Definitely not worth it.
It's normal and it's the thing to do. By staying in touch with the friends of the narcissist it still links you to the narcissist. Move on and start a new future. What friends? A true narcissist has no real loyal friends. They are known as supply. Those friends who are true to you will "self select" and will make their choice when you break up. However, if they want to maintain contact with the "narcissist" then you need to set them free. It just creates chaos in your life.

Their emotional, psychological and mental protection is paramount.
A borderline. Essentially a more emotionally reactive narcissist.
The Histrionic Personality Disorder (HPD) is a separate mental health disorder. I assume, therefore, that you are referring to the SOMATIC female narcissist. She derives her sense of self-worth from her sexual conquests. And, yes, she is enraged by rejection.
He is a narcissistic jerk.
Be careful if you do, the narcissist can be a monster to anyone who hurts their pride.
