Narcissisim is decribed as self love which in turn they do not need someone else "supplying" anything for them as they are too into themselves. They will allow you to admire and "worship" them so to speak but will push you away if you may offer anything they typically feel for themselves.

Narcissism in politics?

A scary thought!, lol. It could be like giving a child a gun to play with depending on the situation. Yes there are many narcissists in politics. This would also be quite the source of narcissitic supply as well for the individual, it could also be stressful for them if they screw it up and it turns into a narcissistic injury. I personally believe the same rules apply except everything is bigger and better for the narcissist but riskier and more danagerous for us. Afterall the narcissist is not there for his people, he or she is there for themself.


Is it normal for a narcissist to say they dont know what love is because they have never had it in their lives even though you told them how much you loved them?

The only "love" a narcissist knows is self-love. Their inability to empathize with anyone else means they are unlikely to know what love is. A narcissist will say anything to maintain their narcissistic supply. If you are the source of this supply, and they realised that if they said they don't know what love is will get you to increase that supply, then they will say it. Please be careful. Look after yourself.

When the narcissist is in idealisation phase is this the same as what we know as love?

Empathically not. Narcissists are incapable of loving. Idealization - the unrealistic, fantasic, pathological, and utilitarian adulation of a source of narcissistic supply - has nothing to do with love.


Is reluctant reconciliation a narcissist trait?

Because he wasn't sure that he has secured a substitute. Nasrcissists drop their current sources of supply (devalue and discard) ONLY when they have an alternative ready. Narcissists are addicted to a drug known as "Narcissistic Supply". Attention (good OR bad), adulation, applause, fame, celebrity, notoriety - are all narcissistic supply. The people who supply these consistently, reliably, and predictably, are called "Narcissistic Supply Sources". Why should the narcissist look for another source of supply if the current source of supply is available (always accepts him back)? Cultivating a source of secondary narcissistic supply is a VERY time consuming and energy consuming affair. The path of least resistance (reverting to old sources) is always preferred. The old source has the advantage of having recorded memories of past grandeur. Her very "surrender" and "yielding to his charms" IS the supply he seeks. He sort of pushes the envelope, trying to ascertain and map the outer limits of his potency as irresistible male and mate. The more tortured the relationship - the sweeter the recurrent victory. This is doubly true when the narcissist is in the throes of life crises such as loss of a job, divorce, serious illness, etc.


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.


What is the longest a narcissist stays away from his supply?

A narcissist will stay away as long as he has other supply to entertain him and keep him from getting bored. When they either lose that supply or begin to grow tired of him or her, then they often seek out "old supply" before cultivating new supply again. It is far easier for the narcissist to get back in touch with an ex in order to quickly get NS. Remember, narcissists cannot stand not having supply. They'll do anything to get it and fast. They'll use ex's or old supply to bridge the gap between the supply they just lost and the one they will soon meet.
