The chances of you actually knowing two authentically clinically diagnosed narcissists in your lifetime is extremely rare. Arrogance is not Narcissism. ==I understand your concern== I wonder about the same thing. I am resisting the "codependent" theory that would seem to indicate we may be magnets for narcissists and other abusers. I would hate to think that is true(?!). I am trying to establish better boundaries for myself. I have vowed never to take any more sh*t from any man. If I am uncomfortable with something, I will either confront the issue directly for a solution or make the decision to end the relationship (depending on the degree of discomfort or alarm I feel. Some things CAN be worked out in a "normal" relationship.) The bottom line may be: We can't change or fend off the narcissists in our world, but we can change to create barriers to protect ourselves. Healthy self-esteem and proper boundaries may be the key. I am determined not to let this happen to me again!

When you ended the relationship you hurt his pride not his heart (as he doesn't have one). He doesn't want you back to love you but so that HE gets to end the relationship. Don't communicate with him - at all.

The narcissist doesnt feel like there is anything to cure! Only if they are willing to seek help is there any hope at all. Otherwise they are doomed to be miserable.

A narcissist doesn't always use another woman as N supplyit can be another source right?

Yes, I believe that this is true, it doesn't have to be another woman. I have recently witnessed someone that I believe is a narcissist (but not a malignant narcissist) go FROM an NS of male friends TO an NS of another woman. But the male friends were the NS for quite some time. I think the narcissist will use as an NS anyone - male or female - that satisfies his need for narcissistic supply.

Narcissist in love with a narcissist?

It's certainly possible. A narcissist may date another narcissist that is more selfish than they are to feel better about themselves. In turn say "i'm not as selfish as he/she is so that makes me above him/her). It's incredible and shocking the way people with this disorder think. It takes a lot of research to understand a narcissist.

A Narcissist NEVER makes any mistakes. It is always the fault of another person is done TO him not BY HIM so that he will look to be at fault.
