Sensing others' wounded Inner child, even narcissists

Below is my response to someone's post in one of the fb groups I belong to. Background: the poster was in a relationship with a narcissist and she could sense this person's inner child and was trying to heal him but found she was becoming very drained, energetically. The relationship ended and she still felt the pull of his inner child.

I feel like empaths and narcissists are 2 sides of the same coin and that's why there's this almost magnetic attraction between the two and its very difficult to separate bc of that magnetic pull.

I hope you're taking care of yourself while you process the grief and the separation. And I hope you're able to find the support from others while you navigate thru this - and you will get thru this! 💗

As an empath and energy healer, I do sense, as some others have said, that your inner child is calling out to you. As empaths we are able to energetically look and reach out into the world, into other ppl and we may do this automatically without realizing that we're doing it. That whole saying of "what you are seeking, is seeking you" applies to what you are going thru. Your ability to feel into his inner child is also a call from your inner child trying to get your attention. During this time, it'd be a really good idea for you to connect with your inner child and find out what she wants and/or needs. Doing inner child work is very powerful and will definitely change your inner and outer worlds. 🙏💗,
