One of the main characteristics of a narcissist is that they have both an inflated ego, and poor self esteem. In other words, they are either believing, "I'm the greatest thing since sliced bread," or they are believing, "I'm a good for nothing POS." For the narcissist, the world will trigger either state, depending on the narcissist's beliefs and values. It sounds like the clinging happens because the narcissist you refer to is in a state of poor self esteem, maybe because they are confronted with their icky, narcissistic stuff because of mirroring.What is wrong with a person who mirrors a narcissist and makes them cling? Only that they will have to be prepared to deal with a person who is very vulnerable to shifts in self-image; and be the trigger for those shifts. It is a big responsibility to take on. The mirroring person needs to be careful not to create too much pain for himself, or the narcissist.
AnswerPlease explain mirroring? AnswerMirroring is sort of the victim's role.The narcissist needs to constantly look in the "mirror" to believe they are great and wonderful and beautiful. It's very important to them. Even if everything is falling apart in their real lives, if they look in the "mirror" and everything is seemingly wonderful, they they don't perceive any problems.Usually, a narcissist gets his/her fix through a spouse or friend who acts as that mirror.You know, it takes two to tango?I was just wondering why I am such a good mirror...I attract these people and I was looking to work on why I mirror people like that so much. I give them their fix but at the same time, I destroy my real life in the process.I lose all my friends, they don't understand why I hang out with them (me either but something must attract me to this since I keep repeating the same mistakes....).My mother is a narcissist, why would explain where I learned the habit of being a good mirror......BUt I really need some insight, some clues...so I can stop being like this. It makes me sad, very sad.I hope this sort of clears up your question.
thank you
Stubbornly cling to there pride
Static cling can cause clothes to stick together or cling to the body, making it uncomfortable to wear. It can also attract lint and other particles to clothing, which can be visually unappealing. Additionally, static cling can create a mild electrical shock when touching metal objects.

The puppy has bonded with this person. It considers this person its pack leader.
That entirely depends upon the value system of the "target" of the narcissist. For the naive, loyal, trusting sorts...the answer is likely "yes." For those who effectively learn from and use previous life experiences to form their value system and this results in useful critical thinking, healthy suspicions or healthy self-confidence....the answer is likely "no." I believe the most confounding characteristic of the narcissist is that "bait-and-switch-and-then-switch-back-to-the-bait" socializing technique of theirs! They're nice. They're a terror. They turn back to nice. On the receiving end, this is...confusing. And for many, especially those who believe all people are inherently "good,"...there's the inclination to cling to the nice-part of the narcissist; a personal hope/belief that the narcissist will somehow BE or RETURN to BEING that "nice" person that s/he first met or has known. It's hard to let go of that nice or charming person whom they initially knew or met...
