Answer:

It is possible for a narcissist to be affectionate and sweet in my experience.

Answer:

Yes. But only to themselves. It's the meaning of a narcissist.

Answer:

Yes, particularly in the over valuation (idealisation) stage or when they feel lonely after a spell of being alone after walking out on you. I also noted with my ex narc that if he was feeling 'euphoric' he was very affectionate and he really did love his cuddles. If he was feeling dysphoric then he was plain angry and bad tempered and any offer of a cuddle for him or a sweet word was greeted with hostility. He however, when i was in the devaluation stage he withdrew affections from me in very painful ways, he would not hold my hand, only one end of a finger, he stopped kissing me, stopped wearing my rings, stopped telling me he loved me, threaten to leave me or threaten I will not see him for X amount of weeks and many other things, yet during all this I still had to give to him, it was expected of me, if I did'NT give to him his un-earnt affection I was punished further and believe me the weeks on end of silent treatment I got over the years were the most unbearable. Anyway he was getting his affection elsewhere for 4 yrs of our 8 yr relationship I found out that's why he starved me of any but hey ho he made sure he got his!!!! Affection? I think they can take it or leave it as it suits.
