This is a very good compilation of how narcissists work and the things they do to gain control.
So many examples of what BMs and exs do all the time.

It's sad that my first thought on reading this was 'sounds like politics.' Sad

I listed them off to DH along with specific examples of each. Perhaps now he will be more cautious when dealing with her and her tricks.

Wow! I have talked with SO about BM and narcissism. But this article solidifies that thought. This article could be a case study of HER!

I have a question for people who know more about this than I do. Can a child learn these types of behaviors from a parent without actually becoming a narcissist themselves? I know someone who had a lot of these characteristics and then had a life-changing event occur. Since that event, they show very little if any of these characteristics

I think kids can be raised to be entitled and to only think of themselves.
Narcissists are a different breed, they have no feelings of empathy. They will create drama for their own entertainment.
