Would a real narcissist tell you that you could do better than to be with them?
Narcissists continually test their companions/mates/spouses - "If she knows my true character will she abandon me"? It would be a mistake to attribute this kind of behavior to altruistic motives. From my experience with an N, they would never say that anyone is better than them. It is probably just a trick to get supply out of you, make you feel sorry for him, because believe me, they don't think anyone is better than them. Yes, to manipulate you.

What letter occurs halfway through the alphabet?
The English alphabet has 26 letters. The thirteenth letter is 'M'
But this letter is not in the middle of the alphabet, neither is it halfway between the A and the Z.
'M' is at the last letter of the first half of the letters. But if you are counting from backwards from Z, the thirteenth letter is 'N'.
The same reasoning applies to all alphabets with an equal number of letters. There is no letter at the half-way point.
But if the question is about another alphabet, and one with an odd number of letters, you can easily identify the letter that is exactly halfway through, by counting.
For example, the modern standard Italian alphabet has 21 letters, and the middle letter is the 11th letter, an 'M', but this time it really is exactly half-way through the alphabet!
Or if the question is "What letter occurs halfway through 'the alphabet'?", the answer is the letter 'p'!

Who decided to order the English alphabet a through z?
The alphabet from alpha to tau was taken over from a north Semitic alphabet (probably a Phoenician script used in Syria); its introduction to Greece is perhaps reflected in the myth which tells how Cadmus, son of Agenor king of Tyre, brought letters to Thebes, the city he had founded. The shapes of the letters, their names and their order are virtually the same in both alphabets but they do not necessarily represent the same sounds. The Semitic alphabet has no characters for vowels, and the Greek therefore used for its vowels Semitic characters for consonants not in use in Greece. Thus Semitic consonant characters were used for ɑ, ε, o, and ι. The character for upsilon was taken over from a cursive Phoenician script and added to the alphabet after tau. In Greece local variations lasted for centuries. Some dialects had an extra letter, Ϝ, between epsilon and zeta, pronounced like English w and called first 'wau' by the Greeks and later digamma. It disappeared in pre-classical times from the Attic-Ionic dialects and does not appear in the standard alphabet given above. Other letters were added after upsilon to represent the sounds pH and kh.
The Latin alphabet seems to have come from an early form of Etruscan script which was itself derived from the (Euboean) Greek alphabet as used at Cumae (in Campania), a colony of Chalcis in Euboea. The early Latin alphabet was the same as its modern English derivative except that it lacked the letters G, J (for which I did duty), U, W (for which V also served), Y, and Z. The character X represented the sound ks (unlike the Greek X, which represented the sound kh). H represented the aspirate (for its varying significance in Greek see 1 above). Greek gamma was represented by the character C which was at first used for the G sound as well as for the K sound (compare the names Gaius and Gnaeus which when abbreviated were written in archaic fashion C. and Cn.); the character G was introduced in the third century BC.
