 Did you know this about the narcissist in this video? I am going to reveal to you five secrets about narcissists that they don't want you to know Narcissists are manipulative They're pathological liars They're very good at hiding things They know how to make themselves look good So your best defense against them is knowledge You need to understand the narcissist You need to learn things about them So here are five things that narcissists try to hide from people one They are not confident They act confident They act like they have it all together They act like they know everything They have an exaggerated sense of their own abilities and importance They think they're better than they actually are But that only exists on the surface Deep down they're actually very insecure They're very unsure of themselves They created this deceptive outward appearance Of being admired and loved To conceal their less pleasant reality They don't want anyone to know about who they really are Because it would make them feel weak and inferior Two They don't see you as a real person They see you as an object that exists to meet their needs They don't see you as a real person And that is why they don't respect you Because they don't care about who you are as a person Their only concern is what you can do for them Which is why they're incapable of establishing a deep connection with anyone Because they don't care about anyone but themselves It's all about their self-interest and needs There's no such thing as a relationship with a narcissist It's a transaction They use people to make themselves feel more important They rob you And they discard you once they've drained you of everything you have Because your value to them is determined by your usefulness If you're no longer of any use to them they will devalue you They will treat you with contempt As though you're worthless and beneath their consideration Because all they care about is what you can do for them And if you can't or won't do anything for them you're no good 3. They are sadistic We have empathy We feel other people's pain But narcissists do not feel your pain Hurting you does not hurt them They don't regret anything they do to you Because they don't care about anyone but themselves They derive pleasure from inflicting pain Suffering and humiliation on you It makes them feel better about themselves Which is why they will make you seem unimportant They will compare you to other people They will make you feel small They will invalidate how you feel about something Because they know you don't like it They know that it hurts you And they get off on your pain It makes them feel good Which is why they will start arguments for no reason It makes them feel powerful and important It makes them feel superior And as though they matter to you They don't know what they want Narcissists are good at acting like they've got it all figured out As though they know exactly what they want And they know exactly what they need to do to get there But their actions should reveal to you That they actually don't know what they want They engage in escapism They constantly try to escape from reality They're trying to escape the emptiness they feel inside Which is why many of them turn to addictions They overly indulge in alcohol, drugs, food, chopping and gambling They become self-destructive They will sabotage things that might be good for them Just to get validation to feel better about themselves 5. They are envious of your success Narcissists are very competitive They have to be the best They have to win at all costs They can't stand to see you surpassing them They hate the idea of you being better than them at anything They see your success as a threat to their false image It triggers them to reflect on how worthless they feel Which may lead them to ruin your reputation These are just 5 things that you may not have known about the narcissist Narcissists are excellent actors They portray an image of themselves that is the exact opposite of how they actually are They are very meditative and persuasive They can make people believe in something that is not true If you have anything else that you would like to add to this list Let me know in the comments below Thank you for watching I hope this video resonates with you Please like, comment, share and subscribe If you would like to donate My behavioural link is in the video description Coaching inquiries You can email me at coaching at Narcissist.ca.uk Thank you for watching and I'll talk to you soon
