For as long as they can. Narcissists need people. They have to have someone to envy them; agree with them; think they are they greatest thing in the world and so on. You are pretty much in their world to be what they need you to be not what you are. They only act of kindness you get is when they notice you have had about enough of them and since they don't want someone to leave their life they throw you something to make you feel special for a bit; then its back to them. And if you do decided to leave well its YOUR loss of course.

Can a narcissist be friends with another narcissist?
Probably not, they would fight over mirror time. ;)
Is it common that victims will want to cut ties with the narcissist's friends after leaving the relationship?
It's normal and it's the thing to do. By staying in touch with the friends of the narcissist it still links you to the narcissist. Move on and start a new future. What friends? A true narcissist has no real loyal friends. They are known as supply. Those friends who are true to you will "self select" and will make their choice when you break up. However, if they want to maintain contact with the "narcissist" then you need to set them free. It just creates chaos in your life.
Would a narcissist ex-boyfriend talk about his ex to mutual friends in a way that makes it appear he is decent and moral when in reality he is trying to just take another dig at her?
OF COURSE! Mines is doing that now. They'd do anything to make themselves look like the saint. That is classic narcissist behavior. You have to be pretty careful in knowing who your friends are and who the narcissist has gotten to. I hate to say it but in order to figure out what the narcissist is up to, you have to think like a narcissist. Of course that makes you look bad, like you ARE a narcissist (you've probably picked up some narcissist behaviors being around one anyway) so BE CAREFUL. My narcissist called this game "Ex Caliber" after King Arthur's sword. He said people who were pure and of good intentions could slip past his defenses. Translation: You better make yourself look better than the narcissist and dodge the mud he's flinging if you want to keep your friends!
Why does the narcissist keep coming back?
He came to look in your mirror.
Why does a narcissist try to keep in touch with friends who don't want to speak to him?
Because they are always trolling for admirers. They can't believe no one would want to speak to them - they're perfect, right? LOL
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.
How do you deal with a narcissist mother?
You keep reminding her that you are her child after all. Tell her that you are updated version of her!
Why does a narcissist want to keep surprising you but will never act according to your expectation?
They feed off of YOUR reactions.
Is it possible to have a friendship with a narcissist?
It can be possible to be friends with a narcissist but do not expect much from this person. Also expect the friendship not to be very fufilling and mostly one sided (on your part) The one thing that does help is that you already know that he/she is a narcissist so you will understand why they do or say most things. I say give it a shot but do not expect too much like a friendship where that person will always be there for you no matter what because that just will not happen. I know this from experience. GOODLUCK!
Why does your narcissist boyfriend treat everyone else better?
Because the narcissist always has to have someone to kick around. As long as you're available to kick around, he's happy to keep up some sort of relationship. As soon as you stand up on your own two feet,, he starts to look for someone else to kick.
What will happen if you keep enableing a narcissistic person?
