Narcissism is a very complex and multi-faceted phenomenon. It cannot be reduced to one trait or behavior.
Yes, it is a daily common lingering frustrating symptom of narcissistic behavior. Trust me.....been there for 16 years....there will NEVER admit that they are wrong in anything, but everything you do, will be pointed out and blown out of proportion. My husband is now in the mutation phase which I have read is rare but does occur in later years as he is 57. He is almost loving at times, but you never know when these times will be. We share an extremely strong soul bonding during this time, but the next day, he is very far away. I have and am stilling learning to live with it. It is hard, but I am too far into it to go....I do believe that it is impossible to change them, but I do believe some changes occur as they grow older where one can live with it and us being victims, do accept certain things and that makes the situation better. There is NO excuse for what a narcissist person does emotionally to a normal human being, but I do think they can't help it AT TIMES. Other times, I think they know what they are doing....but they do not "see" as a normal person sees. That is a fact. Remember, when the abuse comes, keep thinking, IT IS NOT ME...I am NOT At Fault.....it is him....

He is misleading, and a storyteller (or tale-teller).If he's compelled to lie, even when the truth would be better, then he may be a pathological liar.And if he exaggerates his health issues, he could be a hypochondriac.
When an author exaggerates personality defects to a ludicrous extreme, it is called caricature or hyperbole. This literary technique is often used to highlight and emphasize certain traits of a character for the purpose of humor or satire.
