But most people arent getting it right.
Most of the time what theyre describing isnt a narcissist, its just a jerk.
Anarcissist is a very specific breed that inflicts a specific pop in of damage.

A jerk is just a jerk.
A narcissist will twist his way into the depths of your soul.
But what is it like to be in a relationship with one of these sinister creatures?
Be it romantic, familial, friendship, or business.
And how is it they can inflict such immense damage on their victims?
This is what it typically looks like:
1.
They are exclusively motivated by the need to fuel their own ego.
Here is something very important to realize: a narcissist is solely motivated to feed their own ego.
Every person they interact with is a means to that specific end.
A narcissist can never genuinely care about you on a human level.
They just dont have the capability.
You are there to serve them.
You are not a person, you are a pawn.
They dont do anything with a self-serving agenda.
They will gaslight you to the moon.
Theyget you so twisted that you’re free to no longer trust yourself in any capacity.
I dated a classic narcissist and caught him talking to multiple other girls.
And he was so convincing that somehow I believed it.
Thisis what a narcissist will do.
They will distort reality in any which way to fit how they want things to be.
They give empty compliments.
And again, this totally messes with your head and you dont know whats true or real anymore.
Any compliments they give you are really to serve their own agenda.
No matter the case, they are once again only furthering their own agenda.
4, They are always right, you are always wrong.
A narcissist will spin up all kinds of word salad to prove why theyre right and youre wrong.
Forget about logic and reason and all your proof, they will never ever admit to being at fault.
They want your pity.
And this is true.
So that they can control you, of course.
You may start making excuses for them.
They cant help it.
Its not his fault.
And then he has you right where he wants you.
He prays on your empathy to stay in your life and to gain the upper hand.
Their apologies are self-serving.
This is another unexpected truth about narcissists.
While theydont ever accept faultor responsibility, a narcissist will apologize… if he has to.
Narcissists understand how relationships work.
They know people have feelings and boundaries.
The problem is they will never be able to truly empathize with someone elses pain.
Its not about accepting responsibility, its about getting things back on track.
He may say sorry, but dont be fooled, he will never actuallybesorry.
