My thoughts on your question: I was married to a classic narcissist for 15 years. I didn't have the "narcissist" label to apply until after he left me and I did the research, but I knew I was married to someone with psychological issues. To me the question is why was I waiting for him (through easily the last 9 years of our marriage) to get better? He was in therapy. He had gone to a program for the Children of Alcoholics. He appeared to want to find his way. And I was patiently waiting for him to find some inner peace . . . andstill be loving to me. In hindsight, I believe that every narcissist needs the codependent person who is willing to be their biggest fan (or biggest enemy). And the codependent increasingly becomes obsessed with proving they are one of those. As the biggest fan, I constantly put his needs before mine. As his biggest fan, I felt it was my mission to provide him with the "safety" and "normalcy" that he purported to crave. I put my career on the back burner and put his schedule and the demands of his career way ahead of my own. And I somehow thought he would love me more for all of these choices. Is the codependent person a love addict? I know I was pretty love-starved when I first got involved with my husband. He came on strong when I was 31 and still single, and nobody had ever courted me so aggressively. He asked me to marry him at 3 months of dating, and we married 8 months later. ( Not surprisingly I was his second wife and he and wife #1 (also a 15 year marriage) seemed to obsessively hate each other.) Through therapy I was able to see the issues, but not fully resolve them. I can see some personal codependency in my new relationship (though he's not a narcissist). . . so it's probably back for more therapy. The good news is that I can see it. Now for the hard work of addressing it. By the way, my ex got immediately involved with another woman, his former secretary who is 16 years his junior, and seems to worship him . . .
Both words define the same behavior. Faithful love for another (or others) is fidelity. Self-love, or disloyalty, is infidelity. See also Islamic "infidel". The infidel is described as motivated by love of self versus the community.

A physiological addiction involves physical dependence on a substance, where the body develops tolerance and withdrawal symptoms. A psychological addiction is more focused on the mental craving and emotional attachment to a behavior or substance without necessarily involving physical withdrawal symptoms.
The Culture of Narcissism was created in 1979.

Kelly's narcissism prevented her from forming genuine friendships with other people. Another phrase for narcissism is self-absorption. It is a noun.
No, not all narcissists are necessarily sex addicts. Narcissism is a personality trait characterized by an inflated sense of self-importance, a lack of empathy, and a constant need for admiration. On the other hand, sex addiction is a behavioral disorder characterized by an unhealthy and compulsive preoccupation with sexual thoughts, fantasies, and activities. While there might be some overlap between narcissism and sex addiction, they are distinct concepts. Some narcissists may engage in sexually compulsive behavior due to their desire for validation and attention, but it's not accurate to say that all narcissists are sex addicts or that all sex addicts are narcissists.
