Narcissists have emotions. They will steal your ideas and personality traits if they find them valuable though. Narcissists have deep emotions in several areas. They're certainly not devoid of them like a psychopath would be. Even a psychopath has some limited emotions, like they can feel rage. I'm going through a divorce (he left me when I got sick), from a narcissist...at least I now believe him to be a narcissist. It's a nightmare. He had "mortification" when he left, so I don't think I will ever see him again. It was a 25 year marriage and he is trying to ruin me financially. It's hard for me to fight back because I'm healing from surgery and still not well. He wants everything and is trying to have me removed from our home by the end of the month. I have nowhere to go, little money, no job, and I need another surgery. It's devastating.

@@mygirldarbyI hope you managed to get your life sorted? Understand the pain of this 🙏

I KNOW RIGHT!?

Hes the man you really loved , is called alpha widowed. A woman will regret her whole life if she couldnt maintain her alpha. It only happens once

So what are you?

Well the first sign that you aren't is that you are willing to admit this possibility. Usually this is impossible to even to consider for a narcissist. Well, in my experience at least.

​@@prathameshborkut5340 Still listening to it...

Feels like i am narcissistic for sure, definitely dependant and very happy to hang around the borders... The problem is that i am totally aware of all that crap, most of it at least.

​@@digitalninja85 Thank you.

it's your fault :)

@@user-th7mi1gp9t lol 😆 of course it is

@@user-th7mi1gp9t 😂🤣👌🏼

Hearing voices is psychotic, not narcissistic.

Oh he didn't just have "spiritual downloads", it was the rest of his behaviour that points out to him being a narcissist, so can he be both?...I googled it, apparently you can have both. 🤯

@@charlottebuck6907 You can.

@@samvaknin thank you ☺️

run as fast as possible or the wasted years and denying your own needs will break you

Run!

​@@ayeelauraGet out ASAP...Please, it is not you. Disappear like a ghost and never contact him. Go to your trusted family members and trusted friends, even if there is nobody, run like hell.

Really? The internet has and society at Large should destroy the MBTI- it is baseless, and the extreme investment people place in a so called “psychometric” measure…any measure of personality which is so multifaceted and dimensional than the MBTI can ever hope to offer. Scientific method eschews the use of forced choice responses…which every single question on the MBTI is. Horoscopes are exactly the same as the MBTI - unverified, lacking rigour; mentioning jung without any notion that she stole his core personality disposition work without credit or attribution it deserved is a testament to her and daughters bankrupt ethical / and academic prowess, introvert/extrovert were conceptualised by Jung and are indeed the only accurate dimension proffered by by him ? Why? Because he was reticent and rigorous about truth, MOr the unwillingness to speak on things in which he wasn’t expert: introverted/extroverted that’s it. MBTI, but for the ignorant whom perceive it as something more than simple “fun” / have drunk the kool-aid. Btw the reason you get the same results or similar does not confirm validity in any form - it’s that you are 100 💯 primed to answer the same in subsequent retests. Perhaps if you really wanted to know who you are and why you are the way you are you would perform due diligence and not place yourself into the SPECIOUS boxes 📦 that the mbti offers. Do yourself a favour grab horoscopes for next month / year - Redact which zodiac the predictions / insights are for and come back and tell me that ALL OF THEM didn’t apply. MBTI is a wolf in sheeps clothing it sounds specific but if you critically analyse it for a moment you realise how vague and universal they are…but seducing in their specious and facile categorisation. People are better than the MBTI and its bullshit boxes. Wake up

Many narcissists like BDSM and kink, but only a small minority of practitioners of BDSM and kink are narcissists.

@@samvaknin Thank you for answer. That is interesting.

Then again, she produces honey and yoghurt and sells them in the local market and she keeps her big tits and butt covered not showing off with them, although she is selfish definitely, who is not? Is it her or me which is a narcissist? Or am i just plain horny?

Run, and dont look back, like you life depends on it. get a respectful person .

Maybe the attraction is that she makes life less boring. But you're old enough to know that drama turns to pain in the ass real fast. Do you want to laugh now and cry later? Narcs will ALWAYS be number One and Only. You know. YOU KNOW she's already trying to put it over your child, who didn't ask to be brought into the world, who NEEDS You so purely to be his rock, and teach him to navigate life. My narc ex couldn't care at all if his children ate from dumpsters so long as it doesn't reflect on him. All narcs are like this. Your son deserves better, don't fall for her foolishness. You got this 👍 💪

@@xxkissmeketutxx Thank you very much for your care. This means a lot. Good luck!

@darubaru you're very welcome. I hope you realised you and your son are better than that and are loving your best lives 💃🩷

The idealized introject is preserved, but the fantasy is gone.

Thank you 🙏🏻. Does narcissist interact with that idealised preserved introject ?

@@samvaknin isnt the fantasy and idealized preserved introject ..the same thing?!

@@mauj2844 Yes. Hence the hoovering. Search the channel.

@@onedividedbyzero No. The introject is like an actor in a movie. The shared fantasy is the movie.

By watching the relevant videos on my channel.

Search the shared fantasy playlist.

If pay why not.

I don't think that attraction to prostitutes is a trait you should use to diagnose or reliably identify a narcissist. Some people like prostitutes, some don't. Some are narcissists, some aren't. I would look for other signs.

I am attracted to many of them. Anybody who is strong and outside of the social norms somehow attacts me! For a while... :)

But to me prostitutes have a non-sexual attraction. I like to be good friends with them. Some sex every now and then wouldn't hurt of course 😅

I think NPD's are attracted to wounded people. Wounded people are in all walks of life but are more prevalent in specific walks. NPD's, I believe, are very selective and predatory. Like artificial intelligence, they learn through life experiences. I think they learn to identify physical/social/emotional traits associated with people they can dominate or satisfy their needs for narcissistic supply. So, I think NPD's understand they're more likely to be rewarded by looking in specific places. I'm still learning about them so if I'm off please don't hesitate to correct me.
