Yeah I actually had an ex-friend who ended up revealing to me after a few months that she believed she was an incarnation of God, like Jesus.

In retrospect I shouldn't have been surprised because she was always telling me what to do, as if I had an obligation to obey her. For example, she told me I needed to delete my GAG account because GAG is wicked, and if I have any questions I need to ask her instead.

Then she started pressuring me to have "spiritual sex" with Satan, and she told me that I needed to stop questioning her, and that's when I just ghosted her.

I'm definitely going to be more cautious regarding whom I interact with in the future.

He was my ex husband. Everything was about him. He's a liar, a thief, a cheater, and a drug addict. Everything that has ever gone wrong in his life is someone else's fault, according to him. He is a master manipulator and had me feeling like I was a bad person, even though I never once did him wrong.

"How common is a narcissistic personality disorder?
Experts estimate that up to 5% of people have NPD. Narcissism is one of 10 personality disorders."

It seems to me that people confuse others who are self-absorbed and self-centered as a a Narcissist.

I've known quite a few people who are self-absorbed and self-centered and they are not "bad" people. Sure, all they do is talk about themselves but they do a lot of good too.

I personally have not met anyone specifically like that but people in my life have tendencies like that. Wanting things a certain way and expecting things a certain way... Almost everyone in my life including myself has that to some extent but I think the key here is those that have this trait more than others

Well I first saw him descending a golden escalator where he declared his intent to run for President and then called Mexicans rapists and murderers. He traumatized the nation and over 350 million Americans died because of this narcissist. Look at the traits listed and notice they all describe the loser currently raging out his last days in office.

Jamie05rhs · Answer

Yes, I have. It's a miserable experience every time you interact with them. It makes me want to see that person as little as possible.
