Yes, it is possible for a narcissist to react that way when told they are beautiful, as they may feel entitled to compliments and seek validation in different forms. Their response may reflect a lack of genuine appreciation for others' opinions or feelings.

Would a narcissist tell you that he loves you?

Yes, but only if he got something out of it.


Would an overly intelligent narcissist or borderline NP ever admit to being somewhat narcissistic?

It is unlikely for an overly intelligent narcissist or borderline NP to admit to being somewhat narcissistic willingly. These individuals tend to have difficulty acknowledging their flaws or shortcomings as it conflicts with their self-image and ego. However, with therapy and self-awareness, it is possible for them to recognize and address their narcissistic traits.


How do you separate a narcissist from his willing victim?

Separating a narcissist from their willing victim can be challenging due to the manipulative tactics employed by the narcissist. It may require the victim to recognize the patterns of manipulation and seek support from a therapist or counselor to create boundaries and develop a safety plan. Encouraging the victim to prioritize self-care and surround themselves with a supportive network can also help in breaking free from the narcissist.


If one is horrified because he just realized he was a narcissist does this contradict his own verdict of being a narcissist?

No, feeling horrified upon realizing one is a narcissist does not necessarily contradict the diagnosis, as narcissists can experience moments of self-awareness and regret. It could indicate a level of insight and understanding of one's behavior, but addressing these feelings and seeking professional help would be beneficial in addressing narcissistic traits.


Which would you choose knowledge or beauty and why?

I would choose knowledge because it has the power to unlock new possibilities, deepen understanding, and drive personal growth. While beauty can bring aesthetic pleasure, knowledge empowers individuals to make informed decisions and create meaningful contributions to the world.

Would a narcissist ex-boyfriend talk about his ex to mutual friends in a way that makes it appear he is decent and moral when in reality he is trying to just take another dig at her?

OF COURSE! Mines is doing that now. They'd do anything to make themselves look like the saint. That is classic narcissist behavior. You have to be pretty careful in knowing who your friends are and who the narcissist has gotten to. I hate to say it but in order to figure out what the narcissist is up to, you have to think like a narcissist. Of course that makes you look bad, like you ARE a narcissist (you've probably picked up some narcissist behaviors being around one anyway) so BE CAREFUL. My narcissist called this game "Ex Caliber" after King Arthur's sword. He said people who were pure and of good intentions could slip past his defenses. Translation: You better make yourself look better than the narcissist and dodge the mud he's flinging if you want to keep your friends!

You have to negotiate with a narcissist to get something you really want from him so how best to approach him in order to get him to agree to what you want?

Well, I would stay away from a narcissist altogether. However, if you want something from them, the only way is to appear extremely weak and helpless to them, and flatter them like hell. You pretty much have to humiliate yourself to get anything out of them. That's why its best to just stay away.
