They usually begin in some kind of crisis mode. But it is just shocking to me how entirely OPPOSITE her true character is from the one she elements, and how incredibly good she is at conveying a convincing performance of her false self. You are responsible for yourself first. They also remember things as completely good and wonderful or as bad and horrible. We've all had tragedies. Do take seriously, though, the caballeros of abusive people. But most narcissists project their anxiety onto their closest loved ones, accusing them of being negative, unsupportive, mentally ill, not putting them first, not responding to their needs, or being selfish. And the only way you can please this person or get into their good books is by shaming yourself and feeling worse about yourself.
How many red flags do you need in order to run away and save yourself? How about an army of red flags? Well, let me give you a few, 30 to be exact; dead give-aways you are dating a Narcissist. Time will tell, his mask will drop, that is why he is pushing for commitment, he wants to hook you before you see the real person under the facade. True love does not fade the longer you date, it grows stronger. So here they are……. The biggest number one without fail sign of a narcissist is how they sweep you off your feet at the beginning of the relationship. They fall in love very quickly, they have never loved anyone like they love you, and you are perfect in their eyes. He seems too good to be true. He wants to know everything about you, is very interested in learning about your childhood, your hopes and dreams, your past relationships. He will reveal a few of his indiscretions and weaknesses so you feel safe being open and honest with him. He wants to get to know you alright, just not for the reason you think. He is arming his arsenal with ammo for later down the road to use against you. By sharing some of his faults he makes you think he is honest, why would he lie about something insignificant when he was so honest about that? That is until he stopped sleeping with me a year or 2 into the relationship and kept telling me he loved me and I was being overly sensitive and paranoid 5. Quickly takes you to meet the family. Plasters pictures of the two of you all over his Facebook he knows his ex will be checking his FB and he wants twist the knife in her heart. It is one thing if a guy introduces you to his friends but it is another thing if he purposely shows you off in ways that it will get back to his ex. A decent person does not purposely hurt their ex and if he expects you to participate in vengeful acts against his ex it is a dead give-away that someday you will find yourself in the same boat. Very forceful sexually and wants sex within the first date or two, barely taking no for an answer. In the beginning he was highly sexual, wanting sex often, 2-3 times a day everyday. They are either between jobs or just started a new job and quite possibly new to town. If he has an ex who is calling and distraught over their breakup and he tells you she has fatal attraction, he is trying to get rid of her and you witness him not answering his phone, not returning texts, and he says he is afraid of what she will do, that she is spreading lies about him and stalking him and he is afraid she will tell you lies about him; do NOT assume she is a psycho and sorry she lost him. In his past relationships, at work, even with his family he is always doing all the work, the only one putting in an effort, he is holding the company together or the relationship. Changes jobs many times, gets bored easily, accused of stealing, someone at work is jealous of him and lying about him. Past accomplishments or experiences that are just a little too far-fetched or too good to be true. To read his resume or hear about his life it all sounds just a little or a lot far-fetched. He is larger than life, done so much. He might even tearfully admit to hitting his ex, but once again it will be tearfully and he was driven to it by her psychotic rages. More than likely he appears almost naive and helpless, and makes you feel like you want to take care of him. I felt that he loved me more than I loved him, I almost felt at an unfair advantage. It is a HUGE boost to his ego to take an independent self-sufficient woman and make her dependent on him. DO NOT give up your independence, it starts slowly, he will sabotage your vehicle, get you fired, ask you to quit work or go into business with him. Once you lose your job you are dependent on him and it is so much harder to get away. He talks about the future with you in it, in subtle ways, he might even propose early, but whether or not he proposes he makes it clear that he wants you in his life in the future and is not afraid of commitment. They will often let a little tid bit of truth slip out but you may miss it if you are not aware. Almost like he is giving you a warning. BIG HOOK, he is testing you 23. Insists on sleeping snuggled up all night and points it out to you, how he has never been able to sleep wrapped up with someone like that before. In his past relationships they would roll over and go to sleep but with you it is different. He is setting you up for when down the road he punishes you by refusing to come to bed or sleeps on the other side of the bed not touching you all night 24. Tests your reaction to situations. Our staff parties were on the same night and we agreed to go to my dinner and then his for the dancing and partying, but we never made it to my party. We ended up staying most of the night and I felt uncomfortable because I was under dressed and he was the life of the party. For example he would say he was really close friends with someone but when I met them they seemed to barely know him. Then we went to his family for New Years Eve, he had told me he was adopted and had just met his biological family a few years earlier and moved from Sask. To BC to be with them he had told me how great they were, welcoming, warm and fun-loving people and how much they all loved him. But we got there and I immediately felt an undercurrent, an elephant in the room that no one was really talking about but every one was walking around. He told me that he used to visit the family every weekend and call his mom several times a day and since meeting me he had stopped and it bothered his mom, but she would get over it. His one full blood sister got drunk and started telling me that my ex was a real asshole. Our first conversation was over the phone and he had told me he was looking at the ocean as we spoke, making it sound like he was in his house. He had gone to the mainland to a drug rehab and was just starting to rebuild the family relationship. I never would have gone if I would have known all the sordid details, no wonder I felt uncomfortable! I never did see any furniture and later he said it got stolen or something feeble like that. Very early in the relationship he calls you by a pet name, Babe or Baby seems to be a popular choice. All he needs is a good woman to believe in him. He will say he loves you early in the relationship, he has never met a woman like you, you are different from any woman he has ever known, you are special, he can be himself with you, he thought he was in love before but now he knows what real love feels like. You are soul mates, the ying to his yang. You feel he is your soul mate, you have never felt this kind of connection with someone, no one has ever loved you so completely just the way you are, unconditionally and you are determined to show him how much you love and appreciate him. You cannot believe your good fortune to have met this wonderful man. So I accepted that I had misunderstood what he had said, or accepted his feeble explanations for discrepancies in his story. This list is so spot on. I have all 30 red flags. My gut told me it was wrong, but I explained the red flags away. Since we moved in together and during our marriage so far, he has had three surgeries. Had shoulder surgery, then cancer surgery in his neck, then had a heart attack. So for the first three years of marriage, I was taking care of him, being the ultimate supporter and care giver. He has been basically healthy for two years now and I see the exact narcissistic traits coming out in spades. Good luck to all reading this thread.
