How does a narcissist or psychopath act when their ex gets a new spouse?

Answer:
Usually rather contemptuously, if at all. I believe they hardly mind , because their emotions are shallow anyway. You may have wanted to believe you were loved, but someone truly psychopathic or with severe NPD may be able to sometimes emulate loving feelings but they are just not there. They will usually have moved on to someone else 'better' anyway! I know that there are a very few cases of these distorted thinkers stalking their ex, because they are so astonished and furious at being dumped they can't accept it - but generally it's probably safe to consign them to the dustbin of history, as they have you.
