As long as a narcissist has a mirror, they are with the person they love the most.
The narcissist does not want his real self to be revealed. He/she only wants to be acknowledged as superior and better then he/she really is. So every time he/she is around other people, there will always be a chance someone recognising him as a phony, because he/she will be playing a role. So when he does not feel strong and confident enough, he withdraws to be with the one and only person he trusts to gladly be fooled - hem/herself. A narcissist can only hide himself the most from himself, because he will cooperate perfectly in this game of fooling himself. So in fact, a narcissist is not really hiding himself from others, he is hiding from people so he does not have to be confronted with himself, the person he in fact is ashamed of.
That's why you NEED to learn to love yourself as you are!!! With all your weaknesses, all your troubles etc... In fact you are not weak at all and you'll gain strength by appreciating yourself. Good luck!
By the way, I used to be a narcissist 13 years ago and now I'm healed, I can only understand narcissists by memories of how I used to think. Otherwise I am as puzzled and stunned by their behavior as anyone else.
no. a sadist would want to hurt you. a narcissist would want to be hurt.
Why would ANYONE want to be with a narcissist? A codependent would be about the only type of personality that could tolerate being with a narcissist, and they will pay a terrible price. Dump the narcissist and get some help with the codependency. ACOA, CODA, Al-anon and Nar-anon are as close as your telephone.
Because he is not done using you yet. Testing you.
Pretty much - they need a worshipper & a scapegoat. Pathetic how they can't be alone so STAY AWAY from them!
Answer How do you want us to answer this question, you haven't supplied us with anything that would lead us to think she is sick or not. Can you include somethings that she does to make you think she's a narcissist?
Possibly, however men can be jerks and who knows, if you don't want to be with him, leave him and just try to forget he ever existed.
Because he doesent want to lose that control, he doesent want to lose you, you fuel his needs, narcissist dont think just anyone will put up with them. Narcissist fear greatly being a lone, no one to abuse and they just have to be depressed.
A narcissist would not want help because he or she would not think there was anything wrong. Therefore, you can't help a narcissist; even when a narcissist is court ordered into therapy, there is little a professional can do to help a person change this personality type.
What is the usage of the term "narcissist" and how does it reflect upon this situation. I do not understand. nar
Why would you WANT to go back? Narcissists will make up stuff to blame you with just to get out of the relationship. They NEVER take responsibility. Do NOT go back. Institute NO CONTACT and run!
Tell him to go and leave you alone.
