The Narc Decoder: Ficus on your Husband (A Classic Email from Seth)

by Tina Swithin

The "

Narc Decoder

" began as a way to find light in the darkness. In the beginning of my divorce, Seth's emails would often make me crumble to the ground. As time went on and I got stronger, I began to see right through his attempts to control and intimidate through written communication and the Narc Decoder (patent pending) was born as a way for me to cope with the craziness. Humor is truly the best medicine. A few weeks ago, I sent Seth an email regarding the impending supervised visits and my meeting with minor's counsel. I had been made aware of the

recent police report

documenting Seth's fifth victim since our divorce proceedings began. While this is victim #5, this one was especially troublesome because it occurred during our 3111 custody evaluation.This was Seth's response to my email and apparently. the police report is a "hypothesis:"

Tina-  First off, I don't care about your hypothesis.You're spending child support money to write books no one reads about me.Second, you're infatuated with me and you need to ficus on your new husband not me. So move on.Third you're a narcissist. Your pictures by photographers you hire are all over your little corner of social media and you with your 36 book fans are a pathetic breed. Keep it up with your nonsense while our daughters suffer from your egomania output to get losers to believe it's okay to cheat on a husband. You will never absolve yourself yourself for your lies and selfishness in your heart.  -Seth

And into the "Narc Decoder" it goes....Snap...Crackle...Pop....Decoded!

Tina - First off, I don't care that you have an official police report in hand. I am currently trying to concoct a story that will make this entire incident your fault. Everything is your fault in case you weren't aware. You just sit back and wait to see what kind of story I come up with! I'm sure that you and the girl I was dating were actually in cahoots on this entire thing. Never mind the fact that you are on the west coast and she is on the east coast. I'm positive that this was all a set up and her father was probably the officer who showed up at the hotel to take the report. Now that I think about it, she is probably your third cousin twice removed. YOU set me up and forced the 23 alcoholic beverages that preceded the assault down my throat from 3,000 miles away....and you thought that you were going to get away with this! HA!I am sure that if I keep mentioning child support money, people will believe that I pay you every month. Who cares about that measly $40,812.36 in arrears! Do you know that it eats at me that you've written books that tell the truth about me. I checked your Amazon reviews for the 93rd time today and you had a new review! You are now up to 265 reviews and both books are holding at 5-stars. I HATE that you are successful because it goes against everything I've ever told you! I hate that so many people know the truth about me.Second, I am infatuated with myself. Why aren't you infatuated with me...didn't you hear all of the great things my mom said about me? Why won't you listen, dammit!? By the way, I don't want you to orchid or fern on your new husband. I want you to ficus on him. Wait..I never misspelled anything or made any mistakes prior to meeting YOU. Your white trash upbringing has affected my spelling. I knew it! See what you've done! I wrote "ficus" instead of "focus" and its all your fault. Move on and stop making me make mistakes. (Note from Tina: credit to Laura in Southern California for the ficus humor!)Third, I'm a narcissist. Wait...I think I am actually a sociopath but I know that is a big word for you. By the way, the pictures you use of your coaching website prove that you are a narcissist also. It is very clear that in an effort to save money, you used your wedding photos versus having new photos taken...who was your photographer, by the way? I am in need of some new photos for my dating profiles. I am hoping for the "Fortune 500" look which will go right along with what I am telling women. Did I mention that the people who read your books and blog are right up my alley?...an entire group of kind, loving, empathetic women. Do you have any of their phone numbers? I am actually on the hunt for my next victim and I love people with the qualities that I lack. I would appreciate it greatly if you would STOP educating the masses. You are eating up my dating pool every single day. By the way. I am still telling people that you cheated on me even though we both know that's the furthest thing from the truth. Someone will eventually believe it. Won't they? Will you just say you did because it would sure help my victim story. Please? -Seth
