Does someone have to fit into each criteria to be called a narcissist?

My husband even before becoming my husband was a little full of himself. always boasting about where he studied. soemtimes like bragging sometimes felt like competing against me. in fights he'd say I manage 400employees and you're trying to educate me on how to talk?

He loved bomb me so hard. i was so excited and attracted to his personality. But soon things turned dark. We had to meet everyday or he'd go "I come from my work every afternoon to meet u and u don't wanna meet me today? in weekends if I said I wanna rest this weekend because I also have a hectic work schedule, he'd say, u don't wanna meet me on a day that we're both free? he'd be so angry and fight if things didn't to his way.

If I didn't appreciate his birthday surprise as he wanted to, if I didn't post on fb enough, if I didn't comment on his posts he'd say I didn't like it. that I liked my ex's posts more. after my birthday he complained I didn't seem happy enough.

He's sure I'm cheating. he always video calls me at work to check. checks phone when I'm home. comments on my dress or hair or lipstick if I'm wearing a nice one. if I don't change he'd be sure I'm cheating if I cried and changed he'd say"it's simple just don't wear that dress, what's the harm, you're making a scene for no reason"

I've heard narcissists cheat always. And they discard you after the break up. I broke up with him. And he's begging me back crying and saying he'd doing redemption. So he's not a narcissist?

He told me men in his family neverhit women and I thought so amazing and great that is! but I never imagined men in his family would always say I'll smash your face and head if they get angry at their wives. so not hitting is fine? The fact that he raises his hand in a hitting gesture is okay? He always does it. Makes it in a punch and says he'll break my skull.
