I believe they are not capable of being happy. In case they have everything for their false image to be supported- wealth, professional success, great spouse and kids- they may SEEM happy. But every once in a while something would remind them of what they really are- an empty shell- or somebody or something would allegedly threaten them. This was my experience, sadly. I wish I had never met him, he almost ruined my life.

By definition a narcissist is extremely self-centred so probably also selfish.
We all possess a degree of Narcissism. A good dose of self-esteem and self-regard is healthy for us and is essential to our ego identities. Without any self-interest, we would lose our ability to support and protect ourselves in the world. Only when there is a trauma or injury to one's ego identity severe enough to damage self-esteem, or shatter ego identity altogether does narcissism emerge as a personality disorder.
With healthy narcissism a person can be motivated, inspired; determined to do things to get himself noticed or to influence people. Celebrities, entertainers, teachers, artists, physicians, home makers are examples of some of the types of people who like to be the center of attention or influence. But that's in a good, because we all benefit from a healthy narcissist's actions--the math genius teacher, the medical guru, or the rock star.
With healthy narcissists, we want them to 'think much of themselves' and to reward them because it's what keeps them producing those things we enjoy and contributing positively to our society.
Doubtful. Marriage is about give and take.
Leave, then empty the bank.
Everyone can have a good marriage. It depends whether or not they get married twice, I guess.
A compensatory narcissist would not be able to have a successful second marriage. This is because they would always be craving praise while belittling their spouse to make themselves feel better.
Hire a hitman.
If they are a true narcissist they will use any and everybody to feed their ego doesn't matter positive or not.They are only interested in themselves.
Yes. Marriage has nothing to do with blood type.
Perhaps he (or she) has overcome his fear of commitment. And perhaps he has found the woman that he feels is genuinely right for him.
It is important to establish boundaries with your wife, seek individual therapy to cope with the challenges of being in a relationship with a narcissist, and consider couples therapy to improve communication and address issues in the marriage. Prioritizing self-care and seeking support from loved ones can also help you navigate this difficult situation.
Blood groups are A, B, and O. Each type of blood is either positive or negative. When a couple is planning on marriage, their blood type is not as important as the positive or negative aspect. A woman with negative blood types may encounter problems having children if her husband has a positive blood type. All blood types are compatible as long as they are both positive or negative.
Any stable family is a positive influence.
There are many positive attributes of marriage. It can bring stability and a sense of commitment to a relationship. If one decides to have children, it also provides a base for a nuclear family.
Same-sex marriage threatens to bring equality and freedom over the protests of religion. That's a positive thing.
