I’ll come back when my brain wakes up… if ever lol Don't forget... reactive narcsissim is not permentent when the victim gets into a healthy environment and away from truly narcissistic people. All the victims look similar to their narcissistic abuser for some time, but it goes away... eventually. Only say this, because I've spotted a girl at work that does all these things, but have determined that she is not a narc... just in the grips of her narc parents. I don't want to treat her the same as a true narc. She doesn't do this sh*t on purpose... just habits and programming from her parents, and not knowing any other way. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 81071520 It' never their fault and they can't conceive of taking responsibility for their own actions. The narc will do a 180 on you and turn into a victim in a milisecond. And if you're already onto them, you can and should use that against them. Their greatest fear is being IGNORED BTW, it's a handy trick. NO The faster you can recognise them, the faster you can get away. Don't play with snakes, they can kill you. the problem is limited information for a lot of people many know there is a problem but don't know how to find the details like, for instance the fact they have no conscious morality and can do whatever to whoever as a game very dangerous People need to find books , info online about Narcissistic personality disorder read up on the do and don'ts on how to deal with these creatures |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 3333558 United States 12/06/2022 05:07 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Wow, this thread has me wondering if I'm a weirdo. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78956429 I have done phone/internet business several times with a small business in a neighboring state. All of the staff (6 people) has been really nice and really helpful, so it occurred to me that it might be nice to surprise them with a box of small presents for them. I've never done anything like that for any other business, and I was thinking that nobody had probably ever done that for them, either. My goal was just to totally surprise them and make them smile, as a thank you for them helping me. Now you've all got me wondering if I'm some sort of narcissistic weirdo and whether I'm doing some sort of bad thing. I didn't think I was a weirdo, I thought I was just being genuinely nice and thoughtful. Something else I'm now wondering: are threads like this actually part of the larger ongoing attack on society that is meant to dissolve/destroy societal bonds? It seems like the main thrust of this thread is to get people to be hesitant about doing nice things for other people, and to be extremely suspicious/uncooperative toward people who are nice to you. Yes, that defensive strategy seems reasonable if we're solely focused on playing defense, but if we look at the bigger picture of building/maintaining society, we see that it is also quite pernicious and deleterious. I wish I had great words of wisdom regarding these issues, but I don't. I think you are on the right track. I don't think giving small gifts in the situation you describe is bad. There is a spiritual attack going on. It's on every level. Understanding Narcissism is a way to get a handle on the spiritual attack. They want us to lose faith in each other. Being smart and having faith in select people is a profound act of rebellion. Most importantly is "if you accuse you lose". The accuser is satan. Whoever accuses is playing Satan's game. That's why it seems everyone on this thread is narcissistic. Whoever said the answer is God I think what he means is you have to hold a generous and faithful frame and things will work in your favor. Narcissists exist to teach us discernment of who to trust and who not to. That's why Satan exists as an antagonist who catfises us and exposes our weaknesses. Wise advice from both of you. There very well could be an angle here with these type posts. Good thinking. It fits the NWO divide and conquer agenda. |

All the people I know who do this are the opposite of what they preach, especially shit they post on the internet. Some of them are narcissists, the rest are just hypocritical assholes. Alcoholics and crazy people are more trustable than them, we don't have much filter, we speak or minds more freely, that's why we constantly end up being excluded. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 79725442 United States 12/06/2022 05:16 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Well this is true, I also worry about if I think I'm a nice person that maybe really I'm the narc and imagining the hurts by other people. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 84886791 But yeah, moving too fast is a huge red flag. And don't forget how they treat others such as clerks and waitresses and cashiers and flight attendants. Or if their children are willing to talk to them. I think if their children have cut them out of their life, that's another red flag. And speaking hatefully about their exes, still harboring anger even years later. How you know you’re not a narc is the fact that you question if you are a narc or hav narc tendencies. A true narc doesn’t have that kind of self reflection, so you’re good. Anything telling you otherwise is just an intrusive thought, try to brush those off when they happen. This is so true. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 84886791 I'm an expert on it. I grew up in a family of narcissists/sociopaths, but I'm not one. Do you ever feel empathy for another person? Do you ever feel any remorse or guilt after doing something horrible to another person? If your answer is yes to these, you're NOT one. Remember though, it is on a spectrum. |

They will also poison you to death through your food, while at the same time pretending to love you. This is what my narc sisters did to my parents, other family members, and tried to do to me. AND they got away with several murders, 100%. Even though I went to the police and did many others things to bring justice them, it won't happen. Police are assholes and won't care or do a thing, unless you're a billionaire or someone important. Nobody cares. My advice get away at any cost. If needed, take the law into your own hands, You won't get any help from the police, other law enforcement agencies, or the courts. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 81054972 United States 12/06/2022 06:05 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You’ll know if it’s a narc if you end up feeling vaguely used/exploited/exhausted by the interaction and not energized. Your body will start hurting a lot more & you’ll feel tired all of the time. And then once you share that you’re not feeling so well, your narc will react poorly by blaming you or otherwise shaming & lacking any empathy for your pain - whether it’s real physical pain or emotional stuff. It enrages them to see you hurting. They value (not love) you based on conditions they’ve set in their mind and if you fail to meet one of them or delay meeting one (like doing them a favor) they go into the cycle of devaluing you & threatening to leave. The devaluation will often be way out of proportion with the favor. For example, you’ve canceled or changing a plan or rescheduling something or other, or delaying a favor because of an emergency or illness or obligation. Their version of “love” is 100% conditional and based entirely on what you can do for them (transactional.) If you don’t believe me, ASK them. “Why do you love me?” You will 100% of the time get an answer that involves the things you do for them or how you make them feel. They will almost never be able to list good qualities they love about you that stand on their own and aren’t tied to them somehow. There is hope of you get out early enough. You must know that you are not someone’s resource to exploit & discard. You are a special person who deserves love, you deserve to be happy. If you are brave enough to release it, wonderful things are waiting to meet you on the other side of this. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 84305916 Read up on what a narc is I didn't even know narcissistic personality disorder existed until about 10 years ago as I saw a now taken down website...Daughters of Narc mothers.... It was a good site not sure what happened OPENED UP MY EYES Strange how the medical doesn't even talk about it and rarely if ever enters books as a personality disorder Its almost as if they try to HIDE it another conspiracy I agree. I watch true crime a lot and THAT is where they talk about narcissism. My narc could become a murderer. I can see it. I know it could happen. I’d be the victim |
