Type in: What are the characteristics of a Narcissist?
other disordersyes many other disorders and conditions can mimic Narcissism. Borderline and Anti-social personality disorders which are in the same "B cluster" of disorders outlined in the DSM. Also narcissists display traits of schizoid, obssesive-complsive and bipolar disorders. It is not unusual for a narcissist to have eating disorders or addictions to sex, gambling, drugs etc.. I do know a diagnosed sexual addict who is not a narcissist. He displayed considerable remorse over his problem and was empathatic to others and had normal social skills.In any case, it is allways best to get a professional diagnoses if at all possible. Unfortuantely the very nature of many disorders preclude these individuals from seeking help in the first place... and thus obtain an accurate diagnoses. Many cases a victim of narcissism might obtain a "diagnoses" about the absent partner from their own therapist that they are likely dealing with a narcissist.
Sadly one does not usually recognize he/she has dealt with an N until after the damage has been done. The charm, lies, confabulations, manipulations, lies, deceit, cruelty, humiliation, lies, backstabbing, betrayal and all the lies. Oh, did i mention the lies?

Because he is a callous and uncaring narcissist. Forget about him and find a decent person.
leave and/or abuse you and blame you.
You should do some serious self analysis to determine why you would try to have an intimate relationship with a person you have described as a narcissist. Hopefully you will eventually decide that you are wasting your time and should move on with your life and find a mate who is capable of caring for and about you as much as you do about him.
See a Domestic Violence Crisis Center near you. Make a plan to get out.
Because he is projecting how he feels about himself on her. It's as simple as that.
They are ALL dangerous. NO contact, no phone calls, block emails and IMs... RUN!!
move on wah wah
He's hiding something.
call or go over and speak to him in person
Usually they have moved on by then and found another victim who is able to feed them the constant attention they need.
Because he's a narcissist and they lie, lie lie. GET AWAY FROM HIM!
Sounds like it. DO NOT MARRY HIM - 4 months is too fast (typical narcissist) - but do NOT MARRY HIM
