This was such a well written article and it applies equally to men and women. I had to share it with everyone. We’ve all probably met at least one narcissist online or off.
Thank you for sharing
Thank you, I think everyone should be aware of what to look for especially online. I was unfortunate to meet one a few years ago, a friend of friends at their party. I ended the relationship after a few months but I wouldn’t wish that on anyone! Be alert!
It’ll be like a whirlwind and you won’t even realise you’ve been caught up in it. I didn’t know what a narcissist was, if I’d have known I’d have been able to tick the boxes very quickly and ran very fast in the first week!I’m sorry you had that experience, I took had that experience and it went much further. Almost ruined my life, you dodged a bullet.
Since then I’ve met a few online, and now I see the patterns. It’s important to take care of yourself and know these men and women are especially adept with online relationships.I was in a relationship for 5 years with someone I met online. It was very abusive. At first he love bombed so hard. I had just come out of a failed marriage where I was treated like a roommate. There wasn’t a lot of affection from him at all. So, I got swept up in it so fast. I hadn’t had any experience with a narcissist or with abusive relationships. I was vas very naive and it almost cost me my life
Very interesting read.

I’m glad that both of you weren’t ruined and are still around to give this guy some grief.😜😂🤣🤗I had to look the definition up, lol. I found it interesting. I do think highly of myself, though don’t require admiration, I do believe many are inferior and I definitely lack empathy for others. I’m not sure I struggle with relationships and I’m never overwhelmed with sadness.
So does that mean I’m only half nacassisstic?
@natasha Interesting read. Thanks for posting.
I found the replies to your article interesting as well and would add some other potential signs. Those who are excessively on chat which correlates to a heavy need for attention/validation, a need for constant interaction and belief that everyone wants a reply from them; those who have multiple unsuccessful relationships (many failed relationships or marriages, though narcissists don’t see this, as they see the failure on the partner’s part and don’t take ownership).
