One2note: Never.. always seen the bigger picture when pursuing a relationship. Luckily , my blood flow circulation, extended to my brain!!
Narcissist is never attracted to another Narcissist, they recognise each other as if they watch their own reflection in the mirror... Narcissist is only attracted to Co- dependent empathic person !
It's a very "trendy" subject out here at the moment.
Yes, there might be a small percentage of the population that are narcissists. Looking at some of the traits, I do suspect that my grandmother was one. She also was a lonely women because of her own doing, people stayed away from her once they saw through her.
I do believe that there are a lot of selfish a**hole out there - it's a choice to behave that way and not something they can't do anything about so I would be careful to call too many people narcissists.
Most definitely people that disagree with CS posters portraying themselves here as "angels" (yeah right ) are not narcissistic - they just don't buy into the crap of some posters (who might be narcissistic themselves even if there is nothing "covert" about them).
KNenagh: I think most people actually can figure that one out galrads.
I obviously don’t. It’s hard for me to distinguish real from fake on-line personalities on here. I think there’s a lot of people who may fit into the narci mold on cs but I don’t want to be prejudiced. Like the obnoxious people complaining about Americans all the time but I think they just hit too many bottles of alcohol before logging into cs instead.
galrads: Thanks but, I still don’t have a clue who you are talking about with regards to narcissistic behaviour. I sure hope no one finds me sweet..,,,,
Stuff like this is down to perception and that's an individual thing.
galrads: Anyone ever known anyone else with serious acute Narcissism behavior? I do. Took awhile to figure out their behavior. Actions and words don’t match up. They are all alike. They can really mess with people, usually quietly over time. Relationships with them can truely be “psychological warfare.”
If yiu’re interested, here’s a good video with explanation and summary about Covert Narcissists. Worth a watch. Sorry if you can’t. They are out there.....
Covert Narcissists lives of discord and presenting themselves as angels or "empathetic" (those are idiotic ones). I have met plenty people with those characteristics and its easy to "see" them, and to deal with them as they are the most sorry and most needy. Is fuel on the principle of " Someone wants attention and someone else gives it,".
In CS, easy to find them (look at the threads, and some of "producers". Most are based on narcissism traits, as they are based on "discussion" of nothing, beside themselves or the subject they want to promote.
Tactics used varies but most are on deflecting, triangulation, denial, changing the subject, pretending that they the most caring, etc (plenty articles google): most are .pathological liars, and want always to be the center of attention.
We all need attention from one another, that is something fundamentally human. The balance of "want/get attention" is essential for the "abnormal s" to "survive" the rest of human BS.

btw, are you sure you are not one? Just checking
I’m always right and you’re wrong Bogart and you don’t spend enough time in the forums. You are always critical of me but the rules don’t apply to me. If I get angry it’s all because of you.

Get off your high horse. Galrad,you still eating too much taleggio cheese,
machiavellianism is the strategy, narcissism is the fuel, and psychopathy is the execution - Gotta admire the creativity though
