It has been my experience that they will fake-hurt for a moment and then go out and try and get more of their narcissistic supply from whoever, wherever....their "fake hurt" only lasts until they find someone to take the place of the person who just left them.
The antonym for the word narcissist is altruist. An altruist is someone who selflessly cares for the well-being of others, in contrast to a narcissist who is excessively self-involved.

Yes, sometimes a narcissist will contact their ex after a break up because the narcissist cannot imagine their ex with anyone else as the narcissist has a complex of being the greatest at everything including relationships and is ego maniacal.
Narcissist or not they are like others in society ... some smoke others don't and it has nothing to do with being Narcissistic.
You can't. Part of being a narcissist means that they cannot possibly be wrong/disordered/need help.
yes they can, in my experience the child's narcissism is a result of being raised by a narcissist ,
Affability is the state or quality of being affable, the ability to receive others kindly, and treating them in a friendly manner.
Yes anyone can be a supply for them,anyone that is Not a narcissist ,and to be a victim you just need to be a human being with feelings.
A smug person tends to have an excessive sense of self-satisfaction and superiority, often displaying it openly. On the other hand, a narcissist has an inflated sense of their own importance, a constant need for admiration, and a lack of empathy for others. While both may exhibit similar behaviors, a narcissist's traits tend to be more extreme and detrimental to relationships.
Educate her on narcissism, remind her of how awful he is. I was in a similar boat with my cousin. Her ex N was so terrible that we thought he was a sociopath at first and his attitude was often compared to that of a serial killer. He would laugh at that kind of thoughts on him, but he was truly ill. The utter lack of emotion for things he'd done. He would seem to get off on watching her hurt. We recently found out he's a Narcissist. The more she can learn and apply the symptoms, the easier it will get to move on. Personally, in my situation I would find times in her relationship where he would be mimicking her likes and dislikes and each time I showed her that he WAS constantly saying that everything she says is the same as him and every emotion he had were exaggerated and she soon became more aware. Luckily I had things to compare it to. It's not an easy thing. Her ex sounds like a pathetic human being. He discarded her and disappeared I assume means he also discarded the child and that is disgusting but for a narcissist it really is nothing out of the ordinary. She is better off without this person. Distance herself from everything pertaining to this person. Block him from re-entering her life at a later date, which I have noticed Narcissist's will do. Come back for more. The child is lucky that he's gone. Take care and good luck.
Being narcissistic and egocentric is the same.
Why would ANYONE want to be with a narcissist? A codependent would be about the only type of personality that could tolerate being with a narcissist, and they will pay a terrible price. Dump the narcissist and get some help with the codependency. ACOA, CODA, Al-anon and Nar-anon are as close as your telephone.
