Should you stay married to your husband if I know he's a Narcissists?

Answer 1

It's nearly impossible to have any long term relationship without fallout with a narcissus. The tendency is to think if you do or say something "right enough", they will wake up, and begin to behave better, and this is dangerous thinking. He/she will NOT wake up. Narcissists lack empathy and give and take and are clearly motivated for "self" in nearly everything they do. There is no "treatment" for narcissistic disorders because that would mean the narcissus would have to have self introspective and believe (and want) that there is a need for them to change. I would LOVE to say that there is a chance at normalcy with a true narcissus, but there is not. You either decide to leave the situation or you stay and live a miserable life. I know this sounds harsh, but it is a cold hard reality...the most you can expect from a narcissus is more of the same.

Answer 2

Only if you are like the Nymphe Echo: you don't have too much of a personality yourself, you like mirroring and admiring your narcissistic lover, and you often repeat his words in awe. And you are of the selfless, servile, docile type. Just be careful that your admired lover doesn't accidently kill himself on one of his egotrips.

Good luck!

Answer 3

Of course, but it may not be pleasant for the wife . . .
