How do you control a narcissist?

Once a narcissist realizes they cannot control a new conquest they lose interest. It is inaccurate to say they "grow tired". It is rather that they are not interested in someone they cannot control.

Yes Narcissist cheats. I have read one who satisfies their narcissistic supply with sex is called a Somatic Narcissist. My ex married one-and he is a pathological narcissist as I know I lived it-It is the most insidious emotional abuse one can encounter- A Somatic Narcissist tends to be very promiscuous-she/he disregards her marriage and have multiple affairs just to satisfy their need for narcissist supply -Admiration-power--The Somatic Narcissist will capture you - control you with their sexual seduction and when he/she has you completely in their control her true self will come out-cruel and unemotional-and when you no longer satisfy their narcissistic supply the Somatic Narcissist will leave you as quickly as he/she entered your life-and onto the next-As I understand Somatic Narcissist have many affairs --regardless married or not. Question what happens when one Narcissist marries another Narcissist-it should be interesting to watch

Yes very much so. A narcissist hates not being in control. They also hate to be judged and seen as the problem. When in prison they lose their narcisstic supply.

To a narcissist, losing control is simply not an option. He'll take a hit but you can bet that he'll plan his next move carefully.

Because he need the supplyment from your potential reaction which could "prove" to him that he still have control. Control is of highest importance for him!

Even psychiatrists can't answer this question. A Narcissist has a deep core in them that is extremely complex (many things in one) and their behavior is usually learned from their environment (family.) Example: A young man or woman growing up can be over-shadowed by a mother/father that never lets him/her grow up, or a cruel mother/father or one that deserts him/her, thus, he/she begins to hate the opposite sex. A Narcissist is about control and therefore when a woman/man speaks of love for them the Narcissist feels owned or possessed and they don't like the feeling because they need that total control. Narcissist almost always choose submissive type personalities (easier to control and play head games with.) This DOES NOT mean that a shy or loving mate of a Narcissist is weak at all. The Narcissist is simply the preditor and the victim is their prey. Some Narcissists can hate women or vice-versa with a vengence, but then again, many men/women can hate the opposite sex and not be a Narcissist. Some Narcissists adore women and really try to have a normal relationship, but of course it always fails because of the control issue.

No, the narcissist does not know, after all he is perfect and everyone else around him is at fault.

A borderline. Essentially a more emotionally reactive narcissist.

No - absolutely not....

very often a N. is OCD as well..having obsessive compulsive disorder is commonly found. they are control freaks and must always be in control.

Sometimes not at first because a narcissist likes drama and likes to be around special people in order to feel special vicariously. But if and when she becomes too much for him to deal with he will leave. A narcissist really needs submissive women. Women they can dominate and control and get "Narcissistic supply" from....at heart they are insecure cowards!

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.

Try to find another outlet for this narcissist.

Run like the wind from a narcissist.

Not if the narcissist is as smart as she/he believes herself/himself to be.

Yes it does especially if the narcissist favor's the child. The child will grow up to be just like the narcissist.

they're still a Narcissist just a stoned Narcissist

Narcissist in some cases can be a sexual predator, a stalker, or a rapist. But only criminal narcissist are this way

Control ! They all do this. Institute NO CONTACT Answer Yep. It's all about control with narcissist people. Get rid of him! Tell him no. They hate that word and he will most likely try even harder but stand your ground and he will eventually give up. It make take a while but he will eventually give up. Hopefully.

The chances are vanishingly small.

Only if there is something in it for them - because they are, after all, a narcissist!

Because of their psychological control over their victims. Read WOMEN WHO LOVE PSYCHOPATHS for better information.

Not likely. The narcissist is more likely to be addicted to himself.

Probably not, they would fight over mirror time. ;)

If you mean get the best of, then I would suggest leaving him. A narcissist likes control and they thrive on fear and making you doubt yourself. Take away his control by leaving him. Also start talking about how other men are so successful, make sure that you pick someone that is real. Hearing about someone else's success will eat at him. Narcissists are hermits out of a shell, send that hermit back to his shell by taking back the control.
