A Narcissist will make you feel like you are the one that has the problems , they will play a victim when you are. really. the victim , it's insane a narcissist will manipulate you and the second you walk away they will try to lure you back in and tell you they love you , they say Narcissist are on the same Lines of Bipolar disorder , the Dr Jeykll Me Hyde effect. 1 minute they love you then Next they hate. your guts leaving you with a constant question Mark on your head , word of advice Get out of the relationship , It's a mental illness that is very messed up , it's not healthy and it. will. slowly destroy you, Cuz staying. woth someone like that will get you to a point where you will start doing things that you would of never done before makes you question your own sanity, I was with a narcissitic bipolar girl for a long time and it damaged me, i was never. good enough , compared me to others second i walk away she come chasing me back and telling me. she loves me and sucked me back in , things would go good for a short. period of. time and then bam i am an asshole again , always had a question Mark on my head , only felt love when it was. convienent for her , it's so messed up
I have the opposite problem. I’m always thinking about other people and how to make things better for them. Gets me into a lot of trouble and heartbreak.
It does, you have to learn how to manage yourself, respect yourself, establish boundaries, identify poisonous people as they will take all you can give and more. very important. there's videos, books, et. c.. learned the hard way.
yes this is how it works unfortunately. Learning something is one thing, but the conditioning is another. The attraction is in our sub conscious mind... that is what is picking. That means going in and working on deeper emotional wounds within yourself... that is the real value... then you'll select better to begin with. Filtering guys out should be a matter of writing down qualities you like, and taking time to get to know them. Guys have this problem with girls too, goes both ways.
We all have this work to do... dating is learnign about yourself, your needs, and sifting through people to find who you work well with. I wish it was easier... one day... lets hope.
I'm not entirely sure how self aware a narc tends to be.
I will fly a little kite, here, though. Narcs exist in the same environment as the rest of us. They'll wonder what concepts they hear about, all the time, through music, if not through conversation, too, such as 'love' might mean. It's not too far-fetched to imagine that might lead to a little Google research, and that they'd begin to understand the way that they think about the world, and their own place in it, is highly abnormal.
They also might see nothing wrong with it, so may well give you an honest answer to a direct question, such as this. But, as with all things narcy, who really knows what happens inside a narc's head?
No. But I grew up with a narcissistic grandmother. Even if I thought she had feelings when my mother ( her daughter) died, it was all about poor her for losing her daughter and everyone catering to her because her daughter died. She could never be selfless. She is very entitled too. Like when my grandfather died. They had been divorced for 40 years. My grandpa had spent 10 years with the love of his life before he died. My grandmother was pissed that my aunt put my grandpas love donna in the obituary. She thought she being his first wife and the mother of his children she should have been on there instead of the woman that took care of him the last years of his life. When I ever I told her I met someone her first concern was his financial status. I love her but she doesn't make it easy too.
Everyone's narcissistic in some way shape or form. However, there's healthy and unhealthy narcissism. Healthy narcissism is having realistic self-esteem which includes self-confidence, having values and empathy towards others. Unhealthy narcissism can be classified as having a narcissistic personality disorder.
For real no, I made related tests (also made other metal diseases for fun) and read what is clinically considered to be narcisist and I'm far to be a clinic narcissist. But to a certain extent and joking yes, I might be a bit narcissistic, because I sometimes enjoy looking to myself in a mirror with great wonder just like Narcissus would get absorbed looking himself in that lake
Oye. I worry I have narcissistic tendencies. I wouldn't say I'm clinically a narcissist, but I can reflect on times when my empathy was stunningly poor. In conflict, it sometimes takes my partner being really vulnerable before I bend on my position which is worrisome.
I will admit it I am narcissistic and proud lol! People give me hate for it but its better to be overly confident than insecure. They just hating cus they ain't me and don't have my looks. Besides, if you looked like me you would be arrogant too (I mean, cmon) answer my post by the way you'll be impressed.
Hate to break it to ya, but being narcissistic IS being highly insecure, that's why they feel the need to be braggadocios with false confidence.. it's all an act, because what narcissists care about most is other's opinions of them, and their biggest fear is to be found for the imposter they are.
I actually am, but a different form of Narcissist.
"Echoism is a fear of feeling special or standing out in any way, even positively. It’s a fear of seeming narcissistic in any way."
An echoist is very self deprecating to the point where they push people away with their negativity and self absorption. They cringe with compliments and try to stay out of the spotlight. They are harsh critics and have low opinions about themselves
I don’t think you would be aware of your narcissism if you are actually diagnosed with narcissistic personality disorder. Theirs a difference between narcissistic traits, and the disorder itself.
I can’t really say so. I just do whatever I can to survive and leave a couple things for entertainment and that’s it. I don’t care about how I look in social media and to others because it doesn’t affect me one way or the other. I don’t think I’m hot shit because that means nothing to me.
Yes, yet I don’t feel I’m superior over others. I have flaws just like everyone else does. But I’m still very full of myself. I love me... flaws & all! 🥰
I don’t believe I am. I can’t recall any moments where my ego got in the way of anything and I’m not sure my friends and family would tolerate me if I was narcissistic.
I am not, I have very little concern for myself and I find it hard to believe that anyone finds me attractive, so I am disqualified. Though I will occasionally act like a narcissist as a joke
Not really I understand I have good and bad qualities. I try to pit on a false sense of narcissism a lot though cause you know fake it until you make it.
Nope. I am easily irritated by children though. So I can come off insensitive and selfish to them.

I could be and not know about it when the action occurs. But I think I’m suffering from dysmorphia, that sometimes whenever I look in the mirror, I see a flaw I consider of getting plastic surgery.
Barely feel like I’m in my own body sometimes, feels more like im trapped inside my own skull looking out, hard to be narcissistic when you feel that way
It's not genetic heredity, it's environmental. If you've broken the chain, your daughter is no more at risk of it than most other kids. You, if you had a narcissistic parent, however, were.
