Best Answer

The narcissist creates the image that he/she wants the world to see. He/she can only do that when the truth isn't available to the audience. If the narcissist keeps his/her life hidden then 1) he/she can lie about that life and continue grandiose delusions, or 2) avoid taking responsibility because he/she can continue shift-blaming. Moreover, perhaps addiction is a factor. If your ex uses, then secrecy is part of that addict behavior. Whatever the cause, count it as a blessing that you don't have the details, and reciprocate. Any information that the narcissist has about you will be used to manipulate you. Being open and honest is fine... with sane people. Minimal contact if necessary, and no contact if possible.

* No, the Narcissist can't hide what he/she is by most psychologists or psychiatrists. You may get total custody in your favor just by what the psychologist has diagnosed you're ex with, but beware .. in turn he can be evaluated by a psychologist (orders by his lawyer that his client .. your ex have an evaluation) and you could come up with a stalemate! http://personalitydisorders.suite101.com/article.cfm/narcissistpsychopath
