narcissist: Excessive love and admiration of oneself! Of course, aren't we all a little narcissistic? Isn't self-love a good thing? In the context of these two statement, shouldn't I question your assessment? Everybody indulges in some Narcissism. We all try to promote ourselves, shine the light of day on our wonderful nature. And, may I say, that even in the best of relationships, we bend the truth at times. I bet that you have. That's why I must question your assessment. For even an out and out narcissist has moment when his/her indulgence ends. So, like in any relationship, the truth or the lie is going to be based on your assessment. And, I bet, that with a lot of trial and error, you'll figure out where the truth lies. Read Chapter 3, 'Private Realities' of Meyer's "Marriages, Shack-ups and Other Disasters" and look up references and website on my Bio Page.

Why does my ex narcissist hide his life from me?
The narcissist creates the image that he/she wants the world to see. He/she can only do that when the truth isn't available to the audience. If the narcissist keeps his/her life hidden then 1) he/she can lie about that life and continue grandiose delusions, or 2) avoid taking responsibility because he/she can continue shift-blaming. Moreover, perhaps addiction is a factor. If your ex uses, then secrecy is part of that addict behavior. Whatever the cause, count it as a blessing that you don't have the details, and reciprocate. Any information that the narcissist has about you will be used to manipulate you. Being open and honest is fine... with sane people. Minimal contact if necessary, and no contact if possible.

Losing is not an option for the narcissist. Because of his inability to feel remorse, the narcissist acts out normal responses based purely on observation of others.
