A narcissist is someone who was raised to seek their parents' validation and, as an adult, continues to need constant reassurance. Narcissists' fear of being disliked is so great that they try to manipulate others into validating them, ironically becoming unlikable. The distain narcissists experience from others causes them to need validation even more, creating a vicious cycle of pushing others away and becoming even more desperate for praise.
1: Every time my girlfriend and I fight she starts talking about how horrible she is and questioning if I love her.
2: Sounds like textbook narcissist. She is trying to get validation out of you and to avoid coming to a compromise. You should dump her.
1: Yeah, I think I'll do that later tonight.
A person that is entitled and views everyone as someone they can manipulate or benefit from. Will dispose people the moment they have gotten what they wanted.
I don’t evenget a word in when talking to Luca all he does is talk about himself since he’s such a narcissist
Also called "covert narcissist", inverted narcissist is a co-dependent who depends exclusively on narcissists (narcissist-co-dependent).
The inverted narcissist craves to be in a relationship with a narcissist, regardless of any abuse inflicted on her. She actively seeks relationships with narcissists and only with narcissists, no matter what her (bitter and traumatic) past experience has been. She feels empty and unhappy in relationships with non-narcissists.
