense things are different.

They may have found out through the grapevine that you’ve split with your partner. Or had some other sobering life experience.

The narcissist may figure you’re in a weaker frame of mind. And with that comes weaker boundaries. So they return to see what they can plunder.

If they discover your boundaries are strong, they will probably retreat as quickly as they returned. But if they smell blood, they’ll stick around. Narcissists like to test the waters.

Hope You’ve Forgiven Them

Narcissists know that time is a great healer. And if they wronged you in the past, they might lie low, and wait it out. Not because they feel bad for you, but because they know they can’t use you.

When they return, they hope you’ve forgotten their transgressions, or at least calmed down. And they can recommence taking supply from you. Again, they’re likely to test the waters.

Final Thoughts

Narcissists see people as resources to exploit. And need people far more than they admit. Disappearing and returning helps them get their needs met from various sources. And when they’ve used one source up, they return to another, hoping their supply has been replenished.

Narcissists return for their benefit, not yours. They don’t care how you’re doing. Or how their absence has affected you. They only care about what they can take from you. But they don’t tell you this.

They tell you how much they missed you, and what a special bond you share. Anything to sink their claws back into you. And take the supply they desperately need. That’s why narcissists return.
