A true narcissist will do that, these are very evil people

From my experience and interactions with narcissistic individuals, one of the most painful tactics they employ is weaponizing the things you confide in them. When you share personal or intimate secrets believing the relationship is safe, a true narcissist often keeps a mental note of these vulnerabilities. They later use this information not just to manipulate situations in their favor but deliberately to hurt and control you. This betrayal of trust is a hallmark of their toxic and manipulative nature. Unlike typical misunderstandings between people, narcissistic abuse involves intentional emotional harm. The damage goes beyond hurt feelings; it attacks your sense of self and safety in the relationship. I have seen how this plays out in many scenarios, from friendships to romantic relationships. The narcissist will spin your secrets into weapons during arguments or use them to isolate you from others. They might also share your private details with others to damage your reputation or gain sympathy, making you doubt your own experiences and feelings. Understanding this dynamic is key to protecting yourself. If you notice that someone in your life consistently uses your vulnerable information against you, it’s a significant red flag that they may be a narcissist. Setting firm boundaries and seeking support can help you regain control and heal. Remember, the inherent cruelty of a true narcissist lies in this calculated harm they cause. Recognizing these signs and learning how to respond can empower you to avoid further abuse and maintain your emotional well-being.
