3 reasons why you can’t win with a narcissist
Is there someone in your life that is a narcissist? Do they give off the impression that they own the world and everyone else is there to simply tend to their needs?
Self-important and conceited, the narcissist exaggerates accomplishments, requires endless praise, and has an uncanny ability to quash the achievements of others. They lack empathy and don’t seem aware that you are a whole person with your own needs. In fact, you’re only a useful tool, something to extract admiration from. The narcissist believes they’re entitled to everything, including your time, your emotions, and your self-esteem.
