| Happy Birthday my little sailor girl :) |
Since we have had many discussions about this subject Alikona:
#2 Had a visit with my psychiatrist/drug dealer. I came into his office and we discussed Narcissism for 15 minutes and then I paid him $75. He said it's genetic ? He said that its not that parents keep telling their kids over and over how special they are. He also said that it's a sign of insecurity OR people just really believe that they are fabulous. Also, they said they never have successful marriages. I thought , you know, in case you aren't Alikona you might like reading about them. Also, you might even be one and denial of it..."that's interesting Gretchen" Oh, and Alikona if your British or you are pretending to be British :
Oh that’s interesting’ really means ‘I literally could not care less about what you’re saying’
- An obvious self-focus in interpersonal exchanges
- Problems in sustaining satisfying relationships
- A lack of psychological awareness
- Difficulty with empathy
- Problems distinguishing the self from others
- Hypersensitivity to any insults or imagined insults
- Vulnerability to shame rather than guilt
- Haughty body language
- Flattery towards people who admire and affirm them
- Detesting those who do not admire them
- Using other people without considering the cost of doing so
- Pretending to be more important than they really are
- Bragging (subtly but persistently) and exaggerating their achievements
- Claiming to be an "expert" at many things
- Inability to view the world from the perspective of other people
- Denial of remorse and gratitude
