Yes..I've known one for some time and had a "friendship" with one..
The other one is a family number.
I was able to say NO to them both and cut all emotional cords with them.
Hi Dani I have done the saying no thing...a hundred times over. Now that he can't get through to me anymore he is resorting to pestering my friends...
He on one hand makes himself out to be Mr perfect...while telling lies about me. My friends said if they didn't know me already they would have been taken in by him too
deedee123xo: Yup I can relate to that.....ugly, worthless, won't leave you alone, they are better than you....speak to you as if your a child and they are master.
There should be an island for these people.
I can relate to those things listed too.I never had the experience in dealing with a narcissistic person before so I didn't know the signs to look for.I thought that he was just upset with me or something.
CosmosDazzler: Yes I read her post. Now I’d like to know how this characteristic manifests itself in people, is it generic, a bad experience etc that sets it off?
That's what I'm hoping to find out too
There was a thread about this before..but can't find it.

Then your friends need to tell him to get lost....mine called my family behind my back and did the same thing until they finally told him to beat it....but of course he also told them not to tell me and they didn't for a long time.....

Nor I BW. So completely at a loss as to how to deal with it. Not to pry but he must have had a narcissistic parent too...just wondering from mine how he got to be that way....I suspected his brother as one also ...when together the way they spoke about some people was a little shocking. Everything was about looks to them....as if the better looking you are the better a person you are

That's done now too.
Just on egg shells as to what's next. He scaveneged Facebook to get to people who may know me before....also had friends 'seek me out'....so I just would think next stop is move country

Baffling
Hi older sister displayed narcissistic behavior also.Yes it is baffling to say the least.
No one needs to survive any type of relationship. Just because someone chose to be a lunetic and drops by in your life doesn't mean you need to drag it as far as you can, there is a thing called "divorce ", clear yourself as fast as you can, they say "it's better to turn half way from the road than full".

I moved to the next city and im still leary about letting people know where I live because someone or other he has always been able to keep tabs on me.....

Perhaps check out anything online from those who suffer from this personality trait, or disorder as some may call it, and have first hand experience from the other side of the coin.
deedee123xo: I, like many here, I asumer, have dated like types of personalities. That was my problem most of my life...believing my partner should possess the same qualities and character traits as myself. I was in a cycle of failed, short-lived relationships for most of my life. It wasn't until I found my opposite that I came to understand that I need that balance to bring out the best me possible.
But how many have dated and survived dating a narcissistic man/woman.
What was your experience should you choose to share.
I dated one briefly in 2016. Then went on to be sucked in time after time since....'hoovering' is the term used when they use pity and manipulation to get you to go back to them.
How have you managed to break free from this type of personality and are you always looking over your shoulder for when they inevitably come back.
well if he does im not afraid to take action...I shoulda had him charged long ago but there was too much going on at the time....that's the other thing I was gonna say....you made need to take some kind of action...police or otherwise before he will leave you alone.....
